"عَنْ عَمَّارِ بْنِ يَاسِرٍ قَالَ: كُنْتُ أَنَا وَعَلِىُّ بن أبِى طَالِبٍ رَفِيقَيْنِ في غَزْوَةِ العَشِيرَة منْ بَطْنِ يَنْبُع فَلَمَّا نَزَلَهَا رَسُولُ الله ﷺ أَقَامَ فِيهَا شَهْرًا، فَصَالَحَ فِيهَا بَنِى مُدْلِجٍ وَخُلَفَائِهِمْ مِنْ حَمْزةَ فَوَادَعَهُمْ، فَقَالَ لِى عَلِىٌّ: هَلْ لَكَ يَا أَبَا اليَقْظَانِ إن هَؤُلَاءِ نَفَرٌ مِنْ بَنِى مُدْلِجٍ يَعْمَلُونَ فِى عَيْنٍ لَهُمْ فَنَنْظُرُ كَيْفَ يَعْمَلُونَ، فَأَتَيْنَاهُمْ فَنَظَرْنَا إلَيْهِمْ سَاعَةً ثُمَّ غَشِيَنَا النَّوْمُ فَعَمَدْنَا إلى سور مِن الشَّجر في رَقْعَاءَ مِن الأَرْضِ فَنِمْنَا فِيهِ، فَوَالله مَا أَهَبّنَا إِلّا رَسُولُ الله ﷺ فَجَلَسْنَا وَقَدْ تَتَرَّبْنَا مِنْ تِلْكَ الرقعة، فَيَوْمَئِذٍ قَالَ رَسُولُ الله ﷺ لِعلىٍّ يَا أَبَا تُرَابٍ لِمَا عَلَيْهِ مِن التُّرَابِ، فأَخْبَرْنَاهُ بِمَا كَانَ مِنْ أمْرِنَا فَقَالَ: أَلَا أُخْبِرُكُمَا بِأَشْقَى النَّاسِ رجلين؟ قُلْنَا: بَلَى يَا رَسُولَ الله، قَالَ أُحَيْمِرُ ثَمُودَ الَّذِى عَقَر النَّاقَةَ، وَالَّذِى يَضرِبُكَ يَا عَلِىُّ عَلَى هذِهِ وَوَضَعَ رَسُولُ الله ﷺ يَدَهُ عَلَى رَأسِهِ حَتَّى يَبُلَّ مِنْهَا هَذِهِ، وَوَضَعَ يَدَهُ عَلَى لِحْيَتِهِ".

"From 'Ammar ibn Yasir, who said: I and 'Ali ibn Abi Talib were companions in the expedition of al-'Ushayrah, from the valley of Yanbu'. When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ alighted there, he stayed there for a month, and he made a treaty there with the Banu Mudlij and their allies from Hamzah, and he made a truce with them. 'Ali said to me: Do you want, O Abu al-Yaqzan, to see these men of the Banu Mudlij working at a spring of theirs, so we can watch how they work? We came to them and watched them for a while, then sleep overcame us, so we went to a thicket of trees on a stretch of sandy ground and slept in it. By Allah, we were not woken except by the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and we sat up with dust on us from that ground. On that day the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to 'Ali: O Abu Turab (father of dust), because of the dust on him. We told him what had happened to us. He said: Shall I not inform you of the two most wretched people? We said: Yes, O Messenger of Allah. He said: Uhaymir of Thamud, who hamstrung the she-camel, and the one who will strike you, O 'Ali, on this, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ placed his hand on his head until it became wet with blood from it, and placed his hand on his beard."
