It was narrated that Aswad said:“They said in ‘Aishah’s presence that ‘Ali was appointed (by the Prophet (ﷺ) before he died), and she said: ‘When was he appointed? He (the Prophet (ﷺ)) was resting against my bosom, or in my lap, and he called for a basin, then he became limp in my lap and died, and I did not realize it. So when did he (ﷺ) appoint him?’”

حدثنا ابو بكر بن ابي شيبة، حدثنا اسماعيل ابن علية، عن ابن عون، عن ابراهيم، عن الاسود، قال: ذكروا عند عايشة ان عليا كان وصيا . فقالت: متى اوصى اليه؟ فلقد كنت مسندته الى صدري - او الى حجري فدعا بطست فلقد انخنث في حجري فمات وما شعرت به. فمتى اوصى صلى الله عليه وسلم ؟
