Chapter 64: Military Expeditions led by the Prophet (pbuh) (Al-Maghaazi)
Narrated 'Urwa: Az-Zubair said, "I met Ubaida bin Sa 'id bin Al-As on the day (of the battle) of Badr and he was
covered with armor; so much that only his eyes were visible. He was surnamed Abu Dhat-al-Karish.
He said (proudly), 'I am Abu-al-Karish.' I attacked him with the spear and pierced his eye and he died.
I put my foot over his body to pull (that spear) out, but even then I had to use a great force to take it
out as its both ends were bent." 'Urwa said, "Later on Allah' s Messenger (ﷺ) asked Az-Zubair for the spear
and he gave it to him. When Allah' s Messenger (ﷺ) died, Az-Zubair took it back. After that Abu Bakr
demanded it and he gave it to him, and when Abu Bakr died, Az-Zubair took it back. 'Umar then
demanded it from him and he gave it to him. When 'Umar died, Az-Zubair took it back, and then
'Uthman demanded it from him and he gave it to him. When 'Uthman was martyred, the spear
remained with 'Ali' s offspring. Then 'Abdullah bin Az-Zubair demanded it back, and it remained with
him till he was martyred.
