Hadith 38:110

Waki’ narrated to us, from Shu’bah, from ‘Amr ibn Murrah, from ‘Abdullah ibn Salamah, who said: I saw ‘Ammar on the day of Siffin, a dark-skinned, tall old man, and his hands were trembling, and in his hand was a spear. He said: "If they were to strike us until they reached the palm branches of Hajar, I would know that we are upon the truth and that they are upon falsehood."

حدثنا وكيع عن شعبة عن عمرو بن مرة عن عبد الله بن سلمة قال رأيت عمارا يوم صفين شيخا آدم طوالا ويداه ترتعش وبيده الحربة فقال لو ضربونا حتى بلغوا بنا سعفات هجر لعلمت أن مصلحتنا على الحق وأنهم على الباطل
