Hadith 28

(The book) ‘Al-Khisaal’ – ‘Among what Amir Al-Momineen-asws answered the Jew who had asked him-asws about the signs of the successors-as is that he-asws said: ‘And as for the sixth, O Jewish brother! We arrived with Rasool-Allah-saww from Medina to your companions at Khyber, to the men from the Jews and their horsemen from Quraysh and other. There faced us the cavalry like the mountain, and the men and the weapons, and they were in the safety of a house, and more numerous in number. Every caller called and rushed to the fighting, but no one from my-asws companions duelled to them except they killed him. When the pupils were red and I-asws was called to the descending, and every person thought of himself, and my-asws companions turned to each other, and each one was saying, ‘O Abu Al-Hassan-asws, stand up’. So, Rasool-Allah-saww stood me-asws up to their houses, but not one of them duelled to me-asws except I-asws killed him, not did any horseman stand to me except I-asws crushed him. Then I-asws intensified upon them the severity of the lion upon its prey until I-asws entered into the interior of their city aiming to them, and I-asws uprooted the door of their fortress with my-asws hands until I-asws entered to them in their city alone. I-asws killed the ones from their men who appeared to me, and I-asws captured the ones from their women I-asws found until I-asws conquered it alone, and there did not happen to be any assistance for me-asws during it except Allah-azwj Alone’’.
