Sahih al-Bukhari — Military Expeditions

Narrated Anas: His uncle (Anas bin An-Nadr) was absent from the battle of Badr and he said, "I was absent from the first battle of the Prophet (i.e. Badr battle), and if Allah should let me participate in (a battle) with the Prophet, Allah will see how strongly I will fight." So he encountered the day of Uhud battle. The Muslims fled and he said, "O Allah ! I appeal to You to excuse me for what these people (i.e. the Muslims) have done, and I am clear from what the pagans have done." Then he went forward with his sword and met Sad bin Mu'adh (fleeing), and asked him, "Where are you going, O Sad? I detect a smell of Paradise before Uhud." Then he proceeded on and was martyred. No-body was able to recognize him till his sister recognized him by a mole on his body or by the tips of his fingers. He had over 80 wounds caused by stabbing, striking or shooting with arrows

اخبرنا حسان بن حسان، حدثنا محمد بن طلحة، حدثنا حميد، عن انس رضى الله عنه ان عمه، غاب عن بدر فقال غبت عن اول قتال النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم، لين اشهدني الله مع النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم ليرين الله ما اجد. فلقي يوم احد، فهزم الناس فقال اللهم اني اعتذر اليك مما صنع هولاء يعني المسلمين وابرا اليك مما جاء به المشركون. فتقدم بسيفه فلقي سعد بن معاذ فقال اين يا سعد اني اجد ريح الجنة دون احد. فمضى فقتل، فما عرف حتى عرفته اخته بشامة او ببنانه، وبه بضع وثمانون من طعنة وضربة ورمية بسهم

Narrated Zaid bin Thabit:When we wrote the Holy Qur'an, I missed one of the Verses of Surat-al-Ahzab which I used to hear Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) reciting. Then we searched for it and found it with Khuza`ima bin Thabit Al-Ansari. The Verse was:-- 'Among the Believers are men Who have been true to Their Covenant with Allah, Of them, some have fulfilled Their obligations to Allah (i.e. they have been Killed in Allah's Cause), And some of them are (still) waiting" (33.23) So we wrote this in its place in the Qur'an

حدثنا موسى بن اسماعيل، حدثنا ابراهيم بن سعد، حدثنا ابن شهاب، اخبرني خارجة بن زيد بن ثابت، انه سمع زيد بن ثابت رضى الله عنه يقول فقدت اية من الاحزاب حين نسخنا المصحف، كنت اسمع رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم يقرا بها، فالتمسناها فوجدناها مع خزيمة بن ثابت الانصاري {من المومنين رجال صدقوا ما عاهدوا الله عليه فمنهم من قضى نحبه ومنهم من ينتظر } فالحقناها في سورتها في المصحف

Narrated Zaid bin Thabit:When the Prophet (ﷺ) set out for (the battle of) Uhud, some of those who had gone out with him, returned. The companions of the Prophet (ﷺ) were divided into two groups. One group said, "We will fight them (i.e. the enemy)," and the other group said, "We will not fight them." So there came the Divine Revelation:-- '(O Muslims!) Then what is the matter within you that you are divided into two parties about the hypocrites? Allah has cast them back (to disbelief) Because of what they have earned.' (4.88) On that, the Prophet (ﷺ) said, "That is Taiba (i.e. the city of Medina) which clears one from one's sins as the fire expels the impurities of silver

حدثنا ابو الوليد، حدثنا شعبة، عن عدي بن ثابت، سمعت عبد الله بن يزيد،، يحدث عن زيد بن ثابت رضى الله عنه قال لما خرج النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم الى احد، رجع ناس ممن خرج معه، وكان اصحاب النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم فرقتين، فرقة تقول نقاتلهم. وفرقة تقول لا نقاتلهم. فنزلت {فما لكم في المنافقين فيتين والله اركسهم بما كسبوا} وقال " انها طيبة تنفي الذنوب كما تنفي النار خبث الفضة

حدثنا محمد بن يوسف، عن ابن عيينة، عن عمرو، عن جابر رضى الله عنه قال نزلت هذه الاية فينا {اذ همت طايفتان منكم ان تفشلا} بني سلمة وبني حارثة، وما احب انها لم تنزل، والله يقول {والله وليهما}

Narrated Jabir:"Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said to me, "Have you got married O Jabir?" I replied, "Yes." He asked "What, a virgin or a matron?" I replied, "Not a virgin but a matron." He said, "Why did you not marry a young girl who would have fondled with you?" I replied, "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! My father was martyred on the day of Uhud and left nine (orphan) daughters who are my nine sisters; so I disliked to have another young girl of their age, but (I sought) an (elderly) woman who could comb their hair and look after them." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "You have done the right thing

حدثنا قتيبة، حدثنا سفيان، اخبرنا عمرو، عن جابر، قال قال لي رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم " هل نكحت يا جابر ". قلت نعم. قال " ماذا ابكرا ام ثيبا ". قلت لا بل ثيبا. قال " فهلا جارية تلاعبك ". قلت يا رسول الله، ان ابي قتل يوم احد وترك تسع بنات كن لي تسع اخوات، فكرهت ان اجمع اليهن جارية خرقاء مثلهن، ولكن امراة تمشطهن وتقوم عليهن. قال " اصبت

Narrated Jabir bin `Abdullah:That his father was martyred on the day of the battle of Uhud and was in debt and left six (orphan) daughters. Jabir, added, "When the season of plucking the dates came, I went to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) and said, "You know that my father was martyred on the day of Uhud, and he was heavily in debt, and I would like that the creditors should see you." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Go and pile every kind of dates apart." I did so and called him (i.e. the Prophet (ﷺ) ). When the creditors saw him, they started claiming their debts from me then in such a harsh manner (as they had never done before). So when he saw their attitude, he went round the biggest heap of dates thrice, and then sat over it and said, 'O Jabir), call your companions (i.e. the creditors).' Then he kept on measuring (and giving) to the creditors (their due) till Allah paid all the debt of my father. I would have been satisfied to retain nothing of those dates for my sisters after Allah had paid the debts of my father. But Allah saved all the heaps (of dates), so that when I looked at the heap where the Prophet (ﷺ) had been sitting, it seemed as if a single date had not been taken away thereof

حدثني احمد بن ابي سريج، اخبرنا عبيد الله بن موسى، حدثنا شيبان، عن فراس، عن الشعبي، قال حدثني جابر بن عبد الله رضى الله عنهما ان اباه، استشهد يوم احد وترك عليه دينا، وترك ست بنات، فلما حضر جذاذ النخل قال اتيت رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم فقلت قد علمت ان والدي قد استشهد يوم احد، وترك دينا كثيرا، واني احب ان يراك الغرماء. فقال " اذهب فبيدر كل تمر على ناحية ". ففعلت ثم دعوته، فلما نظروا اليه كانهم اغروا بي تلك الساعة، فلما راى ما يصنعون اطاف حول اعظمها بيدرا ثلاث مرات، ثم جلس عليه، ثم قال " ادع لك اصحابك ". فما زال يكيل لهم حتى ادى الله عن والدي امانته، وانا ارضى ان يودي الله امانة والدي، ولا ارجع الى اخواتي بتمرة، فسلم الله البيادر كلها وحتى اني انظر الى البيدر الذي كان عليه النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم كانها لم تنقص تمرة واحدة

Narrated Sa`d bin Abi Waqqas:I saw Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) on the day of the battle of Uhud accompanied by two men fighting on his behalf. They were dressed in white and were fighting as bravely as possible. I had never seen them before, nor did I see them later on

Narrated Ibn Al Musaiyab:Sa`d bin Abi Waqqas said, "Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) mentioned both his father and mother for me on the day of the battle of Uhud." He meant when the Prophet (ﷺ) said (to Sa`d) while the latter was fighting. "Let my father and mother be sacrificed for you

حدثنا قتيبة، حدثنا ليث، عن يحيى، عن ابن المسيب، انه قال قال سعد بن ابي وقاص رضى الله عنه لقد جمع لي رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم يوم احد ابويه كليهما. يريد حين قال " فداك ابي وامي ". وهو يقاتل

Narrated Anas:When it was the day of Uhud, the people left the Prophet (ﷺ) while Abu Talha was in front of the Prophet (ﷺ) shielding him with his leather shield. Abu Talha was a skillful archer who used to shoot violently. He broke two or three arrow bows on that day. If a man carrying a quiver full of arrows passed by, the Prophet would say (to him), put (scatter) its contents for Abu Talha." The Prophet (ﷺ) would raise his head to look at the enemy, whereupon Abu Talha would say, "Let my father and mother be sacrificed for you ! Do not raise your head, lest an arrow of the enemy should hit you. (Let) my neck (be struck) rather than your neck." I saw `Aisha, the daughter of Abu Bakr, and Um Sulaim rolling up their dresses so that I saw their leg-bangles while they were carrying water skins on their backs and emptying them in the mouths of the (wounded) people. They would return to refill them and again empty them in the mouths of the (wounded) people. The sword fell from Abu Talha's hand twice or thrice (on that day)

حدثنا ابو معمر، حدثنا عبد الوارث، حدثنا عبد العزيز، عن انس رضى الله عنه قال لما كان يوم احد انهزم الناس عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم وابو طلحة بين يدى النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم مجوب عليه بحجفة له، وكان ابو طلحة رجلا راميا شديد النزع، كسر يوميذ قوسين او ثلاثا، وكان الرجل يمر معه بجعبة من النبل فيقول انثرها لابي طلحة. قال ويشرف النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم ينظر الى القوم، فيقول ابو طلحة بابي انت وامي، لا تشرف يصيبك سهم من سهام القوم، نحري دون نحرك. ولقد رايت عايشة بنت ابي بكر وام سليم، وانهما لمشمرتان ارى خدم سوقهما تنقزان القرب على متونهما، تفرغانه في افواه القوم ثم ترجعان فتملانها، ثم تجييان فتفرغانه في افواه القوم، ولقد وقع السيف من يدى ابي طلحة اما مرتين واما ثلاثا

Narrated `Aisha:When it was the day of Uhud, the pagans were defeated. Then Satan, Allah's Curse be upon him, cried loudly, "O Allah's Worshippers, beware of what is behind!" On that, the front files of the (Muslim) forces turned their backs and started fighting with the back files. Hudhaifa looked, and on seeing his father Al-Yaman, he shouted, "O Allah's Worshippers, my father, my father!" But by Allah, they did not stop till they killed him. Hudhaifa said, "May Allah forgive you." (The sub-narrator, `Urwa, said, "By Allah, Hudhaifa continued asking Allah's Forgiveness for the killers of his father till he departed to Allah (i.e. died)

Narrated `Uthman bin Mauhab:A man came to perform the Hajj to (Allah's) House. Seeing some people sitting, he said, "Who are these sitting people?" Somebody said, "They are the people of Quraish." He said, "Who is the old man?" They said, "Ibn `Umar." He went to him and said, "I want to ask you about something; will you tell me about it? I ask you with the respect due to the sanctity of this (Sacred) House, do you know that `Uthman bin `Affan fled on the day of Uhud?" Ibn `Umar said, "Yes." He said, "Do you know that he (i.e. `Uthman) was absent from the Badr (battle) and did not join it?" Ibn `Umar said, "Yes." He said, "Do you know that he failed to be present at the Ridwan Pledge of allegiance (i.e. Pledge of allegiance at Hudaibiya) and did not witness it?" Ibn `Umar replied, "Yes," He then said, "Allahu- Akbar!" Ibn `Umar said, "Come along; I will inform you and explain to you what you have asked. As for the flight (of `Uthman) on the day of Uhud, I testify that Allah forgave him. As regards his absence from the Badr (battle), he was married to the daughter of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) and she was ill, so the Prophet (ﷺ) said to him, 'You will have such reward as a man who has fought the Badr battle will get, and will also have the same share of the booty.' As for his absence from the Ridwan Pledge of allegiance if there had been anybody more respected by the Meccans than `Uthman bin `Affan, the Prophet would surely have sent that man instead of `Uthman. So the Prophet (ﷺ) sent him (i.e. `Uthman to Mecca) and the Ridwan Pledge of allegiance took place after `Uthman had gone to Mecca. The Prophet raised his right hand saying. 'This is the hand of `Uthman,' and clapped it over his other hand and said, "This is for `Uthman.'" Ibn `Umar then said (to the man), "Go now, after taking this information
