حدثنا أبو محمد عمار بن الحسين - رضي الله عنه - قال: حدثنا علي بن محمد بن عصمة، قال: حدثنا أحمد بن محمد الطبري بمكة، قال: حدثنا محمد بن الفضل، عن محمد بن عبد الملك بن أبي الشوارب   القرشي، عن ابن سليمان، عن حميد الطويل، عن أنس بن مالك، قال: كنت عند علي بن أبي طالب عليه السلام في الشهر الذي أصيب فيه وهو شهر رمضان فدعا ابنه الحسن عليه السلام ثم قال: يا أبا محمد اعل المنبر فاحمد الله كثيرا، وأثن عليه، واذكر جدك رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله بأحسن الذكر، وقل: لعن الله ولدا عق أبويه، لعن الله ولدا عق أبويه، لعن الله ولدا عق أبويه، لعن الله عبدا أبق من مواليه، لعن الله غنما ضلت عن الراعي وانزل. فلما فرغ من خطبته ونزل اجتمع الناس إليه فقالوا: يا ابن أمير المؤمنين وابن بنت رسول الله نبئنا [الجواب] فقال: الجواب على أمير المؤمنين عليه السلام، فقال أمير المؤمنين: إني كنت مع النبي صلى الله عليه وآله في صلاة صلاها فضرب بيده اليمنى إلى يدي اليمنى فاجتذبها فضمها إلى صدره ضما شديدا ثم قال لي: يا علي، قلت: لبيك يا رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله، قال: أنا وأنت أبوا هذه الأمة، فلعن الله من عقنا، قل: آمين، قلت: آمين. ثم قال: أنا و أنت موليا هذه الأمة فلعن الله من أبق عنا، قل: آمين، قلت: آمين، ثم قال: أنا وأنت راعيا هذه الأمة فلعن الله من ضل عنا، قل: آمين، قال أمير المؤمنين عليه السلام: وسمعت قائلين يقولان معي: " آمين " فقلت: يا رسول الله ومن القائلان معي " آمين "؟ قال: جبرئيل وميكائيل عليهما السلام.

1.	We were told by Abu Muhammed, Ammar bin Hussain, may Allah be pleased with him, that he said: We were told by Ali bin Muhammed bin Isma, that he said: We were told by Ahmad bin Muhammed al-Tabari in Mecca, that he said: We were told by Muhammed bin Fadl, from Muhammed bin Abdul-Malik bin Abi’sh-Shawarib al-Qurashi, from Ibn Sulayman, from Hameed al-Tuweel, from Anas bin Malik, that he said: I was at the place of Ali bin Abi Talib, peace be upon him, during the month in which he was afflicted, that is the month of Ramadan, and he called for his son, Hasan, peace be upon him, and then said: O father of Muhammed, get on the pulpit, praise Allah much, commend Him, mention your grandfather, the Messenger of Allah, Allah’s blessings be upon him and his Family, by the best of mentioning, and say: May Allah curse a son who disobeys his parents, may Allah curse a son who disobeys his parents, may Allah curse a son who disobeys his parents! May Allah curse a slave who flees from his masters, may Allah curse a slave who flees from his masters, may Allah curse a slave who flees from his masters! May Allah curse sheep who strayed from the shepherd. Then step down. When he was finished with his sermon and stepped down, people gathered at him and said: O son of the Commander of the Believers, and son of the daughter of Allah’s Messenger, inform us of the answer. So he said: The answer is upon the Commander of the Believers, peace be upon him. Then the Commander of the Believers said: Indeed, I was with the Prophet, Allah’s blessings be upon him and his Family, in a prayer he had prayer. Then he hit with his right to his left hand, then he pulled them and joined it to his chest, a severe joining, and then he said to me: O Ali. I said: I am at your service, O Allah’s Messenger, Allah’s blessings be upon him and his Family [1]. He said: Me and you are the two Fathers of this nation, so, may Allah curse the one who disobeys us. Say: Ameen. I said: Ameen. Then he said: Me and you are the two Masters of this nation, so, may Allah curse the one who flees from us. Say: Ameen. I said: Ameen. Then he said: Me and you are the two Shepherds of this nation, so, may Allah curse the one who strays away from us. Say: Ameen. I said: Ameen. The Commander of the Believers, peace be upon him, said: And I heard two sayers say with me: Ameen. So I said: O Allah’s Messenger, and who are the sayers with me of «Ameen»? He said: Jibra’eel and Mika’eel, peace be upon them both.
