Arabic
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْد اللَّهِ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ الْوَرَكَانِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا شَرِيكٌ، عَنْ مُخَارِقٍ، عَنْ طَارِقٍ، قَالَ خَطَبَنَا عَلِيٌّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ فَقَالَ مَا عِنْدَنَا شَيْءٌ مِنْ الْوَحْيِ أَوْ قَالَ كِتَابٌ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِلَّا مَا فِي كِتَابِ اللَّهِ وَهَذِهِ الصَّحِيفَةِ الْمَقْرُونَةِ بِسَيْفِي وَعَلَيْهِ سَيْفٌ حِلْيَتُهُ حَدِيدٌ وَفِيهَا فَرَائِضُ الصَّدَقَاتِ.
