ahmad:16538Abū al-Naḍr > ʿIkrimah > Iyās b. Salamah from my father > Bāraz ʿAmmī Yawm Khaybar Marḥab al-Yahūdī

[Machine] My uncle, Baraz, stood out on the day of Khaybar and greeted the Jew. He said, "Welcome, O Jew." The Jew replied, "Welcome indeed, O Baraz. Khaybar knows that I am a welcomed warrior, a tested champion. When the battles are ignited, I become ablaze."

My uncle, Aamir, responded, "Welcome, O Baraz. Khaybar knows that I am an experienced warrior, a daring hero."

They exchanged two strikes, and Baraz's sword fell on Aamir's shield. It slid down and accidentally cut his ankle, severing his tendon. Baraz said, "Salama bin Al-Akwa' was there, and I met some of the companions of the Prophet ﷺ . They said, 'Aamir's actions have come to an end; he has killed himself.' Salama said, 'So I went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ crying. I said, 'O Messenger of Allah, Aamir's actions have come to an end.' The Prophet ﷺ asked, 'Who said that?' I said, 'Some of your companions.' The Prophet ﷺ said, 'Whoever said that has lied. Rather, he will be rewarded twice. When he went to Khaybar, he was reciting poetry about the companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , and he was among them, and yet they were saying, 'By Allah, if it weren't for Allah, we would not have been guided, nor would we have been charitable, nor would we have prayed. Indeed, when those who transgress against us desire evil, we defend ourselves, seeking no help from your favor. So stand firm, for we shall meet them and send down tranquility upon us.'"

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'Who is this person?' They said, 'It is Aamir, O Messenger of Allah.' The Prophet ﷺ said, 'May your Lord forgive you.'

Upon hearing this, Umar ibn Al-Khattab said, 'O Messenger of Allah, if you grant us respite with Aamir, he should be given the opportunity to be martyred.' Salama said, 'Then the Prophet ﷺ sent me to Ali and said, 'I will bestow the flag upon a man who loves Allah and His Messenger, or whom Allah and His Messenger love.' I brought Ali, and I led him. He spitted in the Prophet's ﷺ eye and then received the flag. Marhaba went forward, swinging his sword and reciting poetry. He said, 'Khaybar surely knows that I am Marhaba, the champion wielding the weapon. When the battles are ignited, I become ablaze.' Ali responded, 'I am the one whom my mother named Haydar. I am like the thorny bush, unpleasant to the sight. I repay them measure for measure, like weighing the sandam. So I split Marhaba's head with my sword, and the victory was through my hands.'"

We went out with Messenger of Allah ﷺ to Khaibar and we travelled during the night. A man amongst the people said to 'Amir bin Al-Aqwa', "Won't you let us hear your poetry?" 'Amir was a poet, and so he got down and started (chanting Huda) reciting for the people, poetry that keep pace with the camel's foot steps, saying, "O Allah! Without You we would not have been guided on the right path, neither would we have given in charity, nor would we have prayed. So please forgive us what we have committed. Let all of us be sacrificed for Your cause and when we meet our enemy, make our feet firm and bestow peace and calmness on us and if they (our enemy) will call us towards an unjust thing we will refuse. The infidels have made a hue and cry to ask others help against us. Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Who is that driver (of the camels)?" They said, "He is 'Amir bin Al-Aqwa."' He said, "May Allah bestow His mercy on him." A man among the people said, Has Martyrdom been granted to him, O Allah's Prophet! Would that you let us enjoy his company longer." We reached (the people of) Khaibar and besieged them till we were stricken with severe hunger but Allah helped the Muslims conquer Khaibar. In the evening of its conquest the people made many fires. Messenger of Allah ﷺ asked, "What are those fires? For what are you making fires?" They said, "For cooking meat." He asked, "What kind of meat?" They said, "Donkeys' meat." Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Throw away the meat and break the cooking pots." A man said, O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! Shall we throw away the meat and wash the cooking pots?" He said, "You can do that too." When the army files aligned in rows (for the battle), 'Amir's sword was a short one, and while attacking a Jew with it in order to hit him, the sharp edge of the sword turned back and hit 'Amir's knee and caused him to die. When the Muslims returned (from the battle), Salama said, Messenger of Allah ﷺ saw me pale and said, 'What is wrong with you?"' I said, "Let my parents be sacrificed for you! The people claim that all the deeds of Amir have been annulled." The Prophet ﷺ asked, "Who said so?" I replied, "So-and-so and soand- so and Usaid bin Al-Hudair Al-Ansari said, 'Whoever says so is telling a lie. Verily, 'Amir will have double reward."' (While speaking) the Prophet ﷺ put two of his fingers together to indicate that, and added, "He was really a hard-working man and a Mujahid (devout fighter in Allah's Cause) and rarely have there lived in it (i.e., Medina or the battle-field) an "Arab like him."

[Machine] On the authority of 'Amir, Abu 'Amir, or Abu Malik, that the Prophet ﷺ was sitting in a gathering with his companions when Gabriel came to him in a different form, appearing as a man from the Muslims. Gabriel greeted him and the Prophet ﷺ returned the greeting. Then Gabriel placed his hand on the Prophet's knee and asked, "O Messenger of Allah, what is Islam?" The Prophet ﷺ replied, "It is to submit your face to Allah, to bear witness that there is no god but Allah and that Muhammad is His servant and messenger, to establish the prayer, give the obligatory charity (zakat)." Gabriel asked again, "So if I do this, have I become a Muslim?" The Prophet ﷺ replied, "Yes." Then Gabriel asked, "What is faith?" The Prophet ﷺ replied, "It is to believe in Allah, the Last Day, the angels, the Divine Books, the prophets, life after death, heaven, hell, and fate, both its good and bad." Gabriel asked again, "So if I do this, have I believed?" The Prophet ﷺ replied, "Yes." Then Gabriel asked, "What is excellence (ihsan), O Messenger of Allah?" The Prophet ﷺ replied, "It is to worship Allah as if you see Him, and if you do not see Him, then truly He sees you." Gabriel asked again, "So if I do this, have I excelled?" The Prophet ﷺ replied, "Yes." And we heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ return to him, but we could not see the one speaking to him, nor could we hear his words. The questioner asked, "O Messenger of Allah, when is the Hour?" The Prophet ﷺ replied, "Glory be to Allah, it has five signs which only Allah knows: Allah possesses knowledge of the Hour, He sends down rain, He knows what is in the wombs, no soul knows what it will earn tomorrow, and no soul knows in which land it will die. Indeed, Allah is Knowing and Acquainted." (Surah Luqman, 34) The questioner then said, "O Messenger of Allah, if you wish, I can inform you of two signs that will precede it." The Prophet ﷺ said, "Inform me." The questioner said, "When you see a slave woman giving birth to her mistress, and when you see the barefooted, naked, impoverished shepherds competing in constructing tall buildings." The questioner asked, "And who are they, O Messenger of Allah?" The Prophet ﷺ said, "The Bedouins." Then he turned away, and when we did not see him on his way back, we said, "Glory be to Allah! This is Gabriel who came to teach the people their religion. The hand of Muhammad is in the hand of Gabriel, every time he came to him, I had not received any message except that I already knew it, except for this time."

[Machine] Narrated by 'Amir or Abu 'Amir, Abu Malik, that the Prophet ﷺ was sitting in a gathering with his companions when Jibril came to him in a form other than his usual shape and saluted him. The Prophet ﷺ returned the greeting and then Jibril placed his hand on the Prophet's knee and said, "O Messenger of Allah, what is Islam?" He replied, "To testify that none has the right to be worshipped but Allah, and Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah, to establish the prayer, to give the Zakat, to perform Hajj, and to fast in Ramadan." Jibril then asked him, "You have spoken the truth, so what is Iman (faith)?" He replied, "To believe in Allah, His angels, His books, His messengers, the Last Day, and to believe in predestination and that every good and bad is from Allah." Jibril asked again, "You have spoken the truth, so what is Ihsan (perfection)?" The Prophet ﷺ replied, "To worship Allah as if you see Him, and if you cannot achieve this state of devotion, then be aware that He sees you." Jibril continued to ask the Prophet ﷺ about the signs of the Day of Judgment until he asked, "When will the Hour be?" The Prophet ﷺ replied, "The one being asked does not know more than the one asking. But I will inform you of its signs. When you see barefoot, naked, destitute shepherds competing in the construction of tall buildings, that will be one of its signs. And when you see the hunched-backed, barefoot uncivilized Bedouins competing in building great structures, that will be one of its signs." Then he (Jibril) left. The Prophet ﷺ kept silent for a while and then said, "O Abu Huraira, did you mark or memorize everything?" I said, "O Messenger of Allah, even I cannot memorize all this." Then Allah's Messenger ﷺ passed his hand over my chest and I felt its coolness in my chest, and I knew all that he had said.

عَنْ عَامِرٍ أَوْ أَبِي عَامِرٍ أَبِي مَالِكٍ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ بَيْنَمَا هُوَ جَالِسٌ فِي مَجْلِسٍ فِيهِ أَصْحَابُهُ جَاءَهُ جِبْرِيلُ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ فِي غَيْرِ صُورَتِهِ يَحْسِبُهُ رَجُلًا مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ فَسَلَّمَ عَلَيْهِ فَرَدَّ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامَ ثُمَّ وَضَعَ جِبْرِيلُ يَدَهُ عَلَى رُكْبَتَيِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَقَالَ لَهُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ مَا الْإِسْلَامُ؟ قَالَ أَنْ تُسْلِمَ وَجْهَكَ لِلَّهِ وَتَشْهَدَ أَنْلَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ وَأَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا عَبْدُهُ وَرَسُولُهُ وَتُقِيمَ الصَّلَاةَ وَتُؤْتِيَ الزَّكَاةَ قَالَ فَإِذَا فَعَلْتُ ذَلِكَ فَقَدْ أَسْلَمْتُ؟ قَالَ نَعَمْ ثُمَّ قَالَ مَا الْإِيمَانُ؟ قَالَ أَنْ تُؤْمِنَ بِاللهِ وَالْيَوْمِ الْآخِرِ وَالْمَلَائِكَةِ وَالْكِتَابِ وَالنَّبِيِّينَ وَالْمَوْتِ وَالْحَيَاةِ بَعْدَ الْمَوْتِ وَالْجَنَّةِ وَالنَّارِ وَالْحِسَابِ وَالْمِيزَانِ وَالْقَدَرِ كُلِّهِ خَيْرِهِ وَشَرِّهِ قَالَ فَإِذَا فَعَلْتُ ذَلِكَ فَقَدْ آمَنْتُ؟ قَالَ نَعَمْ ثُمَّ قَالَ مَا الْإِحْسَانُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ؟ قَالَ أَنْ تَعْبُدَ اللهَ كَأَنَّكَ تَرَاهُ فَإِنَّكَ إِنْ كُنْتَ لَا تَرَاهُ فَهُوَ يَرَاكَ قَالَ فَإِذَا فَعَلْتُ ذَلِكَ فَقَدْ أَحْسَنْتُ؟ قَالَ نَعَمْ وَيَسْمَعُ رَجْعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ إِلَيْهِ وَلَا يَرَى الَّذِي يُكَلِّمُهُ وَلَا يَسْمَعُ كَلَامَهُ قَالَ فَمَتَى السَّاعَةُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ سُبْحَانَ اللهِ خَمْسٌ مِنَ الْغَيْبِ لَا يَعْلَمُهَا إِلَّا اللهُ {إِنَّ اللهَ عِنْدَهُ عِلْمُ السَّاعَةِ وَيُنَزِّلُ الْغَيْثَ وَيَعْلَمُ مَا فِي الْأَرْحَامِ وَمَا تَدْرِي نَفْسٌ مَاذَا تَكْسِبُ غَدًا وَمَا تَدْرِي نَفْسٌ بِأَيِّ أَرْضٍ تَمُوتُ إِنَّ اللهَ عَلِيمٌ خَبِيرٌ} [لقمان 34] قَالَ السَّائِلُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنْ شِئْتَ حَدَّثْتُكَ بِعَلَامَتَيْنِ تَكُونَانِ قَبْلَهَا فَقَالَ حَدِّثْنِي فَقَالَ إِذَا رَأَيْتَ الْأَمَةَ تَلِدُ رَبَّهَا وَيَطُولُ أَهْلُ الْبُنْيَانِ بِالْبُنْيَانِ وَكَانَ الْعَالَةُ الْحُفَاةُ رُءُوسَ النَّاسِ قَالَ وَمَنْ أُولَئِكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ؟ قَالَ الْعَرِيبُ قَالَ ثُمَّ وَلَّى فَلَمْ يُرَ طَرِيقُهُ بَعْدُ قَالَ سُبْحَانَ اللهِ ثَلَاثًا جَاءَ لِيُعَلِّمَ النَّاسَ دِينَهُمْ وَالَّذِي نَفْسُ مُحَمَّدٍ بِيَدِهِ مَا جَاءَ لِي قَطُّ إِلَّا وَأَنَا أَعْرِفُهُ إِلَّا أَنْ تَكُونَ هَذِهِ الْمَرَّةُ

[Machine] From Abu Imran Al-Jawni, I do not know of it except from Anas ibn Malik who said: Wahb ibn Umayr witnessed the Battle of Uhud as a disbeliever and he was wounded. He was among the dead when a man from the Ansar passed by and recognized him. The man placed his sword on Wahb's stomach until it came out from his back, then he left him. When the night fell and the cold weather struck him, he went to Makkah, and he was cured. He met Safwan ibn Umayyah in a cave and Wahb said, "If it weren't for my debts and my family, I would have loved to be the one to kill Muhammad." Safwan asked him, "How would you do it?" Wahb replied, "I am a generous man and I would approach him with kindness, then strike him with my sword while riding a horse, and no one would be able to catch me." Safwan said, "Your family is with my family, and you have debts to me." So, Wahb sharpened his sword and named it, then went out to Madinah with the sole intention of killing the Prophet. When he arrived in Madinah, Umar ibn Al-Khattab saw him and felt uneasy about him. Umar said to the companions of the Prophet, "I saw Wahb approaching our city and he is a treacherous man. Prepare to defend your Prophet." The Muslims surrounded the Prophet and Wahb came and stood in front of him. He said, "Good morning, Muhammad." The Prophet replied, "Allah has replaced it with something better." Wahb said, "I have come to redeem my captives." The Prophet asked, "What about the sword?" Wahb said, "We carried it on the day of Badr but we were not successful nor triumphant." The Prophet asked, "What did you say to Safwan in the cave?" Wahb replied, "I informed him of what people on earth say but they call you a liar. But I see that you inform the heavens of your news. I bear witness that there is no god but Allah, and you are the Messenger of Allah." Wahb then said, "Oh Messenger of Allah, give me your turban." The Prophet gave him his turban and Wahb left for Makkah. Umar said, "He has arrived and he is more detestable to me than a pig," but when he returned, Umar said, "He is more beloved to me than some of my children."

"عَنْ أبَان بْن سَلَمَةَ قَالَ: أَخْبَرنِى أَبى قَالَ: بَارَزَ عَمِّى يَوْمَ خَيْبَرَ مَرْحَبًا الْيَهُودِىَّ، فَقَالَ مَرْحَبٌ:

قَدْ عَلِمتْ الحباير (* *) بْن مَرْحَبُ ... شَاكِى السِّلَاحِ بَطلٌ مُجَرِّبُ

إِذَا الْحُرُوبُ أَقْبَلَتْ تَلَهَّبُ

فَقالَ عَمِّى عَامِرٌ:

قَدْ عَلِمَتْ خَيْبَرُ أَنِّى عَامِرُ ... شَاكِى السِّلَاحِ بَطَلٌ مُعافِرُ

فاخْتَلَفَا ضَرْبَتَيْن، فَوَقَعَ سَيْفُ مَرْحَبٍ في تُرْس عَامِرٍ، فَرَجَعَ السَّيْفُ عَلَى سَاقِه

فَقَطَع أَكْحَلَهُ، فَكَانَتْ فيهَا نَفْسُهُ، قَالَ سَلَمَة: فَلَقيتُ مِنْ صَحَابَةِ النَّبِىِّ ﷺ فَقالُوا: بَطَلَ (عَمَلُ) عامِرٍ قَتَلَ نَفْسَهُ! فَجِئْتُ إِلَى النَّبِىِّ ﷺ أبكى، قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ! أَبَطَلَ عَمَلُ عَامرٍ؟ قَالَ: مَنْ قالَ ذَلِكَ؟ قُلْتُ! أُناسٌ مِنْ أَصْحابِكَ! قالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ : كَذَبَ مَنْ قَالَ ذَلِكَ! بَلْ لَهُ أَجْرُهُ مَرَّتَيْن، حِينَ خرج إِلَى خَيْبَرَ. جَعَلَ يَرْجُزُ بِأَصْحابِ النَّبىِّ ﷺ ، وَفِيهِمُ النَّبِىُّ ﷺ يَسُوقُ الرِّكَابَ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ:

تَالله، لَوْلَا الله مَا اهْتَدَيْنا ... وَلَا تَصَدَّقْنا وَلَا صَلَّيْنا (*)

إِنَّ الَّذِينَ (قَدْ) (* *) بَغوْا عَلَيْنَا ... إِذَا أَرَادُوا فِتْنَةً أَبَيْنَا

وَنَحْنُ عَنْ فَضْلكَ مَا اسْتَغْنَيْنَا ... فَثَبِّتْ الأَقْدَامَ إِنْ لَاقيْنا

وأَنْزِلَنْ سَكِينَةً عَلَيْنَا

فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ : مَنْ هَذَا؟ قَالَ: عامرٌ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ! قَالَ: غَفَرَ لَكَ رَبُّكَ! قَال: وَمَا اسْتَغفَرَ لإِنْسانٍ قَطُّ يَخُصُّهُ إِلَّا اسْتُشْهِدَ، فَلَّما سَمعَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ قَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ! لَوْ مَا مَتَّعتنَا بِعَامِرٍ: فَقَامَ فَاسْتُشْهِدَ، قَالَ سَلَمَةُ: ثُمَّ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ أَرْسَلَنِى إِلَى عَلِىٍّ فَقالَ: لأُعْطِيَنَّ الرَّايَةَ الْيَومَ رَجُلًا يُحِبُّ اللهَ وَرَسُولَهُ، وَيُحِبُّهُ اللهُ وَرَسُولُه، فَجِئْتُ بِهِ أَقُودُهُ أَرْمَدَ، فَبَصَقَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فِى عَيْنَيْه، ثُمَّ أَعْطاهُ الرَّايَةَ، فَخَرَجَ مَرْحَبٌ يَخْطُرُ بِسَيْفهِ فَقَالَ:

قَدْ عَلِمَتْ خَيْبَرُ أَنِّى مَرْحَبُ ... شاكِى السِّلَاحِ بَطَلٌ مُجَرِّبُ

إِذَا الْحُرُوبُ أَقْبَلَتْ تَلْهبُ

فَقالَ عَلِىُّ بْنُ أَبِى طَالبٍ:

أَنَا الَّذى سَمَّتْنى أُمِّى حَيْدَرَةْ ... كَلَيْث غَابَاتٍ كَرِيه الْمَنْظَرَةْ

أُوَفيهِمُ (*) بِالصَّاع كَيْلَ السَّنْدَرْة

فَفَلَقَ رَأسَ مَرْحَبٍ بالسَّيْف، وَكَانَ الْفَتْحُ عَلَى يَدَيْهِ".
