English narration

Narrated by اسم مبهم

Narrated Abu Salam: Abu Salam reported on the authority of a man from the companion of the Prophet ﷺ. He said: We attacked a tribe of Juhaynah. A man from the Muslims pursued a man of them, and struck him but missed him. He struck himself with the sword. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Your brother, O group of Muslims. The people hastened towards him, but found him dead. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ wrapped him with his clothes and his blood, and offered (funeral) prayer for him and buried him. They said: Messenger of Allah, is he a martyr? He said: Yes, and I am witness to him.

النص العربي

حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ الدِّمَشْقِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا الْوَلِيدُ ، عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ أَبِي سَلَّامٍ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ أَبِي سَلَّامٍ ، عَنْ رَجُلٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ : أَغَرْنَا عَلَى حَيٍّ مِنْ جُهَيْنَةَ فَطَلَبَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ رَجُلًا مِنْهُمْ فَضَرَبَهُ ، فَأَخْطَأَهُ وَأَصَابَ نَفْسَهُ بِالسَّيْفِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : "

أَخُوكُمْ يَا مَعْشَرَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ فَابْتَدَرَهُ النَّاسُ فَوَجَدُوهُ قَدْ مَاتَ ، فَلَفَّهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِثِيَابِهِ وَدِمَائِهِ وَصَلَّى عَلَيْهِ وَدَفَنَهُ ، فَقَالُوا : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَشَهِيدٌ هُوَ ؟ قَالَ : نَعَمْ وَأَنَا لَهُ شَهِيدٌ
