The Messenger of Allah ﷺ ordered Ali bin Abu Talib to go to al-Mihras and fetch water. He brought back water in his shield and presented it to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, who wanted to drink from it but found it had an unpleasant smell, so he refused it. Instead, he used it to wash the blood from his face ﷺ, saying, "The wrath of Allah has intensified against the one who has bloodied the face of the Messenger of Allah."The one who had bloodied his face that day was Utbah bin Abu Waqqas.
أمر رسول الله ﷺ علي بن أبي طالب يأتي المهراس فأتاه بماء في درقته، فأتى به رسول الله ﷺ فأراد أن يشرب منه، فوجد له ريحا فعافه، فغسل به وجهه ﷺ من الدماء التي أصابته وهو يقول: اشتد غضب الله على من أدمى وجه رسول الله. وكان الذي أدماه يومئذ عتبة بن أبي وقاص.

Ishaq bin Rahawayh narrated it in his Musnad, as found in al-Matalib (4260), from Wahb, who said, "My father narrated to us," he said, "I heard Muhammad bin Ishaq say, 'Yahya bin Abbad narrated to me, from his father, from Abdullah bin Zubayr, from Zubayr,'" and so he related it.Its isnad is hasan because of Muhammad bin Ishaq, for his hadith is hasan when he states his source explicitly.
