[Machine] That Ali ibn Abi Talib killed a man on the day of Mu'ta, and he found a ring on him with a red gemstone containing an image. He brought it to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , who took it and looked at it. He said, "If it did not have an image in it." Then he spat on it and returned it. This indicates that this narration has a basis. Jabir, from whom Abu Khaythama narrated, is a Hanafi, and the one who narrated from him, Ibn Aqil, is Jabir ibn Abdullah. Abu Hamza narrated from Jabir Al-Ju'fi from Muhammad ibn Abdullah ibn Muhammad ibn Aqil, who mentioned it.
أَنَّ عَقِيلَ بْنَ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ؓ قَتَلَ رَجُلًا يَوْمَ مُؤْتَةَ فَأَصَابَ عَلَيْهِ خَاتَمًا فِيهِ فَصٌّ أَحْمَرُ فِيهِ تِمْثَالٌ فَأَتَى بِهِ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَأَخَذَهُ وَنَظَرَ إِلَيْهِ فَقَالَ لَوْ لَمْ يَكُنْ فِيهِ تِمْثَالٌ قَالَ ثُمَّ نَفَّلَهُ إِيَّاهُ قَالَ فَهُوَ عِنْدَنَا هَذَا يَدُلُّ عَلَى أَنَّ الْحَدِيثَ لَهُ أَصْلٌ وَجَابِرٌ الَّذِي رَوَى عَنْهُ أَبُو خَيْثَمَةَ هُوَ الْحَنَفِيُّ وَالَّذِي رَوَى عَنْهُ ابْنُ عَقِيلٍ هُوَ جَابِرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ ؓ وَرَوَاهُ أَبُو حَمْزَةَ عَنْ جَابِرٍ الْجُعْفِيِّ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَقِيلٍ فَذَكَرَهُ
