I would inform you of what Allah has promised (the reward for) those who will kill them at the tongue of Muhammad ﷺ. I asked: Have you heard this from him? He replied: Yes, by the lord of the Kaabah.

Ali said: search for the man with crippled hand. he then mentioned the rest of the tradition. This version has: They took him out from beneath the slain in the dust. Abu al-wadi said: As if I am looking at an ABYSSINIAN WITH A SHIRT ON HIM. HE HAD ONE OF HIS HANDS LIKE THE NIPPLE OF THE FEMALE BREAST, HAVING HAIR ON IT LIKE THE HAIR ON THE TAIL OF THE JERBOA.

Abu Maryam said: This man with the crippled hand was on that day with us in the mosque. We would sit with him by day and by night, and he was a poor man. I saw him attending the meals of Ali (Allah be pleased with him) which he took with the people, and I clothed him with a cloak of mine. Abu Maryam said: The man with the crippled hand was called Nafi Dhu al-Thadyah (Nafi, man of nipple). He had in his hand something like a female breast with a nipple at it ends like the nipple of the female breast. If had some hair on it like the whiskers of cat.
