5ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ زَيْدٍ الشَّحَّامِ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) أَنَّ أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ (صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وآلِه) جَلَسَ إِلَى حَائِطٍ مَائِلٍ يَقْضِي بَيْنَ النَّاسِ فَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ لا تَقْعُدْ تَحْتَ هَذَا الْحَائِطِ فَإِنَّهُ مُعْوِرٌ فَقَالَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ (صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وآلِه) حَرَسَ امْرَأً أَجَلُهُ فَلَمَّا قَامَ سَقَطَ الْحَائِطُ قَالَ وَكَانَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) مِمَّا يَفْعَلُ هَذَا وَأَشْبَاهَهُ وَهَذَا الْيَقِينُ.

5. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from Zayd al- Shahham from Abu ‘Abdillah (a.s.) who has said the following: “Once, Amir al-Mu’minin (Ali ibn abu Talib) (a.s.) during his court session, had sat leaning against a wall that was bent. Certain people asked him not to sit near the defective wall. Amir al-Mu’minin (Ali ibn abu Talib) (a.s.) said, ‘This is like a man’s guarding his death,' (Futility of Guardian against death). When the Imam moved away, the wall crumbled. The Imam said, ‘Amir al-Mu’minin (Ali ibn abu Talib) (a.s.) would often do such and similar things and that was because of certainty.’”
