It was indeed him, the commander-in-chief of Imam Ali's (A.S.) army. History has it on that particular day he attacked the enemy so ferociously that his shout of Allahu Akbar, every time he killed a man, was heard no less than 400 times.
When vistory was near Amr al-Aas on Muawiya's side said, "Call the enemy to the Word of God."
Muawiya eagerly accepted these words and his men raised 500 copies of the Holy Qur'an on their spears, saying that the Holy Book would decide their differences. This trick had a strange effect on some people in the army of Imam Ali (A.S.), who dropped their weapons and agreed that the Holy Qur'an should decide the matter.
How does he, whose guardian is Allah, get perished? And how can he, who is being pursued by Allah, get salvation? (Imam Mohammad Taqi
