Muhammad bin Hanafiyyah narrates: Sayyiduna Ali bin Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him) said to Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both): The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade temporary marriage (Nikah Mut'ah) and the eating of the meat of domesticated donkeys at the time of (the battle of) Khaybar. Sufyan says that by this narration it is meant that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade the eating of the meat of domesticated donkeys at the time of the battle of Khaybar. Sayyiduna Ali bin Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him) did not mean that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) also forbade temporary marriage at that time. (Rather, the prohibition of temporary marriage was given later.)

Abdullah bin Abu Juhayh narrates from his father: That person informed me who heard Sayyiduna Ali bin Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him) saying this, Sayyiduna Ali bin Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I intended to send a marriage proposal to the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) for his daughter, then I remembered that I had nothing. Then I thought of the greatness and virtue of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), so I sent a marriage proposal (for Sayyida Fatimah, may Allah be pleased with her). The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) asked me: Do you have anything which you can give her (as dowry)? I replied: No! The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: Where is your Hatimiyyah armor, which I gave you on such and such occasion? I replied: It is with me. The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: Bring that. Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) says: I brought it and gave the armor to the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), so the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) married me to Sayyida Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her). When she was sent to my house, the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: Do not talk to each other until I come to you both. Then the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) came to us, we had a sheet (the narrator is unsure, perhaps these are the words) or a blanket over us. When we saw the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), we started to enter into it, but he (peace be upon him) said: Both of you stay in your places! Then the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) asked for a vessel in which there was water, then he (peace be upon him) supplicated over it (i.e., recited something and blew on it), then he (peace be upon him) sprinkled it on us. I said: O Messenger of Allah! Is she (i.e., Sayyida Fatimah, may Allah be pleased with her) more beloved to you, or am I? The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: She is more beloved to me than you, and you are more honorable to me than her. The same narration is transmitted with another chain, however, in it are these words: The narrator heard Sayyiduna Ali bin Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him) saying this on the pulpit of Kufa.

Aish bin Anas narrates: I heard Sayyiduna Ali bin Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him) saying this from the pulpit of Kufa. My madhi (pre-seminal fluid) used to come out in abundance. I wanted to ask the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) about this, but since the daughter of the Prophet (peace be upon him) was my wife, I felt shy to ask him directly. So I instructed Ammar (may Allah be pleased with him) bin Yasir, and he asked the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) about it. The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: "It is sufficient to perform wudu (ablution) upon its emission."

Abu Hujayfah narrates: I asked Sayyiduna Ali ibn Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him): Do you have anything besides the Qur’an that you received from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)? He replied: No, by Him who split the grain and created the soul, (we have nothing like that) except for what Allah grants understanding of to any of His servants regarding His Book, or what is contained in this scroll. I asked: What is in this scroll? Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) said: (It contains rulings) about blood money, about freeing captives, and (the ruling) that no Muslim will be killed in retaliation for a disbeliever.

Abdur Rahman bin Abi Laila reports: I heard Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) narrate: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) instructed me to supervise his sacrificial animals (i.e., to have them slaughtered), to distribute the cloths placed on them and their skins, and not to give anything from them to the butcher. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "We will pay him (the butcher) from our own wealth (as compensation)."

Sayyiduna Ali bin Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) instructed me to look after his sacrificial animals and to distribute the cloths placed on them and their skins. Humaydi (may Allah have mercy on him) says: Sufyan narrated this, and Ibn Abi Wajeeh narrated only these words in my presence, whereas the narrator named Abdul Kareem narrated a more complete version compared to this.

Abdur Rahman bin Abi Laila narrates this statement of Sayyiduna Ali bin Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him): Sayyidah Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her) came to the service of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) to ask him for a servant. The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Shall I not tell you something that is better for you than that? When you go to bed, recite Subhan Allah 33 times, Alhamdulillah 33 times, and Allahu Akbar 34 times. (After narrating this tradition) Sufyan said: One of these phrases is to be recited 34 times. Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) says: Since I heard this from the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), I have never abandoned it. People asked him: Not even on the night of the Battle of Siffin? He replied: Not even on the night of the Battle of Siffin (did I abandon it).

Sayyiduna Ali bin Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: (Sayyidah) Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her) came to the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) to ask for a servant. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "I will not give you a servant. Should I leave the people of Suffah hungry? Shall I not tell you something that is better for you than this?" After this, the narrator has transmitted the previous narration from Ubaydullah to the end.

The same narration is transmitted with another chain, however, in it these words are present: Abdullah bin Utbah requested from Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him): Not even on the night of the Battle of Siffin? So Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) replied: I had recited them in the last part of the night.

Shurayh bin Hani narrates: I asked Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) about wiping over leather socks (khuffs), so she said: Go to Sayyiduna Ali bin Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him) and ask him this question, because he used to participate in battles with the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him). The narrator says: I asked Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) this question, so he said: The Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) used to say: "For a resident, its duration is one day and one night, and for a traveler, three days and three nights."
