Ahmad bin Hanbal says:
Abdullah bin Ahmad relates from Ali bin Hakim Awdi from Sharik from Abi Ishaq from Sa‘id bin Wahab and Zayd bin Yuyhay both of whom have narrated:
Ali complained and addressed the people at Rahbah, saying:
“All those who had heard the Prophet’s words at Ghadir Khum, stand up.”
The narrator says:
Six persons on behalf of Sa‘id and six persons on behalf of Zayd stood up and bore testimony that they heared
the Prophet said on the Day of Ghadir:
Is not God superior to the faithful?
Yes! said the gathering.
He said:
O Allah! For whomsoever I am master ‘Ali is his master. O Allah! Be friend his friends and despise his enemies”.1
