٤٠١٩٢ - حدثنا شبابة عن شعبة عن يحيى بن حصين قال: سمعت الحي غير واحد يحدثون عن أبي أنه قال لسعد بن أبي وقاص: ما يمنعك من القتال؟ قال: لا حتى يعطوني سيفا يعرف المؤمن من الكافر (١).
It is narrated from Hazrat Abi that he asked Hazrat Sa’d bin Abi Waqqas, “What prevents you from fighting?” He replied, “Nothing prevents me until you give me such a sword that can distinguish between a believer and a disbeliever.” (Hazrat Sa’d bin Abi Waqqas used to keep himself separate from tribulations and remained apart during all the events of Jamal, Siffin, Taym, and the martyrdom of Hazrat Uthman.)
