Shia is very strange sect, they try to corrupt everything what they can. Even book which is not authentic in the view of their ulama, didn’t succeed to escape from the hands of shia editors.

In book which is attributed to Sulaim ibn Qays al-Hilali, at page 423 (thq Muhammad Baqir al-Ansari), you can read:

قال عليه السلام: ثم قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله: ابشر يا أخي – قال ذلك وأصحابه يسمعون – قلت: بشرك الله بخير يا رسول الله وجعلني فداؤك. قال: إني لم أسأل الله شيئا إلا أعطانيه، ولم أسأل لنفسي شيئا إلا سألت لك مثله، وإني دعوت الله أن يواخي بيني وبينك ففعل، وسألته (أن يجعلك ولي كل مؤمن من بعدي) ففعل. فقال رجلان – أحدهما لصاحبه -:

And, alaihi salam said: Then messenger of Allah (sallalahu alaihi wa alihi) said: Rejoice , O brother!  – said that and his companions heard him. I (Ali) said: May Allah rejoice you, O messenger of Allah, and may I become your ransom. He said: “I didn’t ask Allah things except He gave them to me. And didn’t ask for myself things except asked them for you too. And I prayed to Allah so He make brotherhood between you and me, and He did. And asked: To make you Wali of all believers after me, and he did”. And two men said – one to his companion…

And now let us see what is omitted in this text.

At-Tabrasi in his “Ihtijaj” (p 232-233) also quoted this from the very same Sulaim. But there is addition which is omitted in present copy of Sulaim’s book at yasoob, shiaonlinelibrary , alhawzaonline and others.

Here screen shot from Ihtijaj:

And here printed version of Ihtijaj:

Translation:

“Rejoice , O Ali!”  I (Ali) said: May Allah rejoice you with goodness, O messenger of Allah, and may I become your ransom. He said: “I didn’t ask Allah things except He gave them to me. And didn’t ask for myself things except asked them for you too. And I prayed to Allah Azwajal so He make brotherhood between you and me, and He did. And asked: To make you Wali of all believer men and women after me, and he did. And I asked to gather around you my nation after me, and He refused that upon me”. And two men said – one to his companion…

For me it is clear why they omitted red marked part. Because it is clear evidence that those who didn’t gather upon Ali  – and as shias believe we  – sunnah didn’t gather upon him – are from nation of Muhammad (alaihi salati wa sallam).

Amazing that shia writer Ali Abu Maash managed to quote this report from “Ihtijaj” of Tabarsi, in his book “Arbain fi hub amiralmuminin” volume 5, and he also omitted discussed part of report:

This report was also quoted by M.Majlisi in “Biharul anwar” (40/2-3):

As you can see Majlisi also omitted this words, and muhaqiq in the footnote pay attention to this, by saying:

 في المصدر بعد ذلك : وسألته أن يجمع عليك امتى بعدى فأبى على .

And in the (original) source after this: And I asked (Him) to gather upon you my nation after me, and He refused.
