was informing the Sahaba of what was happening in the
battle of Mauta. He said, “Look, now the flag
is with Zaid and he has been made shaheed,
then Jaafar took the flag and he too was made shaheed, Then Abdullah bin Rawaaha
took the flag and he too has been made shaheed, until
the flag was given in the hand of ‘The Sword from the Swords of Allah’ (Khalid bin Waleed).” The
