Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 35305 — Those who gave the belongings

Al-Aswad bin Qays al-Abdi (may Allah have mercy on him) reports that Shibr bin Alqamah (may Allah have mercy on him) said: On the day of the Battle of al-Qadisiyyah a man from the people of Persia stood up, called out a challenge to single combat and spoke of his own greatness. A small man called Shibr bin Alqamah stood up to him. The Persian did this to him, that is, he lifted him up, then slammed him to the ground and threw him down. Then Shibr seized a dagger that the Persian had, plunged it into his belly and did this, that is, he worked it about. Then he came on top of him and killed him. Then he came with the property he had stripped from him to Sayyiduna Sa'd (may Allah be pleased with him), who valued it at twelve thousand and gave it to him as an extra award.
