Narrated Al-Ahnaf bin Qais:I went to help that man (i.e., `Ali), and on the way I met Abu Bakra who asked me, "Where are you going?" I replied, "I am going to help that man."

Al-Ahnaf bin Qais bataate hain: Main us aadmi (yaani Ali) ki madad karne gaya, aur raaste mein maine Abu Bakra se mulaakaat ki jinhone mujhse pucha, 'Tum kahaan jaa rahe ho?'

Maine kaha, "Aye Allah ke Rasool! Ye qaatil ke liye theek hai, magar maare gaye shaks ke baare mein kya?" Unhone kaha, "Maara gaya shaks bhi apne mukhaalif ko qatl karne ke liye betaab tha."'
