Saad is given back the sword he captured at Badr

ahmad:1556 – Abū Muʿāwiyah > Abū Isḥāq al-Shaybānī > Muḥammad b. ʿUbaydullah al-Thaqafī > Saʿd b. Abī Waqqāṣ

[AI] When it was the day of Badr, my brother Umayr was killed, and I killed سعيد b. al-As and took his sword, which was called Dhu al-Katifa. I brought it to the Prophet of Allah ﷺ, and he said: "Go and throw it in with the collected spoils." He said: So I returned, carrying what only Allah knows because of the killing of my brother and the taking of my spoils. He said: I had only gone a little way when Surat al-Anfal was revealed, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to me: "Go and take your sword."

أحمد:١٥٥٦ – حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو إِسْحَاقَ الشَّيْبَانِيُّ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ الثَّقَفِيِّ عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ أَبِي وَقَّاصٍ قَالَ

لَمَّا كَانَ يَوْمُ بَدْرٍ، قُتِلَ أَخِي عُمَيْرٌ، وَقَتَلْتُ سَعِيدَ بْنَ الْعَاصِ، وَأَخَذْتُ سَيْفَهُ، وَكَانَ يُسَمَّى ذَا الْكَتِيفَةِ، فَأَتَيْتُ بِهِ نَبِيَّ اللهِ ﷺ، فَقَالَ: «اذْهَبْ فَاطْرَحْهُ فِي الْقَبَضِ». قَالَ: فَرَجَعْتُ، وَبِي مَا لَا يَعْلَمُهُ إِلَّا اللهُ مِنْ قَتْلِ أَخِي وَأَخْذِ سَلَبِي. قَالَ: فَمَا جَاوَزْتُ إِلَّا يَسِيرًا حَتَّى نَزَلَتْ سُورَةُ الْأَنْفَالِ، فَقَالَ لِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: «اذْهَبْ فَخُذْ سَيْفَكَ».

عَنْ سَعْدٍ قَالَ لَمَّا كَانَ يَوْمُ أَحَدٍ قَتَلْتُ سَعِيدَ بْنِ الْعَاصِ وَأَخَذْتُ سَيْفَهُ وَكَانَ سَيْفًا لَهُ ثَمَنٌ قَالَ فَجِئْتُ بِهِ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَقَدْ قَتَلَ أَخِي عُمَيْرَ قَبْلَ ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ لِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ اذْهَبْ فَاطْرَحْهُ يَعْنِي فِي الْمَغَانِمِ قَالَ فَرَجَعْتُ وَبِي مَا لَا يَعْلَمُهُ إِلَّا اللَّهُ مِنْ قَتْلِ أَخِي وَأَخْذِ سَلْبِي قَالَ فَمَا جَاوَزْتُ إِلَّا قَرِيبًا حَتَّى نَزَلَتْ سُورَةُ الْأَنْفَالِ فَدَعَانِي النَّبِيُّ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ وَقَالَ اذْهَبْ فَخُذْ سَيْفَكَ وَهَذَا الْحَدِيثُ لَا نَعْلَمُهُ يُرْوَى عَنْ سَعْدٍ إِلَّا مِنْ هَذَا الْوَجْهِ
