1 hadith
مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحَكَمِ عَنْ مَنْصُورِ بْنِ يُونُسَ عَنْ عَنْبَسَةَ بْنِ مُصْعَبٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (عليه السلام) يَقُولُ أَشْكُو إِلَى اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ وَحْدَتِي وَ تَقَلْقُلِي بَيْنَ أَهْلِ الْمَدِينَةِ حَتَّى تَقْدَمُوا وَ أَرَاكُمْ وَ آنَسَ بِكُمْ فَلَيْتَ هَذِهِ الطَّاغِيَةَ أَذِنَ لِي فَأَتَّخِذَ قَصْراً فِي الطَّائِفِ فَسَكَنْتُهُ وَ أَسْكَنْتُكُمْ مَعِيَ وَ أَضْمَنَ لَهُ أَنْ لَا يَجِي‏ءَ مِنْ نَاحِيَتِنَا مَكْرُوهٌ أَبَداً.
261. Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad Bin Isa, from Ali Bin Al-Hakam, from Mansour Bin Yunus, from Anbasa Bin Mus’ab who said: I heard Abu Abdullah عليه الصلاة والسلام saying: ‘I complain to Allah عز وجل Mighty and Majestic of my loneliness, and restlessness among the people of Al-Medina, until you (Shi'ites) come over and I see you, and be comforted by you. If only this tyrant would allow me, so I would take a fort in Al-Ta'if, so I would dwell in it and you would all dwell in it with me. I would guarantee to him that there would not come from our area any harm to him ever’.
