Hadith 513
۞
13. Abu Ali al-Ash’ariy has narrated from Muhammad ibn ‘Abd al-Jabbar from Safwan ibn Yahya from abu al-Mustahal from Muhammad ibn Hanzalah who has said the following
“Once I said to abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), ‘May Allah keep my soul in the service of your cause, I have heard a Hadith from your followers and servants who narrate from your father.’ He then asked, ’What is it?’ I replied, ‘They think that he said, “One should be proud of his affairs being as what we believe in when his soul reaches here.’” He (the Imam) said, ‘Yes, when that happens, the Holy Prophet of Allah comes, Ali comes, Gabriel comes and the angel of death comes. That angel then asks Ali (a.s.), “O Ali, did so and so love you and your family?” He says, “Yes, he loved us and denounced our enemies.” Then the Holy Prophet says this to Gabriel and Gabriel raises this to Allah, the Majestic, the Glorious.’”
13ـ أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الأشْعَرِيُّ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْجَبَّارِ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَبِي الْمُسْتَهِلِّ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ حَنْظَلَةَ قَالَ
قُلْتُ لأَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ الْسَّلام) جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ حَدِيثٌ سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْ بَعْضِ شِيعَتِكَ وَمَوَالِيكَ يَرْوِيهِ عَنْ أَبِيكَ قَالَ وَمَا هُوَ قُلْتُ زَعَمُوا أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَقُولُ أَغْبَطُ مَا يَكُونُ امْرُؤٌ بِمَا نَحْنُ عَلَيْهِ إِذَا كَانَتِ النَّفْسُ فِي هَذِهِ فَقَالَ نَعَمْ إِذَا كَانَ ذَلِكَ أَتَاهُ نَبِيُّ الله وَأَتَاهُ عَلِيٌّ وَأَتَاهُ جَبْرَئِيلُ وَأَتَاهُ مَلَكُ الْمَوْتِ (عَلَيْهِ الْسَّلام) فَيَقُولُ ذَلِكَ الْمَلَكُ لِعَلِيٍّ (عَلَيْهِ الْسَّلام) يَا عَلِيُّ إِنَّ فُلاَناً كَانَ مُوَالِياً لَكَ وَلأَهْلِ بَيْتِكَ فَيَقُولُ نَعَمْ كَانَ يَتَوَلاَّنَا وَيَتَبَرَّأُ مِنْ عَدُوِّنَا فَيَقُولُ ذَلِكَ نَبِيُّ الله لِجَبْرَئِيلَ فَيَرْفَعُ ذَلِكَ جَبْرَئِيلُ إِلَى الله عَزَّ وَجَلَّ.
