[Machine] He heard Hattib ibn Abu Balta'ah saying that he went out with the Prophet ﷺ during the Battle of Uhud and the battle was intense. Ali ibn Abi Talib had a shield with water in his hand, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ washed his face with that water. Hattib asked him who did this to you? The Prophet replied it was 'Utbah ibn Abi Waqqas, who hit my face and broke my cheekbone with a stone. I heard someone shouting that Muhammad had been killed on the mountain, so I came and my spirit had already left me. I asked where Utbah had gone, so he pointed to where he went. I pursued him until I caught up with him and struck him with my sword, and his head fell. I took his head, his armor, and his horse, and I came to the Prophet ﷺ . He accepted what I brought and prayed for me, saying "May Allah be pleased with you."
