And narrated to us Yahya ibn Yahya — and the wording is his — informed us Abu Mu‘awiyah, from al-A‘mash, from ‘Adi ibn Thabit, from Zirr, who said: ‘Ali said: "By Him who split the seed and created the soul, it is indeed the covenant of the unlettered Prophet, peace be upon him, to me: that none loves me except a believer, and none hates me except a hypocrite."
