Volume 5, Book 59, Number 333:
Narrated ‘Urwa:
Az-Zubair said, “I met Ubaida bin Said 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 Apostle asked Az-Zubair for the
spear and he gave it to him. When Allah’s Apostle 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 de –
manded it from him and he gave it to him. When ‘Umar died, Az-Zubair took it back, and then ‘Uth –
man 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.
