Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said on the Day of Khaybar: "Verily, I shall give this banner to a man who loves Allah and His Messenger, and Allah will grant victory at his hands." ‘Umar ibn al-Khattāb said: I never liked leadership except on that day. He said: I kept showing myself in the hope that I might be called for it. He said: The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) called ‘Ali ibn Abi Tālib and gave it to him and said: "Proceed and do not look back until Allah grants you victory." He said: ‘Ali walked for a while and then stopped without looking back and shouted: O Messenger of Allah, on what should I fight the people? He said: "Fight them until they testify that there is no god but Allah and that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah. If they do so, their blood and properties become inviolable for you, except what is rightly justified, and their reckoning is with Allah."
Sumber tidak merekodkan sebarang darjat bagi riwayat ini.
Jika Ensiklopedia Hadis Nabi yang Diterjemahkan (HadeethEnc.com) mengandungi teks yang sama tepat dengan sesuatu riwayat, terjemahannya dipaparkan di bawah riwayat itu dengan menyebut sumbernya. Kedua-duanya dipadankan oleh atur cara, berdasarkan teks Arab sahaja: keseluruhan teks hadis dalam ensiklopedia itu, bersama nama sahabat yang disebutnya, ialah bahagian akhir riwayat itu huruf demi huruf. Tiada sesiapa pun yang telah menyemak padanan ini, dan penyemak Sabīl belum meneliti terjemahannya. Teks Arablah teksnya. Jika ensiklopedia itu belum menterjemahkan sesuatu hadis ke dalam bahasa ini, terjemahan Inggerisnya dipaparkan.
Teks Arab, penomboran, nama kitab dan darjat dipaparkan tepat seperti yang terdapat dalam satu set data terbuka (hadith-api). Sabīl belum mengesahkan ketepatannya mahupun hak ke atasnya, dan semakan ulamanya belum bermula. Sehingga itu, semak sesuatu riwayat dengan edisi bercetak sebelum bergantung padanya.
