Fadail al-Sahabah li-Ahmad ibn Hanbal - Ahmad Ibn Hanbal - (1/234)

287 – ‘Abd Allāh narrated to us: Ibrāhīm ibn Sa‘īd al-Tabarī al-Jawharī told me: Sa‘īd ibn Muhammad al-Warrāq narrated to us: Fudayl ibn Ghazwān narrated to us: Abū al-Mughīrah al-Dhuhlī narrated to us, saying: Fulfulah told me: I heard al-Hasan ibn ‘Alī say:

“I saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ—meaning in a dream—clinging to the Throne. Then I saw Abū Bakr holding the Messenger of Allah ﷺ by the waist. Then I saw ‘Umar holding Abū Bakr by the waist. Then I saw ‘Uthmān holding ‘Umar by the waist. Then I saw blood pouring down from heaven to earth.”

Al-Hasan related this account in the presence of some Shī‘ah, who asked, “Did you not see ‘Alī?”

He replied, “There was no one I would have loved more than ‘Alī to see holding the Messenger of Allah by the waist. But it was only a dream.”

٢٨٧ - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ الطَّبَرِيُّ الْجَوْهَرِيُّ قثنا سَعِيدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْوَرَّاقُ قثنا فُضَيْلُ بْنُ غَزْوَانَ قثنا أَبُو الْمُغِيرَةِ الذُّهْلِيُّ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي فُلْفُلَةُ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ الْحَسَنَ بْنَ عَلِيٍّ قَالَ: رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَعْنِي: فِي الْمَنَامِ - مُتَعَلِّقًا بِالْعَرْشِ، ثُمَّ رَأَيْتُ أَبَا بَكْرٍ أَخَذَ بِحِقْوَيْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ، ثُمَّ رَأَيْتُ عُمَرَ أَخَذَ بِحِقْوَيْ أَبِي بَكْرٍ، ثُمَّ رَأَيْتُ عُثْمَانَ أَخَذَ بِحِقْوَيْ عُمَرَ، ثُمَّ رَأَيْتُ الدَّمَ مُنْصَبًّا مِنَ السَّمَاءِ إِلَى الْأَرْضِ. فَحَدَّثَ الْحَسَنُ بِهَذَا الْحَدِيثِ وَعِنْدَهُ نَاسٌ مِنَ الشِّيعَةِ، فَقَالُوا: مَا رَأَيْتَ عَلِيًّا؟ قَالَ: مَا كَانَ أَحَدٌ أَحَبَّ إِلَيَّ أَنْ أَرَاهُ أَخَذَ بِحِقْوَيْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ مِنْ عَلِيٍّ، وَلَكِنْ إِنَّمَا هِيَ رُؤْيَا.
