It was narrated that Abu Wa'il said: I heard Sahl bin Hunayf at Siffin saying: Do not rely on your own opinions with regard to matters of religion, for I remember the day of Abu Jandal (i.e. Al-Hudaibiyah). If I could have gone against the command of the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) (I would have done so). When we rely upon your opinion to solve a problem, another problem arises to take its place.

وَحَدَّثَنِى إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ الْجَوْهَرِىُّ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ عَنْ مَالِكِ بْنِ مِغْوَلٍ عَنْ أَبِى حَصِينٍ عَنْ أَبِى وَائِلٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ سَهْلَ بْنَ حُنَيْفٍ بِصِفِّينَ يَقُولُ اتَّهِمُوا رَأْيَكُمْ عَلَى دِينِكُمْ فَلَقَدْ رَأَيْتُنِى يَوْمَ أَبِى جَنْدَلٍ وَلَوْ أَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ أَرُدَّ أَمْرَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- - مَا فَتَحْنَا مِنْهُ فِى خُصْمٍ إِلاَّ انْفَجَرَ عَلَيْنَا مِنْهُ خُصْمٌ.

It was narrated from Qatadah that Anas bin Malik said: When the Verses "Verily, We have given you (O Muhammad (s.a.w))a manifest victory. 2. That Allah may forgive you your sins of the past and the future, and complete His Favor on you, and guide you on the Straight Path, 3. And that Allah may help you with strong help. 4. He it is Who sent down As-Sakinah (calmness and tranquillity) into the hearts of the believers, that they may grow more in Faith along with their (present) Faith. And to Allah belong the hosts of the heavens and the earth, and Allah is Ever All-Knower, All-Wise. 5. That He may admit the believing men and the believing women to Gardens under which rivers flow (i.e. Paradise) to abide therein forever, and He may expiate from them their sins; and that is with Allah a supreme success" [Al-Fath 48:1-5] were revealed, on the way back from Al-Hudaibiyah, they were overwhelmed with grief and distress. He (the Prophet (s.a.w)) had sacrificed his Hady (sacrificial animal) at Al-Hudaibiyah and he said: "There has been revealed to me a Verse that is dearer to me than the whole world."

وَحَدَّثَنَا نَصْرُ بْنُ عَلِىٍّ الْجَهْضَمِىُّ حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدُ بْنُ الْحَارِثِ حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ أَبِى عَرُوبَةَ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ أَنَّ أَنَسَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ حَدَّثَهُمْ قَالَ لَمَّا نَزَلَتْ (إِنَّا فَتَحْنَا لَكَ فَتْحًا مُبِينًا لِيَغْفِرَ لَكَ اللَّهُ) إِلَى قَوْلِهِ (فَوْزًا عَظِيمًا) مَرْجِعَهُ مِنَ الْحُدَيْبِيَةِ وَهُمْ يُخَالِطُهُمُ الْحُزْنُ وَالْكَآبَةُ وَقَدْ نَحَرَ الْهَدْىَ بِالْحُدَيْبِيَةِ فَقَالَ « لَقَدْ أُنْزِلَتْ عَلَىَّ آيَةٌ هِىَ أَحَبُّ إِلَىَّ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا جَمِيعًا ».

Hudhaifah bin Al-Yaman said: Nothing prevented me from being present at (the battle of) Badr except the fact that Abu Husayl and I set out and were captured by the Kuffar of Quraish. They said: Are you looking for Muhammad? We said: We are not looking for him; we are only headed towards Al-Madinah. They took a covenant from us in the Name of Allah that we would carry on to Al-Madinah and not fight alongside him. We went to the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) and told him about that, and he said: "Go back; we will fulfill the covenant made with them, and we will seek the help of Allah against them."

وَحَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِى شَيْبَةَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ عَنِ الْوَلِيدِ بْنِ جُمَيْعٍ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الطُّفَيْلِ حَدَّثَنَا حُذَيْفَةُ بْنُ الْيَمَانِ قَالَ مَا مَنَعَنِى أَنْ أَشْهَدَ بَدْرًا إِلاَّ أَنِّى خَرَجْتُ أَنَا وَأَبِى - حُسَيْلٌ - قَالَ فَأَخَذَنَا كُفَّارُ قُرَيْشٍ قَالُوا إِنَّكُمْ تُرِيدُونَ مُحَمَّدًا فَقُلْنَا مَا نُرِيدُهُ مَا نُرِيدُ إِلاَّ الْمَدِينَةَ. فَأَخَذُوا مِنَّا عَهْدَ اللَّهِ وَمِيثَاقَهُ لَنَنْصَرِفَنَّ إِلَى الْمَدِينَةِ وَلاَ نُقَاتِلُ مَعَهُ فَأَتَيْنَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- فَأَخْبَرْنَاهُ الْخَبَرَ فَقَالَ « انْصَرِفَا نَفِى لَهُمْ بِعَهْدِهِمْ وَنَسْتَعِينُ اللَّهَ عَلَيْهِمْ ».

It was narrated from Ibrahim At-Taimi that his father said: We were with Hudhaifah, and a man said: If I had met the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) I would have fought alongside him and striven hard. Hudhaifah said: Would you really have done that? I remember that we were with the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) on the night of Al-Ahzab, and there was a strong wind and extreme cold. The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) said: "Is there any man who will bring me news of the people, and Allah, exalted and glorious is He, will join him with me on the Day of Resurrection?" We stayed quiet and none of us answered him. Then he said: "Is there any man who will bring me news of the people, and Allah, exalted and glorious is He, will join him with me on the Day of Resurrection?" We stayed quiet and none of us answered him. Then he said: "Is there any man who will bring me news of the people, and Allah, exalted and glorious is He, will join him with me on the Day of Resurrection?" We stayed quiet and none of us answered him. Then he said: "Get up, O Hudhaifah, and bring us news of the people." I had no alternative but to get up when he called me by name. He said: "Go and bring me news of the people, but do not provoke them against me." When I left him, it became as if I was walking in a heated bath, until I came to them. I saw Abu Sufyan warming his back against the fire, and I put an arrow in my bow and wanted to shoot him, but then I remembered the words of the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w): "Do not provoke them against me." If I had shot I would have hit him. Then I came back, walking as if I were in a heated bath. When I reached him, I told him the news of the people, and when I had finished, I began to feel cold. The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) gave me a spare cloak that he used to wear when he prayed, and I slept until morning, then when morning came he said: "Get up, O heavy sleeper!"

حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ وَإِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ جَمِيعًا عَنْ جَرِيرٍ قَالَ زُهَيْرٌ حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ التَّيْمِىِّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ كُنَّا عِنْدَ حُذَيْفَةَ فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ لَوْ أَدْرَكْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- قَاتَلْتُ مَعَهُ وَأَبْلَيْتُ فَقَالَ حُذَيْفَةُ أَنْتَ كُنْتَ تَفْعَلُ ذَلِكَ لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- لَيْلَةَ الأَحْزَابِ وَأَخَذَتْنَا رِيحٌ شَدِيدَةٌ وَقُرٌّ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- « أَلاَ رَجُلٌ يَأْتِينِى بِخَبَرِ الْقَوْمِ جَعَلَهُ اللَّهُ مَعِى يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ ». فَسَكَتْنَا فَلَمْ يُجِبْهُ مِنَّا أَحَدٌ ثُمَّ قَالَ « أَلاَ رَجُلٌ يَأْتِينَا بِخَبَرِ الْقَوْمِ جَعَلَهُ اللَّهُ مَعِى يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ ». فَسَكَتْنَا فَلَمْ يُجِبْهُ مِنَّا أَحَدٌ ثُمَّ قَالَ « أَلاَ رَجُلٌ يَأْتِينَا بِخَبَرِ الْقَوْمِ جَعَلَهُ اللَّهُ مَعِى يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ ». فَسَكَتْنَا فَلَمْ يُجِبْهُ مِنَّا أَحَدٌ فَقَالَ « قُمْ يَا حُذَيْفَةُ فَأْتِنَا بِخَبَرِ الْقَوْمِ ». فَلَمْ أَجِدْ بُدًّا إِذْ دَعَانِى بِاسْمِى أَنْ أَقُومَ قَالَ « اذْهَبْ فَأْتِنِى بِخَبَرِ الْقَوْمِ وَلاَ تَذْعَرْهُمْ عَلَىَّ ». فَلَمَّا وَلَّيْتُ مِنْ عِنْدِهِ جَعَلْتُ كَأَنَّمَا أَمْشِى فِى حَمَّامٍ حَتَّى أَتَيْتُهُمْ فَرَأَيْتُ أَبَا سُفْيَانَ يَصْلِى ظَهْرَهُ بِالنَّارِ فَوَضَعْتُ سَهْمًا فِى كَبِدِ الْقَوْسِ فَأَرَدْتُ أَنْ أَرْمِيَهُ فَذَكَرْتُ قَوْلَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- « وَلاَ تَذْعَرْهُمْ عَلَىَّ ». وَلَوْ رَمَيْتُهُ لأَصَبْتُهُ فَرَجَعْتُ وَأَنَا أَمْشِى فِى مِثْلِ الْحَمَّامِ فَلَمَّا أَتَيْتُهُ فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ بِخَبَرِ الْقَوْمِ وَفَرَغْتُ قُرِرْتُ فَأَلْبَسَنِى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- مِنْ فَضْلِ عَبَاءَةٍ كَانَتْ عَلَيْهِ يُصَلِّى فِيهَا فَلَمْ أَزَلْ نَائِمًا حَتَّى أَصْبَحْتُ فَلَمَّا أَصْبَحْتُ قَالَ « قُمْ يَا نَوْمَانُ ».

It was narrated from Anas bin Malik that on the day of (the battle of) Uhud the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) was left with only seven men of the Ansar and two men of Quraish. When they were surrounded, he said: "Who will repel them from us and Paradise will be his, or he will be my companion in Paradise?" One of the Ansari men went forward and fought until he was killed. Then they were surrounded again, and he said: "Who will repel them from us and Paradise will be his, or he will be my companion in Paradise?" Another Ansari man went forward and fought until he was killed, and that continued until all seven had been killed. The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) said to his two companions: "We have not been fair to our companions."

وَحَدَّثَنَا هَدَّابُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ الأَزْدِىُّ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ عَنْ عَلِىِّ بْنِ زَيْدٍ وَثَابِتٍ الْبُنَانِىِّ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- أُفْرِدَ يَوْمَ أُحُدٍ فِى سَبْعَةٍ مِنَ الأَنْصَارِ وَرَجُلَيْنِ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ فَلَمَّا رَهِقُوهُ قَالَ « مَنْ يَرُدُّهُمْ عَنَّا وَلَهُ الْجَنَّةُ أَوْ هُوَ رَفِيقِى فِى الْجَنَّةِ ». فَتَقَدَّمَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الأَنْصَارِ فَقَاتَلَ حَتَّى قُتِلَ ثُمَّ رَهِقُوهُ أَيْضًا فَقَالَ « مَنْ يَرُدُّهُمْ عَنَّا وَلَهُ الْجَنَّةُ أَوْ هُوَ رَفِيقِى فِى الْجَنَّةِ ». فَتَقَدَّمَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الأَنْصَارِ فَقَاتَلَ حَتَّى قُتِلَ فَلَمْ يَزَلْ كَذَلِكَ حَتَّى قُتِلَ السَّبْعَةُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- لِصَاحِبَيْهِ « مَا أَنْصَفْنَا أَصْحَابَنَا ».

'Abdul' Aziz bin Abi Hazim narrated that his father heard Sahl bin Sa'd being asked about the wounds sustained by the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) on the day of (the battle of) Uhud. He said: The face of the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) was wounded and his front tooth was broken, and his helmet was crushed on his head. Fatimah, the daughter of the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w), was washing away the blood, and 'Ali bin Abi Talib was pouring water on it from a shield. When Fatimah saw that the water was only making the bleeding worse, she took a piece of reed mat and burnt it until it turned to ashes, then she placed it on the wound and the bleeding stopped.

حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ يَحْيَى التَّمِيمِىُّ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ أَبِى حَازِمٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ سَهْلَ بْنَ سَعْدٍ يُسْأَلُ عَنْ جُرْحِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- يَوْمَ أُحُدٍ فَقَالَ جُرِحَ وَجْهُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- وَكُسِرَتْ رَبَاعِيَتُهُ وَهُشِمَتِ الْبَيْضَةُ عَلَى رَأْسِهِ فَكَانَتْ فَاطِمَةُ بِنْتُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- تَغْسِلُ الدَّمَ وَكَانَ عَلِىُّ بْنُ أَبِى طَالِبٍ يَسْكُبُ عَلَيْهَا بِالْمِجَنِّ فَلَمَّا رَأَتْ فَاطِمَةُ أَنَّ الْمَاءَ لاَ يَزِيدُ الدَّمَ إِلاَّ كَثْرَةً أَخَذَتْ قِطْعَةَ حَصِيرٍ فَأَحْرَقَتْهُ حَتَّى صَارَ رَمَادًا ثُمَّ أَلْصَقَتْهُ بِالْجُرْحِ فَاسْتَمْسَكَ الدَّمُ.

It was narrated from Abu Hazim that he head Sahl bin Sa'd being asked about the wounds sustained by the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w). He said: By Allah, I know who washed the wounds of the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) and who poured the water, and with what his wound was treated. Then he mentioned a Hadith like that of 'Abdul-'Aziz (no. 4642), except that he added: ...And his face was wounded. And instead of 'crushed', he said, 'broken'.

حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ - يَعْنِى ابْنَ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الْقَارِىَّ - عَنْ أَبِى حَازِمٍ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ سَهْلَ بْنَ سَعْدٍ وَهُوَ يُسْأَلُ عَنْ جُرْحِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- فَقَالَ أَمَ وَاللَّهِ إِنِّى لأَعْرِفُ مَنْ كَانَ يَغْسِلُ جُرْحَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- وَمَنْ كَانَ يَسْكُبُ الْمَاءَ. وَبِمَاذَا دُووِىَ جُرْحُهُ. ثُمَّ ذَكَرَ نَحْوَ حَدِيثِ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ غَيْرَ أَنَّهُ زَادَ وَجُرِحَ وَجْهُهُ وَقَالَ مَكَانَ هُشِمَتْ كُسِرَتْ.

It was narrated from Anas that the front tooth of the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) was broken on the day of (the battle of) Uhud, and he was wounded in his head. He started to wipe away the blood and said: "How can any people prosper when they wound their Prophet and break his tooth when he is calling them to Allah?" Then Allah revealed the words: "Not for you (O Muhammad (s.a.w), but for Allah) is the decision" [Al 'Imran 3:128].

حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مَسْلَمَةَ بْنِ قَعْنَبٍ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ عَنْ ثَابِتٍ عَنْ أَنَسٍ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- كُسِرَتْ رَبَاعِيَتُهُ يَوْمَ أُحُدٍ وَشُجَّ فِى رَأْسِهِ فَجَعَلَ يَسْلُتُ الدَّمَ عَنْهُ وَيَقُولُ « كَيْفَ يُفْلِحُ قَوْمٌ شَجُّوا نَبِيَّهُمْ وَكَسَرُوا رَبَاعِيَتَهُ وَهُوَ يَدْعُوهُمْ إِلَى اللَّهِ ». فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ (لَيْسَ لَكَ مِنَ الأَمْرِ شَىْءٌ)

It was narrated that 'Abdullah said: It is as if I can see the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w), telling the story of one of the Prophets who was beaten by his people, and he wiped the blood from his face and said: "Lord forgive my people, for they do not know."

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ نُمَيْرٍ حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ حَدَّثَنَا الأَعْمَشُ عَنْ شَقِيقٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ كَأَنِّى أَنْظُرُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- يَحْكِى نَبِيًّا مِنَ الأَنْبِيَاءِ ضَرَبَهُ قَوْمُهُ وَهُوَ يَمْسَحُ الدَّمَ عَنْ وَجْهِهِ وَيَقُولُ « رَبِّ اغْفِرْ لِقَوْمِى فَإِنَّهُمْ لاَ يَعْلَمُونَ ».

Ma'mar bin Hammam bin Munabbih said: This is what Abu Hurairah narrated to us from the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w), and he mentioned a number of Ahadith including the following: The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) said: "Great is the wrath of Allah, Exalted and Glorified is He, towards people who do this to the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w)," and he pointed to his front tooth. And the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) said: "Great is the wrath of Allah towards a man who is killed by the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) (in battle) for the sake of Allah, Exalted and Glorified is He."

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رَافِعٍ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ حَدَّثَنَا مَعْمَرٌ عَنْ هَمَّامِ بْنِ مُنَبِّهٍ قَالَ هَذَا مَا حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- فَذَكَرَ أَحَادِيثَ مِنْهَا وَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- « اشْتَدَّ غَضَبُ اللَّهِ عَلَى قَوْمٍ فَعَلُوا هَذَا بِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- ». وَهُوَ حِينَئِذٍ يُشِيرُ إِلَى رَبَاعِيَتِهِ وَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- « اشْتَدَّ غَضَبُ اللَّهِ عَلَى رَجُلٍ يَقْتُلُهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ فِى سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ ».
