Seerat e Nabi || Jung e Khybar || Maula Ali

24th of Rajab marks the anniversary of the victory of Islam against the Jews in the battle of Khyber. This battle was fought in the 7th Hijrah.
.
When we arrived at the top of the hill, we were out of breath, because Ali had been marching on the double uphill. He established the banner in the rocks and looked upto the fort. When we arrived at the gate of the fort, there was an old Jewish guard watching us approach from one of the turrets. He looked at Imam Ali(as) and shouted - Who are YOU? Notice the emphasis on YOU. Imam Ali(as) replied by reciting the following verse:
.
ANAL LAZI SAMMATNI UMMIYUN HAIDARA
ZARGHAAMU AAJAAMIN, LAITHUN, QASWARA
Translation: I am the one who was named HYDER by his mother, I am the lion of the valley, I am the great lion, the lion who attacks his prey by chasing it.
.
The old man turned to his people inside the fort and said: “YOU ARE DESTROYED!!!”
.
Shah Abdul Haq Muhaddith Dehlavi writes: Apparently, the old man had read some FAZA’EL of Imam Ali(as) in his books and he recognised him from those words of praise. That is why he said what he said to his own people.
