ʿAlī b. Ibrāhīm, from his father, from Muḥammad b. Sinān, from Ziyād al-Makfūf, from ʿAbd Allāh b. Abī ʿUqba the poet, who narrated: “I heard Amīr al-Muʾminīn, ʿAlī b. Abī Ṭālib عليه السلام saying: “It is as though I see you wandering as camels wander in search of pasture, but you will not find it, o’ assembly of the Shīʿa.” Something like this has also been transmitted from Saʿd b. ʿAbd Allāh, from Muḥammad b. al-Ḥusayn b. Abī’l-Khaṭṭāb, from Muḥammad b. Sinān, from Abī’l-Jārūd Ziyād b. al-Mundhir, from the poet ʿAbd Allāh.
