The Zulfiqar sword is a significant and ancient Islamic weapon with a unique history. According to Islamic tradition, it was bestowed upon Ali (RA) by Allah through Jibrael (AS) during the Battle of the Trench, also known as the Battle of Khandaq.
Ali (RA) was a renowned swordsman and demonstrated great bravery and skill in battles like Badr, Uhud, Khyber, and the Trench. His legendary feats in combat, wielding the Zulfiqar sword, earned him the title "Lion of Allah."
The name "Zulfiqar" has an Arabic origin and means "cleaver of spine." This exceptional sword was distinctive for having two edges, setting it apart from other weapons of its time
