حدثنا أبي - رضي الله عنه - قال: حدثنا عبد الله بن الحسن المؤدب، عن أحمد بن علي الأصبهاني، عن إبراهيم بن محمد، قال: أخبرنا الحكم بن سليمان، قال: حدثنا يحيى بن يعلي الأسلمي، عن الحسين بن زيد الجزري ، عن شداد البصري عن عطاء بن أبي رباح، عن أنس بن مالك، قال: قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله: لما عرج بي إلى السماء إذا أنا بأسطوانة أصلها من فضة بيضاء ووسطها من ياقوت [ة] وزبرجد، وأعلاها من ذهبة حمراء؟ فقلت: يا جبرئيل ما هذه؟ فقال: هذا دينك أبيض واضح مضئ. قلت: وما هذه وسطها؟ قال: الجهاد. قلت: فما هذه الذهبة الحمراء؟ قال: الهجرة، ولذلك علا إيمان علي عليه السلام على إيمان كل مؤمن .
1. We were told by my father, may Allah be pleased with him, that he said: We were told by Abdullah bin Hasan, the Teacher, from Ahmad bin Ali al-Esbahani, from Ibrahim bin Muhammed, that he said: We were informed by Hakam bin Sulayman, that he said: We were told by Yahya bin Ya’la al-Aslami, from Hussain bin Zaid al-Jazri, from Shaddad al-Basri, from ‘Ataa’ bin Abi Rabah, from Anas bin Malik, that he said: The Messenger of Allah, Allah’s blessings be upon him and his Family, said: When I was ascended to Heaven, I was suddenly by a column whose origin is of white silver, its center is of ruby and peridot and its top is of red gold. So I said: O Jibra’eel, what is this? He said: This is your Religion, white, clear, brightening. I said: And what is this at its center? He said: Striving. I said: And what is this red gold? He said: Migration. Therefore, the faith of Ali, peace be upon him, was elevated above the faith of every believer.
