[Machine] Indeed, it has been mentioned to me about an incident that occurred from the east, in which Thudayyah was present. Fight against them, the Haruriyyah said to each other, "Do not speak to him, for he will refute you as he did on the day of Harura." So some of them threw spears at each other. A man from the companions of Ali said, "Cut off the spears, then turn and kill them." And it was mentioned that on that day, twelve or thirteen men from the companions of Ali were killed. Ali said, "Look for the trickery, and it will occur on the day of Shat." They replied saying, "We are unable to do it." Ali then rode the Prophet's white camel and came back with a sheep from the land. He said, "Look for it among these and bring it out." They replied, "We do not deny nor lie." Ali said, "Proceed and do not rely, except if I fear that you will rely, I would not have informed you of what Allah has decreed for you, through the words of the Prophet, ﷺ . And indeed, we witnessed some people in Yemen." They asked, "How, O Amir al-Muminin?" He said, "Their inclinations were with us."
