13 – Ismaʿil ibn Ibrahim narrated to us; Hibban ibn ʿAli al-ʿUmari narrated, from Saʿd—meaning Ibn Tarif—from al-Usbaʿ ibn Nubatah, who said:
Whenever ʿAli entered the latrine he would say, “In the name of Allah, the Preserver, the Deliverer.” When he came out, he would pass his hands over his abdomen and then say, “What a blessing this is—if only people knew how to thank for it.”
١٣ - حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، حَدَّثَنَا حِبَّانُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ الْعُمَرِيُّ، عَنْ سَعْدٍ يَعْنِي ابْنَ طَرِيفٍ، عَنِ الْأُصْبَعِ بْنِ نُبَاتَةَ، قَالَ: كَانَ عَلِيٌّ إِذَا دَخَلَ الْخَلَاءَ قَالَ: بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الْحَافِظِ الْمُؤَدِّي، وَإِذَا خَرَجَ مَسَحَ بِيَدَيْهِ بَطْنَهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ: يَا لَهَا مِنْ نِعْمَةٍ لَوْ يَعْلَمُ الْعِبَادُ شُكْرَهَا "
