This is ‘Ali who has approached in al sahab
This is ‘Ali who has approached in al sahab
هذا علي قد أقبل في السحاب
This is ‘Ali who has approached in al sahab (lit. the clouds).
Al Albani states:
Mawdu’. Abu al Sheikh documented it in Akhlaq al Nabi[1] from Mas’adah ibn al Yasa’ from―Jafar ibn Muhammad from―his father from―his grandfather who reports: “Rasulullah salla Llahu ‘alayhi wa sallam put on a turban for ‘Ali called al sahab. ‘Ali thereafter approached wearing it, so Rasulullah salla Llahu ‘alayhi wa sallam said: This is ‘Ali who has approached in al sahab.”
They manipulated it and asserted, “Ali is in the clouds.”
I say: Mas’adah is the problem.
Mas’adah ibn al Yasa
- Al Bukhari quotes Ahmed, “He is worthless. We discarded his hadith a long time back.”[2]
- Al Dhahabi comments, “Halik (destroyed). Abu Dawood declared him a liar."
