Az-Zubair said, "I met Ubaida bin Saʿid 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." ʿUrwa said, "Later on Messenger of Allah ﷺ asked Az-Zubair for the spear and he gave it to him. When Messenger of Allah 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. ʿUmar then demanded it from him and he gave it to him. When ʿUmar died, Az-Zubair took it back, and then ʿUthman demanded it from him and he gave it to him. When ʿUthman was martyred, the spear remained with ʿAli's offspring. Then ʿAbdullah bin Az-Zubair demanded it back, and it remained with him till he was martyred.
