624 - Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn 'Abd Allah ibn Sadaqah informed me, saying: al-'Abbas narrated to us, saying: My father narrated to me, saying: al-Awza'i narrated to us, saying: al-Zuhri narrated to me, saying: Abu Salamah and al-Dahhak ibn Muzahim—so he said, though it is actually al-Dahhak al-Mashriqi—narrated to me, from Abu Sa'id al-Khudri. The hadith is long and contains the story of Dhu al-Thudayyah and the statement of the Prophet (peace be upon him) regarding him. Abu Sa'id said: 'I bear witness that I heard this from the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him), and I bear witness that I was with 'Ali when he killed them; he was sought among the slain and was brought forth matching the description that the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) had given.'
