Sayyiduna Sa'd said: "As for me, I will sit in my house and will not leave it." Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud said: "I am with what you have said." Sayyiduna Ibn Umar said: "I too am with the like of that." And Sayyiduna Ammar said: "But I will be in the middle of it, and I will strike its great nose."
