Musnad of Ali bin Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him)
Musnad Abi Ya'la 543 — Sayyiduna al-Mughirah bin Shu'bah had a spear
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُوسَى ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أَحْمَدَ ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ ، عَنْ أَبِي الْخَلِيلِ ، عَنْ عَلِيٍّ قَالَ : كَانَ لِلْمُغِيرَةِ بْنِ شُعْبَةَ رُمْحٌ ، فَكُنَّا إِذَا خَرَجْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي غَزَاةٍ فَرَكَزَهُ فَيَمُرُّ بِهِ النَّاسُ فَيَحْمِلُونَهُ ، فَقُلْتُ لَهُ : لَئِنْ أَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَأُخْبِرَنَّهُ ، فَقَالَ : إِنَّكَ إِنْ فَعَلْتَ لَمْ تُرْفَعْ ضَالَّةً .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) that Sayyiduna al-Mughirah bin Shu'bah (may Allah be pleased with him) had a spear. Whenever we went out with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) on a military expedition, he would plant that spear (in the ground), and people passing by would pick it up (thinking it a lost item). I said to him: "If I come to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), I will certainly tell him about this." Upon this he said: "If you do that, then no lost item will be picked up (out of that fear)."
