1 hadith
سَهْلٌ عَنِ ابْنِ فَضَّالٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ عُقْبَةَ وَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ بُكَيْرٍ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) يَقُولُ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ صَارَتْ فِرْقَةٌ مُرْجِئَةً وَ صَارَتْ فِرْقَةٌ حَرُورِيَّةً وَ صَارَتْ فِرْقَةٌ قَدَرِيَّةً وَ سُمِّيتُمُ التُّرَابِيَّةَ وَ شِيعَةَ عَلِيٍّ أَمَا وَ اللَّهِ مَا هُوَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ وَ رَسُولُهُ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) وَ آلُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ( عليهم السلام ) وَ شِيعَةُ آلِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) وَ مَا النَّاسُ إِلَّا هُمْ كَانَ عَلِيٌّ ( عليه السلام ) أَفْضَلَ النَّاسِ بَعْدَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) وَ أَوْلَى النَّاسِ بِالنَّاسِ حَتَّى قَالَهَا ثَلَاثاً .
36. Sahl, from Ibn Fazzaal, from Ali Bin Uqba and Abdullah Bin Bukeyr, from Saeed Bin Yasaar who said: ‘I heard Abu Abdullah عليه الصلاة والسلام saying: ‘The Praise is to Allah عز وجل. They have become the Murjiyya sect, and the Haruriyya sect, and the Qadiriyya sect, and you have been named as the Tarabiyya and the Shiites of Ali عليه الصلاة والسلام. But, by Allah عز وجل and what is that except for that there is no god except Allah عز وجل, One with no associates to Him عز وجل, and His عز وجل Messenger صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم, and the Progeny عليه الصلاة والسلام of the Messenger, and the Shiites of the progeny عليه الصلاة والسلام of the Messenger صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم of Allah عز وجل. And what are the people except that it was Ali عليه الصلاة والسلام the best of the people after the Messenger صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم of Allah عز وجل, and the highest of the people than the people themselves’. He عليه الصلاة والسلام said it three times.
