Hadith.3426 - In the narration of Muhammad ibn Bahr al-Shaybani, from Ahmad ibn al-Harith, who said: Abu Ayyub al-Kufi narrated to us, who said: Ishaq ibn Wahb al-Allaf narrated to us, who said: Abu Asim al-Nabbal narrated to us, from Ibn Jurayj, from al-Dahhak, from Ibn Abbas, who said: The Messenger of Allah سبحانه وتعالى, peace be upon him and his family, came out from the house of Aisha, and a Bedouin approached him with a she-camel. The Bedouin said: "O Muhammad, will you buy this she-camel?" The Prophet, peace be upon him and his family, said: "Yes. For how much do you sell it, O Bedouin?" The Bedouin replied: "For two hundred dirhams." The Prophet, peace be upon him and his family, said: "Rather, your she-camel is worth more than this." The Prophet, peace be upon him and his family, continued to increase the price until he purchased the she-camel for four hundred dirhams. When the Prophet, peace be upon him and his family, handed the dirhams to the Bedouin, the Bedouin grabbed the reins of the she-camel and said: "The she-camel is mine, and the dirhams are mine. If Muhammad صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم has any claim, let him present evidence." Then a man approached, and the Prophet, peace be upon him and his family, said: "Do you agree to this elder who has come to judge between us?" The Bedouin said: "Yes, O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم." The Prophet, peace be upon him and his family, said: "Judge between me and this Bedouin." The man said: "Speak, O Messenger of Allah سبحانه وتعالى." The Prophet, peace be upon him and his family, said: "The she-camel is mine, and the dirhams belong to the Bedouin." The Bedouin said: "Rather, the she-camel is mine, and the dirhams are mine. If Muhammad صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم has any claim, let him present evidence." The man said: "The case is clear, O Messenger of Allah سبحانه وتعالى, since the Bedouin is asking for evidence." The Prophet, peace be upon him and his family, said to him, "Sit down." So he sat. Then another man approached, and the Prophet, peace be upon him and his family, said: "Do you agree, O Bedouin, to this elder who has come to judge between us?" The Bedouin said: "Yes, O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم." When the man came closer, the Prophet, peace be upon him and his family, said: "Judge between me and the Bedouin." The man said: "Speak, O Messenger of Allah سبحانه وتعالى." The Prophet, peace be upon him and his family, said: "The she-camel is mine, and the dirhams belong to the Bedouin." The Bedouin said: "Rather, the she-camel is mine, and the dirhams are mine. If Muhammad صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم has any claim, let him present evidence." The man said: "The case is clear, O Messenger of Allah سبحانه وتعالى, because the Bedouin is asking for evidence." The Prophet, peace be upon him and his family, said: "Sit until Allah سبحانه وتعالى brings someone who will judge between me and the Bedouin with truth." Then Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib عليه السلام approached. The Prophet, peace be upon him and his family, said: "Do you accept this young man who has come forward as a judge?" The Bedouin said: "Yes." When Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib عليه السلام drew near, the Prophet, peace be upon him and his family, said: "O Abu al-Hasan عليه السلام, judge between me and this Bedouin." Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib عليه السلام said: "Speak, O Messenger of Allah سبحانه وتعالى." The Prophet, peace be upon him and his family, said: "The she-camel is mine, and the dirhams belong to the Bedouin." The Bedouin said: "No, rather the she-camel is mine, and the dirhams are mine. If Muhammad صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم has any claim, let him bring evidence." Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib عليه السلام said: "Leave the she-camel with the Messenger of Allah سبحانه وتعالى, peace be upon him and his family." The Bedouin replied: "I will not do so unless He صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم presents evidence." Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib عليه السلام then entered his house, took hold of the hilt of his sword, and came back. Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib عليه السلام said: "Leave the she-camel with the Messenger of Allah سبحانه وتعالى, peace be upon him and his family." The Bedouin replied: "I will not do so unless he presents evidence." So Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib عليه السلام struck him with a blow. The people of Hijaz said that he struck off his head, while some people of Iraq said that he cut off one of his limbs. The Prophet, peace be upon him and his family, said: "What made you do this, O Ali عليه السلام?" Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib عليه السلام said: "O Messenger of Allah سبحانه وتعالى, we believe you concerning the revelation from the heavens, yet we do not believe you regarding four hundred dirhams?"
