Arabic text

3 - قال: أخبرني أبو الحسن علي بن بلال المهلبي قال: حدثنا علي بن عبد الله بن أسد الإصفهاني قال: حدثنا إبراهيم بن محمد الثقفي قال: حدثنا القناد قال: حدثنا علي بن هاشم ، عن أبيه، عن سعيد بن المسيب قال: سمعت يحيى بن أم الطويل يقول: سمعت أمير المؤمنين علي بن أبي طالب عليه السلام يقول: ما بين لوحي المصحف من آية إلا وقد علمت فيمن نزلت، وأين نزلت، في سهل أو جبل، وإن بين جوانحي لعلما جما، فسلوني قبل أن تفقدوني، فإنكم إن فقدتموني لم تجدوا من يحدثكم مثل حديثي.

Translation

3. He said: Abul Hasan ‘Ali ibn Bilal al-Mahlabi reported to me from ‘Ali ibn Abdillah ibn Asad al-Ishfahani, who reported from Ibrahim ibn Muhammad al-Thaqafi, who reported from al-Qannad, who reported from ‘Ali ibn Hashim, from his father, from Saeed ibn al-Musayyib who said: I heard Amirul Mu’mineen ‘Ali ibn Abi Talib, peace be upon him, say: "There is no verse between the two covers of the Qur’an, except that I know for whom it was revealed and when it was revealed, and whether on a plain, levelled land or upon a mountain. Surely, here in my breast is abundant knowledge! So, put your questions to me before you do not find me among yourselves, for when you have lost me, you will not find anyone uttering the words I utter."
