سَهْلُ بْنُ زِيَادٍ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِي نَصْرٍ عَنْ أَبَانِ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ عَنْ بَعْضِ رِجَالِهِ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (عليه السلام) قَالَ لَمَّا حَفَرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ (صلى الله عليه وآله) الْخَنْدَقَ مَرُّوا بِكُدْيَةٍ فَتَنَاوَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ (صلى الله عليه وآله) الْمِعْوَلَ مِنْ يَدِ أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ (عليه السلام) أَوْ مِنْ يَدِ سَلْمَانَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ فَضَرَبَ بِهَا ضَرْبَةً فَتَفَرَّقَتْ بِثَلَاثِ فِرَقٍ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ (صلى الله عليه وآله) لَقَدْ فُتِحَ عَلَيَّ فِي ضَرْبَتِي هَذِهِ كُنُوزُ كِسْرَى وَ قَيْصَرَ فَقَالَ أَحَدُهُمَا لِصَاحِبِهِ يَعِدُنَا بِكُنُوزِ كِسْرَى وَ قَيْصَرَ وَ مَا يَقْدِرُ أَحَدُنَا أَنْ يَخْرُجَ يَتَخَلَّى.
264. Sahl Bin Ziyad, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad Bin Abu Nasr, from Abaan Bin Usmaan, from one of his men, from Abu Abdullah having said: When the Rasool Allah ﷺ dug the trench (Al-Khandaq), he ﷺ came across a rock. So the Rasool Allah ﷺ took a pickaxe from the hand of Amir-ul-Momineen , or from the hand of Salman . He ﷺ struck by it at the rock and it split into three pieces. The Rasool Allah ﷺ said: ‘With this strike the treasures of Chosroe and Caesar have opened up for me ﷺ. So one of them (Abu Bakr or Umar) said to his companion, ‘He ﷺ promises us with the treasures of Chosroe and Caesar whilst no one of us has the control to go out for the toilet’.
