بَلَغَ أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ( عليه السلام ) أَنَّ طَلْحَةَ وَ الزُّبَيْرَ يَقُولَانِ لَيْسَ لِعَلِيٍّ مَالٌ قَالَ فَشَقَّ ذَلِكَ عَلَيْهِ فَأَمَرَ وُكَلَاءَهُ أَنْ يَجْمَعُوا غَلَّتَهُ حَتَّى إِذَا حَالَ الْحَوْلُ أَتَوْهُ وَ قَدْ جَمَعُوا مِنْ ثَمَنِ الْغَلَّةِ مِائَةَ أَلْفِ دِرْهَمٍ فَنُشِرَتْ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ فَأَرْسَلَ إِلَى طَلْحَةَ وَ الزُّبَيْرِ فَأَتَيَاهُ فَقَالَ لَهُمَا هَذَا الْمَالُ وَ اللَّهِ لِي لَيْسَ لِأَحَدٍ فِيهِ شَيْءٌ وَ كَانَ عِنْدَهُمَا مُصَدَّقاً قَالَ فَخَرَجَا مِنْ عِنْدِهِ وَ هُمَا يَقُولَانِ إِنَّ لَهُ لَمَالًا .
Translation
A number of our companions, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Ibn Mahboub, from Ibn Fazzal, altogether from Yunus Bin Yaqoub, from Abu Baseer who said, ‘It (news) reached Amir Al-Momineen<sup>asws</sup> that Talha and Al-Zubeyr were both saying, ‘There is not for Ali<sup>asws</sup>, any wealth’. He (the narrator) said, ‘So that was grievous upon him<sup>asws</sup>, so he<sup>asws</sup> ordered his<sup>asws</sup> representatives that they should gather his<sup>asws</sup> harvest until when a year passes by, to bring it to him<sup>asws</sup>, and there had gathered from the price of the harvest, one hundred thousand Dirhams. So he<sup>asws</sup> had it displayed in front of him<sup>asws</sup> and sent a messenger to Talha and Al-Zubayr. So he brought both of them to him<sup>asws</sup>. So he<sup>asws</sup> said to them both: ‘This wealth, by Allah<sup>azwj</sup>, is for me<sup>asws</sup>, there not being a share for anyone else in it’, and they had both verified it’. So they both left from his<sup>asws</sup> presence, and they were both saying, ‘He<sup>asws</sup> does have wealth for him<sup>asws</sup>’.
