"عَنْ عَلىٍّ قَالَ: كُنْتُ أَنْطَلِقُ أَنَا وَأُسَامَةُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ إِلَى أَصْنَامِ قُرَيْشٍ الَّتِى حَوْلَ الْكَعْبَةِ فَنَأتِى الْعَذِرَاتِ () لنأخذ (حريرا من) ( ) فَنَنْطَلَّقُ بِه إِلَى أَصْنَامِ قُرَيْشٍ فَنُلَطِّخُهَا، فَيُصْبِحُونَ فَيَقُولُونَ: مَنْ فَعَلَ هَذَا بِآلِهَتِنَا؟ ! فَيَنْطَلِقُونَ إِلَيْهَا ويَغْسِلُونَهَا باللَّبنِ وَالْمَاء".

"On the authority of 'Ali, who said: 'Usamah ibn Zayd and I used to go to the idols of Quraysh that were around the Ka'bah, and we would come to the filth ( ) to take [some] silk ( ) and we would set off with it to the idols of Quraysh and smear them. In the morning they would say: Who did this to our gods?! They would go to them and wash them with milk and water.'"
