حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الْحَافِظُ أَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الْمِصْرِيُّ ثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ صَالِحٍ ثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ دِينَارٍ عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ
دَخَلَ عَلِيٌّ بِسَيْفِهِ عَلَى فَاطِمَةَ وَهِيَ تَغْسِلُ الدَّمَ عَنْ وَجْهِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ خُذِيهِ فَلَقَدْ أَحْسَنْتُ بِهِ الْقِتَالَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «إِنْ كُنْتَ قَدْ أَحْسَنْتَ الْقِتَالَ الْيَوْمَ فَلَقَدْ أَحْسَنَ سَهْلُ بْنُ حُنَيْفٍ وَعَاصِمُ بْنُ ثَابِتٍ وَالْحَارِثُ بْنُ الصِّمَّةِ وَأَبُو دُجَانَةَ»
