أَخْبَرَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ آدَمَ، أَنَا أَبُو إِسْرَائِيلَ، عَنِ الْحَكَمِ قَالَ:
لَمَّا كَانَ يَوْمُ الْجَمَلِ وَاصْطَفُّوا، دَعَا عَلِيٌّ ؓ الزُّبَيْرَ ؓ فَأَتَاهُ فَقَالَ: أَنْشُدُكَ اللهَ تَعَالَى أَمَا تَذْكُرُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ، قَالَ: لَتُقَاتِلَنَّهُ وَأَنْتَ ظَالِمٌ لَهُ ؟ قَالَ ؓ: اللَّهُمَّ نَعَمْ، فَمَا ذَكَرْتُهُ قَبْلَ مَقَامِي هَذَا، فَانْطَلَقَ رَاجِعًا، فَلَمَّا رَآهُ صَاحِبُهُ تَبِعَهُ، يَعْنِي: طَلْحَةَ ؓ فَرَمَاهُ مَرْوَانُ بِسَهْمٍ، فَشَدَّ فَخِذَهُ بِحَدِيدِ السَّرْجِ

✧ When the Day of the Camel came and they lined up, 'Ali ؓ called al-Zubayr ؓ, and he came to him. He said: I adjure you by Allah the Exalted, do you not remember that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'You will indeed fight him while you are an oppressor to him'? He ؓ said: O Allah, yes; I did not remember it before this standing of mine. So he turned back. When his companion saw him, he followed him—meaning Talhah ؓ—and Marwan shot him with an arrow, and it pierced his thigh to the iron of the saddle.
