Note 516 — Chapter XXXVII · BATTLE OF THE CAMEL. Jumad II., A.H. XXXVI. December, A.D. 656.
Reading edition
This camel is a prominent subject in tradition, as we might expect from its having given its name to the battle, and many tales of heroism are told both in its attacks and defence. One says he never heard anything so fearful as the scream it gave when hamstrung.
