ahmad:14523Rawḥ > Zakariyyā > Abū al-Zubayr > Jābir b. ʿAbdullāh

I fought in the company of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ nineteen battles. Jabir said: I did not participate in the Battle of Badr and the Battle of Uhud. My father prevented me (from participating in these battles as my age was tender). After ʿAbdullah (my father) was killed on the Day of Uhud, I never lagged behind the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and joined every battle (he fought). (Using translation from Muslim 1813)  

أحمد:١٤٥٢٣حَدَّثَنَا رَوْحٌ حَدَّثَنَا زَكَرِيَّا حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الزُّبَيْرِ

أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللهِ يَقُولُ غَزَوْتُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ تِسْعَ عَشْرَةَ غَزْوَةً قَالَ جَابِرٌ لَمْ أَشْهَدْ بَدْرًا وَلَا أُحُدًا مَنَعَنِي أَبِي قَالَ فَلَمَّا قُتِلَ عَبْدُ اللهِ يَوْمَ أُحُدٍ لَمْ أَتَخَلَّفْ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فِي غَزْوَةٍ قَطُّ
