\n Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Muhammad ibn \u2018Isa from Yunus ibn \u2018Abd al-Raman from Muhammad ibn al-Hakim, who has narrated: \n Abu Ibrahim -asws (the 7 th Imam -asws ) has said. “The weapons are kept with us -asws . They are well protected. Even if they would be placed with the worst of the creatures they would be a good \u2018one\u2019 of them. My father stated to me that when he married a lady from al-Thaqif the house was decorated for the wedding.

Next morning he -asws found fifteen nails drawn into that wall. He -asws became very anxious about it and asked the bride to leave the house; (as) he needed the repairman to do some work therein. However, when he -asws examined the wall he -asws found that all the pegs (large nails) had turned away from the sword and none of them had reached it.
