When it was midnight, Umar bin al-Khattab came and stood before the Messenger of Allah—Exalted is His might—and said: "They have been overcome by the cold, and the fire-strikers and flints have become wet, so they cannot produce fire, and they are on the verge of perishing due to the severity of the cold." He—Exalted is His might—turned to Ali—Exalted is His might—and said to him: "Rise, O Ali, and make a fire for them." He—Exalted is His might—arose and went to a green tree, cut one of its branches, and from it, he created a fire for them. He lit it in every place, and they warmed themselves by it, thanked Allah the Exalted, and praised the Messenger of Allah—Exalted is His might—and the Commander of the Faithful—Exalted is His might.
