Arabic text

٣٨٠٨ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا ‌صَاعِدٌ الْحَرَّانِيُّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌زُهَيْرٌ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌مَنْصُورٌ ، عَنْ ‌أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، عَنِ ‌الْحَارِثِ ، عَنْ ‌عَلِيٍّ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «لَوْ كُنْتُ مُؤَمِّرًا أَحَدًا مِنْ غَيْرِ مَشُورَةٍ لَأَمَّرْتُ عَلَيْهِمُ ابْنَ أُمِّ عَبْدٍ». هَذَا حَدِيثٌ إِنَّمَا نَعْرِفُهُ مِنْ حَدِيثِ الْحَارِثِ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ.
