abudawud:3133[Chain 1] Qutaybah b. Saʿīd > Maʿn b. ʿĪsá [Chain 2] ʿUbaydullāh b. ʿUmar al-Jushamī > ʿAbd al-Raḥman b. Mahdī > Ibrāhīm b. Ṭahmān > Abū al-Zubayr > Jābir

A man had a shot of arrow in his chest or throat (the narrator is doubtful). So he died. He was shrouded in his clothes as he was. The narrator said: We were with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ.  

أبو داود:٣١٣٣حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ حَدَّثَنَا مَعْنُ بْنُ عِيسَى ح وَحَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ الْجُشَمِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ مَهْدِيٍّ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ طَهْمَانَ عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ عَنْ جَابِرٍ قَالَ

رُمِيَ رَجُلٌ بِسَهْمٍ فِي صَدْرِهِ أَوْ فِي حَلْقِهِ فَمَاتَ فَأُدْرِجَ فِي ثِيَابِهِ كَمَا هُوَ قَالَ وَنَحْنُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ commanded to remove weapons and skins from the martyrs of Uhud, and that they should be buried with their blood and clothes.  

أبو داود:٣١٣٤حَدَّثَنَا زِيَادُ بْنُ أَيُّوبَ وَعِيسَى بْنُ يُونُسَ قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَاصِمٍ عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ السَّائِبِ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ

أَمَرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ بِقَتْلَى أُحُدٍ أَنْ يُنْزَعَ عَنْهُمُ الْحَدِيدُ وَالْجُلُودُ وَأَنْ يُدْفَنُوا بِدِمَائِهِمْ وَثِيَابِهِمْ  

abudawud:3135[Chain 1] Aḥmad b. Ṣāliḥ > Ibn Wahb[Chain 2] Sulaymān b. Dāwud al-Mahrī > Ibn WahbWahadhā Lafẓuh > Usāmah b. Zayd al-Laythī > Ibn Shihāb > Anas b. Mālik Ḥaddathahum

The martyrs of Uhud were not washed, and they were buried with their blood. No prayer was offered over them.  

أبو داود:٣١٣٥حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ صَالِحٍ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ ح وَحَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ دَاوُدَ الْمَهْرِيُّ أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ وَهَذَا لَفْظُهُ أَخْبَرَنِي أُسَامَةُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ اللَّيْثِيُّ أَنَّ ابْنَ شِهَابٍ أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ أَنَسَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ حَدَّثَهُمْ

أَنَّ شُهَدَاءَ أُحُدٍ لَمْ يُغَسَّلُوا وَدُفِنُوا بِدِمَائِهِمْ وَلَمْ يُصَلَّ عَلَيْهِمْ  

abudawud:3136[Chain 1] ʿUthmān b. Abū Shaybah > Zayd / Ibn al-Ḥubāb [Chain 2] Qutaybah b. Saʿīd > Abū Ṣafwān / al-Marwānī > Usāmah > al-Zuhrī > Anas b. Mālik al-Maʿná

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ passed Hamzah who was killed and disfigured. He said: If Safiyyah were not grieved, I would have left him until the birds and beasts of prey would have eaten him, and he would have been resurrected from their bellies. The garments were scanty and the slain were in great number. So one, two and three persons were shrouded in one garment. The narrator Qutaybah added: They were then buried in one grave. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ asked: Which of the two learnt the Qur'an more? He then advanced him toward the qiblah (direction of prayer).  

أبو داود:٣١٣٦حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ حَدَّثَنَا زَيْدٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ الْحُبَابِ ح وَحَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو صَفْوَانَ يَعْنِي الْمَرْوَانِيَّ عَنْ أُسَامَةَ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ الْمَعْنَى

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ مَرَّ عَلَى حَمْزَةَ وَقَدْ مُثِّلَ بِهِ فَقَالَ لَوْلاَ أَنْ تَجِدَ صَفِيَّةُ فِي نَفْسِهَا لَتَرَكْتُهُ حَتَّى تَأْكُلَهُ الْعَافِيَةُ حَتَّى يُحْشَرَ مِنْ بُطُونِهَا وَقَلَّتِ الثِّيَابُ وَكَثُرَتِ الْقَتْلَى فَكَانَ الرَّجُلُ وَالرَّجُلاَنِ وَالثَّلاَثَةُ يُكَفَّنُونَ فِي الثَّوْبِ الْوَاحِدِ زَادَ قُتَيْبَةُ ثُمَّ يُدْفَنُونَ فِي قَبْرٍ وَاحِدٍ فَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَسْأَلُ أَيُّهُمْ أَكْثَرُهُمْ قُرْآنًا فَيُقَدِّمُهُ إِلَى الْقِبْلَةِ  

abudawud:3137ʿAbbās al-ʿAnbarī > ʿUthmān b. ʿUmar > Usāmah > al-Zuhrī > Anas

The Prophet ﷺ passed by Hamzah who was disfigured (after being killed). He did not offer prayer over any martyr except him.  

أبو داود:٣١٣٧حَدَّثَنَا عَبَّاسٌ الْعَنْبَرِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ عُمَرَ حَدَّثَنَا أُسَامَةُ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ أَنَسٍ

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ مَرَّ بِحَمْزَةَ وَقَدْ مُثِّلَ بِهِ وَلَمْ يُصَلِّ عَلَى أَحَدٍ مِنَ الشُّهَدَاءِ غَيْرِهِ  

abudawud:3138Qutaybah b. Saʿīd And Yazīd b. Khālid b. Mawhab > al-Layth > Ibn Shihāb > ʿAbd al-Raḥman b. Kaʿb b. Mālik > Jābir b. ʿAbdullāh

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ combined two persons from among the martyrs of Uhud (in one garment), and said: Which of the two has learnt the Qur'an more ? When one of them was pointed to him, he advanced him in the grave, saying: I shall be witness to all these (martyrs) on the Day of Judgement. He then ordered them to be buried without being washed.  

أبو داود:٣١٣٨حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ وَيَزِيدُ بْنُ خَالِدِ بْنِ مَوْهَبٍ أَنَّ اللَّيْثَ حَدَّثَهُمْ عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ كَعْبِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ أَنَّ جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ

أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ كَانَ يَجْمَعُ بَيْنَ الرَّجُلَيْنِ مِنْ قَتْلَى أُحُدٍ وَيَقُولُ أَيُّهُمَا أَكْثَرُ أَخْذًا لِلْقُرْآنِ فَإِذَا أُشِيرَ لَهُ إِلَى أَحَدِهِمَا قَدَّمَهُ فِي اللَّحْدِ وَقَالَ أَنَا شَهِيدٌ عَلَى هَؤُلاَءِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ وَأَمَرَ بِدَفْنِهِمْ بِدِمَائِهِمْ وَلَمْ يُغَسَّلُوا  

abudawud:3139Sulaymān b. Dāwud al-Mahrī > Ibn Wahb > al-Layth Bihadhā al-Ḥadīth Bimaʿnāh

He combined two persons from among the martyrs of Uhud in one garment.  

أبو داود:٣١٣٩حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ دَاوُدَ الْمَهْرِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ عَنِ اللَّيْثِ بِهَذَا الْحَدِيثِ بِمَعْنَاهُ قَالَ

يَجْمَعُ بَيْنَ الرَّجُلَيْنِ مِنْ قَتْلَى أُحُدٍ فِي ثَوْبٍ وَاحِدٍ
