## Hadith #2602

**Book:** Jihad (Kitab Al-Jihad) | **Narrator(s):** al-Zubair bin al-Walid al-Shamy الزبير بن الوليد الشامي, Amr bin 'Uthman عمرو بن عثمان بن عفان, Baqiyya bin al-Walid bin Sa'aid بقية بن الوليد بن صائد, ibn Umar, Safwan bin 'Amr bin Harm al-Saksaki صفوان بن عمرو بن هرم السكسكي, Sharyh bin 'Ubaid شريح بن عبيد بن شريح | **Grade:** Sahih

Ali ibn Rabi’ah said: I was present with Ali while a beast was brought to him to ride. When he put his foot in the stirrup, he said: “In the name of Allah.” Then when he sat on its back, he said: “Praise be to Allah.” He then said: “Glory be to Him Who has made this subservient to us, for we had not the strength, and to our Lord do we return.” He then said: “Praise be to Allah (thrice); Allah is Most Great (thrice): glory be to Thee, I have wronged myself, so forgive me, for only Thou forgivest sins.” He then laughed. He was asked: At what did you laugh? He replied: I saw the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) do as I have done, and laugh after that. I asked: Messenger of Allah , at what are you laughing? He replied: Your Lord, Most High, is pleased with His servant when he says: “Forgive me my sins.” He know that no one forgives sins except Him.
