Sahih al-Bukhari
Oneness, Uniqueness of Allah (Tawheed) — Hadith #7465
أَلاَ تُصَلُّونَ ". قَالَ عَلِيٌّ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّمَا أَنْفُسُنَا بِيَدِ اللَّهِ، فَإِذَا شَاءَ أَنْ يَبْعَثَنَا بَعَثَنَا، فَانْصَرَفَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم حِينَ قُلْتُ ذَلِكَ، وَلَمْ يَرْجِعْ إِلَىَّ شَيْئًا، ثُمَّ سَمِعْتُهُ وَهْوَ مُدْبِرٌ يَضْرِبُ فَخِذَهُ وَيَقُولُ " {وَكَانَ الإِنْسَانُ أَكْثَرَ شَىْءٍ جَدَلاً}
The chain (isnad) appears to be missing from this record. Under review.
That one night Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) visited him and Fatima, the daughter of Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) and said to them, “Won ‘t you offer (night) prayer?.. `Ali added: I said, “O Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ)! Our souls are in the Hand of Allah and when He Wishes to bring us to life, He does.” Then Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) went away when I said so and he did not give any reply. Then I heard him on leaving while he was striking his thighs, saying, ‘But man is, more quarrelsome than anything.’ (18.54)
