- .... Another Hadith: Al-Tirmidhi said: Muhammad ibn Bashar and Ya'qub ibn Ibrahim and several others narrated to us. Abu Asim narrated to us from Abu al-Jarrah, from Jabir ibn Subh, who said: My mother, Umm Sharahil,
Umm Atiyya told me, saying: The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him and his holy progeny) sent out an army in which was Ali. She said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him and his holy progeny) raising his hands and saying,
"O Allah, do not let me die until You show me Ali." Then he said: This is a حسن (hasan) strange Hadith; we only know it from this narration.
