Miracle 53: Imam Ali (a.s.) Predicts the Outcome of the Battle of Naharwan

It is reportd in the book al-Manaqib of Ibn Shahr Ashub, that,

‘Ameerul Momineen (a.s.) said to his companions regarding the Kharijites: ‘By Allah! Not even ten from you would be killed, and not ten from them will escape’. And in a report: ‘And not even ten from them will escape, nor will even ten of us be destroyed (killed)’.

So, nine from his companions were killed, and nine of them escaped – two to Sijistan, and two to Uman, and two to the city of Al-Jazeera, and two to Al-Yemen, and one to till Mawzan, and the Kharijites in these places are from their offspring’s.1
