لَمَّا جَلَسَ عَلِيٌّ ع فِي الْخِلَافَةِ وَ بَايَعَهُ النَّاسُ خَرَجَ إِلَى الْمَسْجِدِ مُتَعَمِّماً بِعِمَامَةِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص لَابِساً بُرْدَةَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ مُتَنَعِّلًا نَعْلَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ مُتَقَلِّداً سَيْفَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ فَصَعِدَ الْمِنْبَرَ فَجَلَسَ عَلَيْهِ مُتَمَكِّناً ثُمَّ شَبَّكَ بَيْنَ أَصَابِعِهِ فَوَضَعَهَا أَسْفَلَ بَطْنِهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ يَا مَعَاشِرَ النَّاسِ سَلُونِي قَبْلَ أَنْ تَفْقِدُونِي‏هَذَا سَفَطُ الْعِلْمِ هَذَا لُعَابُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص هَذَا مَا زَقَّنِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص زَقّاً زَقّاً  

When (Imam) Ali-asws sat in the Caliphate and the people pledged their allegiance, he-asws went out to the Masjid turbaned with the turban of Rasool-Allah-saww, wearing ‘بُرْدَةَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ’ the cloak of Rasool-Allah-saww, (wearing) the slippers of Rasool-Allah-saww, collared by the sword of Rasool-Allah-saww. He-asws ascended the Pulpit and sat upon it stable, then intertwined his-asws fingers and placed them just below his-asws stomach, then said: ‘O community of people! Ask me-asws before you lose me-asws! This is aspiration of the knowledge. This is (from the feeding of) the saliva of Rasool-Allah-azwj, this is what Rasool-Allah-saww made me-asws taste with tasting (and) tasting (an extract).[2]
