6. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Muhammad ibn ‘Isa from Yunus ibn ‘Abd al-Raman from Muhammad ibn al-Hakim from Abu Ibrahim who said the following:

“The arms are kept with us. They are well protected. Even if they would be placed with the worst of creatures he would be a good one of them. My father told me that when he married a lady from al-Thaqif the house was decorated for the wedding. The next morning he found fifteen nails drawn into that wall. He became very anxious about it and asked his bridegroom to leave the house because he needed the handyman to do some work therein. When he examined the wall he found that all the nails had turned back from the sword and none of them had reached it.”
