Hadith #156

Arabic Text

English Translation

Yaʿqūb ibn Ibrāhīm narrated to us, my father narrated to us, Muḥammad ibn Isḥāq narrated to us, from Abān ibn Ṣāliḥ, from al-Faḍl ibn ʿAbdillāh ibn Maʿqil ibn Sinān, from ʿAbdullāh ibn Niyār al-Aslamī, from ʿAmr ibn Shaʾs al-Aslamī — and he was one of those who had been at Ḥudaybiyyah — who said: I went out with ʿAlī ibn Abī Ṭālib to Yemen, and he was harsh with me during the journey until I felt resentment toward him. When I returned, I complained about him in the mosque until it reached the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ. I entered the mosque one morning and the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ was among a group of his Companions. When he saw me, he stared at me until I sat down. He said: 'O ʿAmr, by Allāh you have hurt me.' I said: 'I seek refuge in Allāh from hurting you, O Messenger of Allāh!' He said: 'Indeed, whoever hurts ʿAlī has hurt me.'
