حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ النُّفَيْلِيُّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أخبرنا مُطَرِّفُ بْنُ طَرِيفٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ أَبِي الْجَهْمِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ خَالِدِ بْنِ وَهْبَانَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ أَبِي ذَرٍّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ:‏‏‏‏ كَيْفَ أَنْتُمْ وَأَئِمَّةٌ مِنْ بَعْدِي يَسْتَأْثِرُونَ بِهَذَا الْفَيْءِ ؟،‏‏‏‏ قُلْتُ:‏‏‏‏ إِذَنْ وَالَّذِي بَعَثَكَ بِالْحَقِّ أَضَعُ سَيْفِي عَلَى عَاتِقِي، ‏‏‏‏‏‏ثُمَّ أَضْرِبُ بِهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَتَّى أَلْقَاكَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَوْ أَلْحَقَكَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ أَوَلَا أَدُلُّكَ عَلَى خَيْرٍ مِنْ ذَلِكَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏تَصْبِرُ حَتَّى تَلْقَانِي .

The Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم as saying: How will you deal with the rulers (imams) who appropriate to themselves this booty? I said: I swear by him who sent you with the truth that at that time I shall put my sword on my shoulder and smite with it till I meet you, or I join you. He said: shall I not guide you to something better than that? You must show endurance till you meet me.
