Hadith 374
۞
374. Narrated to us Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad Bin Isa, from Al-Hassan Bin Ali, from Safwaan, from Muhammad Bin Ziyad Bin Isa, from Al-Husayn Bin Mus’ab, who has said
Abu Abdullah (asws) has said: ‘Amir-ul-Momineen (asws) said: ‘I (asws) had pledged allegiance to the Rasool Allah (saww), to be (loyal) in the hardship, and ease, and the freedom, and the restriction, until such time Al-Islam spreads and becomes strong’. And Ali (asws) took from them (Shites) (a Covenant) that they shall prevent from Muhammad (saww) and his (saww) descendants, what they had prevented themselves as well as their own children from. So I (asws) also took from them (Shites). Rescued was the one who was rescued, and destroyed was the one who was destroyed’.
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ زِيَادِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ مُصْعَبٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (عليه السلام) قَالَ
قَالَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ (عليه السلام) كُنْتُ أُبَايِعُ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ (صلى الله عليه وآله) عَلَى الْعُسْرِ وَ الْيُسْرِ وَ الْبَسْطِ وَ الْكُرْهِ إِلَى أَنْ كَثُرَ الْإِسْلَامُ وَ كَثُفَ قَالَ وَ أَخَذَ عَلَيْهِمْ عَلِيٌّ (عليه السلام) أَنْ يَمْنَعُوا مُحَمَّداً وَ ذُرِّيَّتَهُ مِمَّا يَمْنَعُونَ مِنْهُ أَنْفُسَهُمْ وَ ذَرَارِيَّهُمْ فَأَخَذْتُهَا عَلَيْهِمْ نَجَا مَنْ نَجَا وَ هَلَكَ مَنْ هَلَكَ.
