Majma al-Zawaid — Hadith 11751

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) relates: On the occasion of the Battle of Badr, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) took his sword "Dhu al-Fiqar" as a nafl (an extra share of the spoils). It is the very sword about which he saw a dream on the occasion of the Battle of Uhud, and he said: "I saw as though the edge of my sword Dhu al-Fiqar had become notched, and I interpreted it to mean that people among you will be killed. I saw in a dream that I had a ram seated behind me, and I interpreted it to mean the ram (leader) of the enemy. I saw in a dream as though I were in a well-fortified coat of armour, and I interpreted it to mean Madinah. And I saw cattle being slaughtered; so by Allah, the interpretation of the cattle will surely be good, by Allah, the interpretation of the cattle will surely be good." The narrator says: And it happened just as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had said.
Al-Bazzar recorded it, and al-Tabarani recorded it without this wording. A chain of this narration has already passed in the chapter on the Battle of Uhud. The chain of this narration contains Abd al-Rahman bin Abi al-Zinad, who is da'if (weak).
