Abu Ahmed Ibn Muhammad Al-Kurdi asked (Sheikh Wali Raslan), "One day I saw him on the outskirts of Damascus, throwing pebbles, so I asked him to explain, and he said, "These are arrows, aimed at the Franks." (The Armies of the Crusaders) At that very point in time, the Franks had moved out toward the coast, pursued by an army of the Muslims.
Shortly after that, people said, "We saw pebbles descending from the sky, raining down through the air upon the heads of the Franks." It even happened that a single pebble would strike a mounted knight, and he and his horse would both be destroyed, through the grace of the Sheikh (may Allah be well pleased with him).
