Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Anis (may Allah be pleased with him) says: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) called me and said: I have received news that Khalid bin Sufyan bin Nubaiah is gathering people against me and he is currently at the place of ‘Urnah. Go and kill him. I said: O Messenger of Allah! Please describe a sign for me so that I may recognize him. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: When you see him, you will feel a shiver run through you because of him. So I took my sword and reached him. He was indeed at the place of ‘Urnah with his women and was preparing a place for them. Meanwhile, the time for ‘Asr prayer had also arrived. When I saw him, as per the saying of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), a shiver ran through me. I advanced towards him. I feared that some altercation might occur between me and him which would distract me from the prayer. Therefore, while walking towards him, I began to pray, performing bowing and prostration by gesture. When I reached him, he asked: Who are you? I said: An Arab. I have heard that you are gathering people against that man (Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him), so I have also come. He said: Yes, I am engaged in this effort. So I kept walking with him. When he gave me an opportunity, I attacked him with my sword and killed him, and left from there while his women were bent over him. When I reached the service of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), he saw me and said: You have succeeded. I said: O Messenger of Allah! I have killed him. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: You speak the truth. Al-Hadith.
