'''Fuztu wa Rabb al-Kaʾba''' (Arabic: {{ia|فُزْتُ وَ رَبِّ الْكَعْبَة}}) is a phrase said by [[Imam Ali (a)]] when he was [[Night of Strike|struck]] in the head. The sentence means: "I swear to the Lord of the [[Ka'ba]] that I have prospered." Different [[Shi'ite]] scholars, such as [[al-Sayyid al-Radi]] and [[Ibn Shahrashub]] as well as [[Sunni]] scholars, such as [[Ibn Athir]] and [[al-Baladhuri]], have cited the sentence. A few recent sources have cited the sentence as follows: "Fuztu bi-Rabb al-Ka'ba" ({{ia|فُزتُ بِرَبِّ الکَعبة}}).
