English narration

Narrated by أبو هريرة الدوسي

Narrated Abu Hurairah: Amr ibn Uqaysh had given usurious loans in pre-Islamic period; so he disliked to embrace Islam until he took them. He came on the day of Uhud and asked: Where are my cousins? They (the people) replied: At Uhud. He asked: Where is so-and-so? They said: At Uhud. He asked: Where is so-and-so? They said: At Uhud. He then put on his coat of mail and rode his horse; he then proceeded towards them. When the Muslims saw him, they said: Keep away, Amir. He said: I have become a believer. He fought until he was wounded. He was then taken to his family wounded. Saad ibn Muadh came to his sister: Ask him (whether he fought) out of partisanship, out of anger for them, or out of anger for Allah. He said: Out of anger of Allah and His Messenger. He then died and entered Paradise. He did not offer any prayer for Allah.

النص العربي

حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيل ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ ، أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ، أَنْ عَمْرَو بْنَ أُقَيْشٍ ، كَانَ لَهُ رِبًا فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ فَكَرِهَ أَنْ يُسْلِمَ حَتَّى يَأْخُذَهُ فَجَاءَ يَوْمُ أُحُدٍ فَقَالَ : أَيْنَ بَنُو عَمِّي ؟ قَالُوا : بِأُحُدٍ ، قَالَ : أَيْنَ فُلَانٌ ؟ قَالُوا : بِأُحُدٍ ، قَالَ : فَأَيْنَ فُلَانٌ ؟ قَالُوا : بِأُحُدٍ ، فَلَبِسَ لَأْمَتَهُ وَرَكِبَ فَرَسَهُ ثُمَّ تَوَجَّهَ قِبَلَهُمْ فَلَمَّا رَآهُ الْمُسْلِمُونَ قَالُوا : إِلَيْكَ عَنَّا يَا عَمْرُو قَالَ : إِنِّي قَدْ آمَنْتُ ، فَقَاتَلَ حَتَّى جُرِحَ ، فَحُمِلَ إِلَى أَهْلِهِ جَرِيحًا فَجَاءَهُ سَعْدُ بْنُ مُعَاذٍ فَقَالَ لِأُخْتِهِ : سَلِيهِ حَمِيَّةً لِقَوْمِكَ أَوْ غَضَبًا لَهُمْ أَمْ غَضَبًا لِلَّهِ ، فَقَالَ : بَلْ غَضَبًا لِلَّهِ وَلِرَسُولِهِ فَمَاتَ ، فَدَخَلَ الْجَنَّةَ وَمَا صَلَّى لِلَّهِ صَلَاةً .
