1. [1/-] Ilal al-Sharai: Ahmad b. Ziyad b. Ja`far al-Hamdani from Ali b. Ibrahim b. Hashim from his father from Ahmad b. Muhammad b. Abi Nasr al-Bazanti and Muhammad b. Abi Umayr from Aban b. Uthman from Abi Abdillah (a.s.) who said: "All the companions of the Messenger of Allah ran away on the day of Uhud – no one was left among them except Ali b. Abi Talib (a.s.) and Abu Dujana Simak b. Kharasha. The Prophet (s.w) said to him: 'O Aba Dujana – don’t you see your people?' he said: 'I do.' The Prophet (s.w) replied: 'Join up with them.' Abu Dujana said: 'This is not what I gave my pledge of allegiance to Allah and His messenger for! The Prophet (s.w) said: 'You are released [from your pledge].' Abu Dujana said: 'By Allah the Quraysh will never get the opportunity to say that I abandoned you and ran away until I taste what you taste!' Then the Prophet (s.w) prayed for a good recompense for him. Whenever a group used to attack Rasulallah – Ali (a.s) would face them and repel them until he had killed a large number of them and injured others. He continued this way until his sword broke so he came to the Prophet (s.w) and said: 'O messenger of Allah – a man can only fight with his weapon but my sword has broken!' So he (the prophet) gave him his sword Dhu al-Fiqar and he (Ali) kept on defending the prophet using it until marks [wound traces] were inflicted on him and he became unrecognizable [because of a multitude of injuries]. Jibril descended and said: 'O Muhammad this is an incomparable support from Ali to you!' So the Prophet (s.w) said: 'He is from me and I am from him!' Jibril replied 'And I am from you both!' they heard a voice from heaven saying: 'There is no sword but Dhu al-Fiqar and the there is no young champion except Ali!'"
