أَبِي ، عَنْ
مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنِي
عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ حَسَنٍ ، عَنْ
بَعْضِ أَهْلِهِ ، عَنْ
أَبِي رَافِعٍ مَوْلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : " خَرَجْنَا مَعَ عَلِيٍّ حِينَ بَعَثَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ بِرَايَتِهِ ، فَلَمَّا دَنَا مِنَ الْحِصْنِ خَرَجَ إِلَيْهِ أَهْلُهُ فَقَاتَلَهُمْ ،
فَضَرَبَهُ رَجُلٌ مِنْ يَهُودَ ، فَطَرَحَ تُرْسَهُ مِنْ يَدِهِ ، فَتَنَاوَلَ عَلِيٌّ بَابًا كَانَ عِنْدَ الْحِصْنِ ، فَتَرَّسَ بِهِ نَفْسَهُ ، فَلَمْ يَزَلْ فِي يَدِهِ وَهُوَ يُقَاتِلُ حَتَّى فَتَحَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ ، ثُمَّ أَلْقَاهُ مِنْ يَدِهِ حِينَ فَرَغَ ، فَلَقَدْ رَأَيْتُنِي فِي نَفَرٍ مَعِي سَبْعَةٌ أَنَا ثَامِنُهُمْ نَجْهَدُ عَلَى أَنْ نَقْلِبَ ذَلِكَ الْبَابَ ، فَمَا نَقْلِبُهُ " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Rafi’ (may Allah be pleased with him) that when the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) sent Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) by giving him his flag (on the occasion of the Battle of Khaybar), we also went out with him. When he reached near the fort, the people of the fort came out and the fighting began. A Jew attacked Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with him), and Hazrat Ali’s shield fell from his hand. He uprooted the door of the fort and used it as a shield, and during the battle it remained continuously in his hand until Allah granted him victory. After the battle was over, Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) threw it away from his hand. I saw that a group of seven men—among whom I was the eighth—put all their strength into moving that door, but we could not move it.
