[Machine] We accompanied the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and he narrated the hadith in detail. During the time when they attacked the camp of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , he said, "Then I stood on a hill and faced the city. I called out in three different voices, 'O morning!' Then I went in pursuit of the enemy, shooting them with arrows and reciting poetry. I am the son of Akwa' and today is the day of breastfeeding.'" He continued, "We then went to Khaybar and my uncle Amr said, 'By Allah, if it were not for Allah, we would not have been guided, nor would we have given charity or prayed. We would not be independent of Your bounty. So, make our feet firm if we meet the enemy and send down tranquility upon us.'" The Prophet ﷺ asked, "Who is this?" They said, "Amr." The Prophet ﷺ said, "May your Lord forgive you." Then, when we arrived at Khaybar, Marhab came out with his sword, saying, "Khaybar has known that I am Marhab, the armed hero, the brave warrior. If wars advance and flare up, I am the tested champion." Amr confronted him and said, "Khaybar has known that I am Amr, the armed hero, the daring warrior." Then the hadith mentions the return of Amr's sword, his encounter with Ali, his recitation of poetry, his punishment and killing.  

غَزَوْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ بِطُولِهِ وَفِيهِ حِينَ أَغَارُوا عَلَى سَرْحِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ ثُمَّ قُمْتُ عَلَى ثَنِيَّةٍ فَاسْتَقْبَلْتُ الْمَدِينَةَ فَنَادَيْتُ ثَلَاثَةَ أَصْوَاتٍ يَا صَبَاحَاهُ ثُمَّ خَرَجْتُ فِي آثَارِ الْقَوْمِ أَرْمِيهِمْ بِالنَّبْلِ وَأَرْتَجِزُ [البحر الرجز] أَنَا ابْنُ الْأَكْوَعِ وَالْيَوْمَ يَوْمُ الرُّضَّعِ وَفِيهِ قَالَ خَرَجْنَا إِلَى خَيْبَرَ فَجَعَلَ عَمِّي عَامِرٌ يَقُولُ [البحر الرجز] بِاللهِ لَوْلَا اللهُ مَا اهْتَدَيْنَا وَمَا تَصَدَّقْنَا وَمَا صَلَّيْنَا وَنَحْنُ عَنْ فَضْلِكَ مَا اسْتَغْنَيْنَا فَثَبِّتِ الْأَقْدَامَ إِنْ لَاقَيْنَا وَأَنْزِلَنْ سَكِينَةً عَلَيْنَا فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ مَنْ هَذَا؟ قَالُوا عَامِرٌ قَالَ غَفَرَ لَكَ رَبُّكَ وَفِيهِ فَلَمَّا قَدِمْنَا خَيْبَرَ خَرَجَ مَرْحَبٌ يَخْطِرُ بِسَيْفِهِ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ [البحر الرجز] قَدْ عَلِمَتْ خَيْبَرُ أَنِّي مَرْحَبُ شَاكِي السِّلَاحِ بَطَلٌ مُجَرَّبُ إِذَا الْحُرُوبُ أَقْبَلَتْ تَلَهَّبُ فَبَرَزَ لَهُ عَامِرٌ فَقَالَ قَدْ عَلِمَتْ خَيْبَرُ أَنِّي عَامِرُ شَاكِي السِّلَاحِ بَطَلٌ مُغَامِرُ ثُمَّ ذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ فِي رُجُوعِ سَيْفِ عَامِرٍ عَلَى نَفْسِهِ وَخُرُوجِ عَلِيٍّ ؓ وَرَجْزِهِ وَقَتْلِهِ إِيَّاهُ وَقَدْ مَضَى  

[Machine] As for me, I testify that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ did not choose [this position], but people rushed and seized them [leadership positions] forcefully. Abu Sufyan ibn al-Harith held onto the reins of his white mule and said, "I am the Prophet, there is no falsehood in me. I am the son of Abdul-Muttalib."  

أَمَّا أَنَا فَأَشْهَدُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ أَنَّهُ لَمْ يُوَلِّ وَلَكِنْ عَجِلَ سَرَعَانُ الْقَوْمِ فَرَشَقَتْهُمْ هَوَازِنُ وَأَبُو سُفْيَانَ بْنُ الْحَارِثِ آخِذٌ بِرَأْسِ بَغْلَتِهِ الْبَيْضَاءِ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ أَنَا النَّبِيُّ لَا كَذِبْ أَنَا ابْنُ عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبْ  

[Machine] "The sea of Rajz, oh how I long for Paradise, with its pleasant and cool beverages. The Romans, oh how they advance with their punishment. As for Ibn Ishaq, he narrated to me that Abdullah Ibn Rawaha said, when he took the flag that day, 'Oh my soul, I swear that you will either descend it obediently or be compelled. If the people bring forth and tighten the reins, why do I sense that you dislike Paradise? You have been content for so long. Are you nothing more than a drop in the ocean?' Ibn Ishaq said, 'He also said, oh my soul, don't allow yourself to be killed, for you will die. This is the bath of death, and I have prayed and desired. I have been granted guidance if you do as they did, and if you delay, you will be miserable.' He meant Ja'far and Zaid. Then he took his sword and advanced, fighting until he was killed."

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Who will take this sword rightfully?" A man said, "I will." So he took it, and when he encountered the enemy, he would say (Al-Bahr al-Rajz): "I am a man who has pledged allegiance to my friend, and we are beneath the palm tree, never to retreat. I strike with the sword of Allah and His Messenger, increasing in strength." So he fought until he was killed.  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَنْ يَأْخُذُ هَذَا السَّيْفَ بِحَقِّهِ؟ قَالَ فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ أَنَا قَالَ فَأَخَذَهُ فَلَمَّا لَقِيَ الْعَدُوَّ جَعَلَ يَقُولُ [البحر الرجز] إِنِّي امْرُؤٌ بَايَعَنِي خَلِيلِي وَنَحْنُ عِنْدَ أَسْفَلِ النَّخِيلِ أَنْ لَا أَقُومَ الدَّهْرَ فِي الْكُيُولِ أَضْرِبْ بِسَيْفِ اللهِ وَالرَّسُولِ زَادَ غَيْرُهُ فِيهِ فَقَاتَلَ حَتَّى قُتِلَ ؓ
