حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ عَنْ أَبِي عَمْرٍو الْقَسْمَلِيِّ عَنْ ابْنَةِ أُهْبَانَ أَنَّ عَلِيَّ بْنَ أَبِي طَالِبٍ أَتَى أُهْبَانَ فَقَالَ مَا يَمْنَعُكَ مِنْ اتِّبَاعِي فَقَالَ أَوْصَانِي خَلِيلِي وَابْنُ عَمِّكِ يَعْنِي رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ سَتَكُونُ فِتَنٌ وَفُرْقَةٌ فَإِذَا كَانَ ذَلِكَ فَاكْسِرْ سَيْفَكَ وَاتَّخِذْ سَيْفًا مِنْ خَشَبٍ فَقَدْ وَقَعَتْ الْفِتْنَةُ وَالْفُرْقَةُ وَكَسَرْتُ سَيْفِي وَاتَّخَذْتُ سَيْفًا مِنْ خَشَبٍ وَأَمَرَ أَهْلَهُ حِينَ ثَقُلَ أَنْ يُكَفِّنُوهُ وَلَا يُلْبِسُوهُ قَمِيصًا قَالَ فَأَلْبَسْنَاهُ قَمِيصًا فَأَصْبَحْنَا وَالْقَمِيصُ عَلَى الْمِشْجَبِ.
الترجمة الإنجليزية
The daughter of Uhban narrated that Ali ibn Abi Talib came to Uhban and said: 'What prevents you from following me?' He said: 'My close friend and your cousin - meaning the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) - advised me, saying: There will be tribulations and division. When that happens, break your sword and take a sword of wood. The tribulation and division have occurred, so I broke my sword and took a sword of wood.' And he instructed his family when he became gravely ill to shroud him and not put a shirt on him. She said: 'But we put a shirt on him, and when morning came, the shirt was on the clothes rack.'
