It is narrated from Hazrat Ikrimah that on the day of the Trench, a man from among the polytheists stood up and asked: Who will come out to duel? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: O Zubair! Stand up. Hazrat Safiyyah submitted: O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! He is my son. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: O Zubair! Stand up. So Hazrat Zubair stood up, and the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whoever among the two rises above his companion, let him kill the other. So Hazrat Zubair rose above him and killed him. Then Hazrat Zubair brought the belongings of the slain man, and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) granted those belongings to him.
