Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 40686 — reports on Siffin
٤٠٦٨٦ - حدثنا وكيع قال: حدثنا الأعمش عن شمر عن عبد اللَّه بن سنان الأسدي قال: رأيت عليا يوم صفين ومعه سيف رسول اللَّه ﷺ ذو الفقار قال: فنضبطه (فيفلت) (١) فيحمل عليهم، (قال) (٢): ثم يجيء، قال: ثم يحمل عليهم (٣)، قال: فجاء بسيفه قد (تثنى) (٤) فقال: إن هذا يعتذر إليكم (٥).
Abdullah bin Sinan al-Asadi said: I saw Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) in the Battle of Siffin with the sword of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) called Dhu al-Fiqar in his hand. We would stay around him but he would leave us behind; he would attack, then come back, then attack again. Then he brought his sword, and it had bent. He said: "This offers an excuse to you."
