[Machine] "Do not come to Iraq, for if you do, you will be struck by the sword's flies." Ali said, "By Allah, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said this to me before you." Abu Al-Aswad said, "I said to myself, 'O Allah, I have never seen a warrior speaking to people like this today.'"
لَا تَأْتِ الْعِرَاقَ فَإِنَّكَ إِنْ أَتَيْتَهُ أَصَابَكَ بِهِ ذُبَابُ السَّيْفِ قَالَ عَلِيٌّ وَايْمُ اللَّهِ لَقَدْ قَالَهَا لِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَبْلَكَ قَالَ أَبُو الْأَسْوَدِ فَقُلْتُ فِي نَفْسِي «يَا اللَّهُ مَا رَأَيْتُ كَالْيَوْمِ رَجُلٌ مُحَارِبٌ يُحَدِّثُ النَّاسَ بِمِثْلِ هَذَا»
