It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) that: On the day of Hudaybiyah I saw the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) holding the arm of Sayyiduna Ali bin Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him) and saying: "This is the leader of the righteous and the slayer of the wicked. Whoever helps him will be helped, and whoever forsakes him (does not help him) will be forsaken." Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) raised his voice while saying this. The chain of narration of this hadith is sahih (authentic), but the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim) did not record it.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that Sayyidah Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her) said: "O Messenger of Allah! You have married me to Ali bin Abi Talib, whereas he is poor and has no wealth." He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O Fatimah! Are you not pleased that Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, (manifested Himself and) cast a special look upon the people of the earth and chose two men from among them: one is your father and the other is your husband?" This hadith is sahih (authentic) on the condition of the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim), but they did not record it.

Something similar has also been narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both). This hadith is sahih (authentic) on the condition of the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim), but they did not record it.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) regarding this statement of Allah Almighty, "You are only a warner, and for every people there is a guide" [Surah al-Ra'd: 7] , that he said: "The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) is the warner (mundhir), and I am the one who shows the path of guidance (hadi)." This hadith has a sahih (authentic) chain of narration, but the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim) did not record it.
