[Machine] On the day of the Battle of Khaybar, while we were with the Prophet ﷺ , he took the flag and said, "I will give this flag to a man who loves Allah and His Messenger." The people competed to see who will be given the flag, so the Prophet ﷺ called Ali ibn Abi Talib. Ali approached with his eyes lowered. The Prophet ﷺ spat in his eyes and then handed him the flag. Allah granted Ali victory.  

لَمَّا كَانَ يَوْمُ خَيْبَرَ وَنَحْنُ مَعَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَخَذَ الرَّايَةَ فَقَالَ «أُعْطِي هَذِهِ الرَّايَةَ رَجُلًا يُحِبُّ اللهَ وَرَسُولَهُ» فَتَطَاوَلَ النَّاسُ يَنْظُرُونَ مَنْ يُعْطِيهَا فَدَعَا عَلِيَّ بْنَ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ؓ وَعَلِيٌّ أَرْمَدُ فَبَصَقَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فِي عَيْنَيْهِ ثُمَّ أَعْطَاهَا إِيَّاهُ فَفَتَحَ اللهُ عَلَيْهِ
