"عَنْ عَبْدِ خَيْرٍ قَالَ: كَانَ لِعَلْىِّ بْن أَبِى طَالبٍ أرْبَعَةُ خَوَاتِيمَ يَتَخَتَّمُ بِها يَاقُوتٌ لِنَيْلِهِ، فَيْرُوزجُ لِنَصْرِهِ، حَدِيدٌ صِينِىٌّ لِقُوَّتِهِ، عَقِيقٌ لِحرْزهِ، وَكَانَ نَقْشُ الْيَاقُوتِ: لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ الْمَلِكُ الْمُبِينُ، وَنَقْشُ الْفَيْرُوزَجِ: الله الْمَلِكُ، وَنَقْشُ الْحَدِيدِ الصِّينِىِّ: الْعِزَّةُ لِلَّهِ جَمِيعًا، وَنَقْشُ الْعَقِيقِ ثَلَاثَةُ أَسْطُرٍ: مَا شَاءَ الله، لاَ قُوَّةَ إِلَّا بِالله أَسْتَغْفِرُ الله".

"On the authority of 'Abd Khayr, who said: 'Ali ibn Abi Talib had four rings which he wore: a ruby for attainment, a turquoise for his victory, Chinese iron for his strength, and carnelian for his protection. The inscription on the ruby was: There is no god but You, the Manifest King. The inscription on the turquoise was: Allah is the King. The inscription on the Chinese iron was: All might belongs to Allah. The inscription on the carnelian was three lines: What Allah wills. There is no power except with Allah. I seek forgiveness from Allah."
