[Machine] "After that, Abu Sufyan (may Allah be pleased with him) was from the long sea. If I had wished, they would have saved me like a strong camel and I did not carry the blessings for Ibn Sha'ub. My dowry remained the barking of a dog from them until dawn approached sunset. I fight them diligently and I call: 'O the victorious one!' and I repel them with the corner of my prayer niche. Abu Abdullah Al-Hafiz informed us, Abu Al-Abbas Muhammad ibn Ya'qub informed us, Ahmad ibn Abdul Jabbar informed us, Yunus ibn Bukayr narrated from Ibn Ishaq from Al-Zuhri and others in the story of Uhud. He mentioned the story of Hanthala with Abu Sufyan and the lack of support from Ibn Sha'ub and the killing of Hanthala, except that he did not mention the horse. Then, he mentioned the verses of Abu Sufyan in a similar manner to what Al-Shafi'i mentioned, and he added to them. Ibn Ishaq said, the name of Ibn Sha'ub is Shaddad ibn Al-Aswad, like he said. Al-Waqidi mentioned in this story that his horse stumbled."  

أَبُو سُفْيَانَ مِنْ بَعْدِ ذَلِكَ [البحر الطويل] فَلَوْ شِئْتُ نَجَّتْنِي كُمَيْتٌ رَجِيلَةٌ وَلَمْ أَحْمِلِ النَّعْمَاءَ لِابْنِ شَعُوبِ وَمَازَالَ مُهْرِي مُزْجِرَ الْكَلْبِ مِنْهُمُ لَدَى غُدْوَةٍ حَتَّى دَنَتْ لِغُرُوبِ أُقَاتِلُهُمْ طُرًّا وَأَدْعُو يَا لَغَالِبٍ وَأَدْفَعُهُمْ عَنِّي بِرُكْنِ صَلِيبِ 18140 أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ ثنا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ ثنا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْجَبَّارِ ثنا يُونُسُ بْنُ بُكَيْرٍ عَنِ ابْنِ إِسْحَاقَ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ وَغَيْرِهِ فِي قِصَّةِ أُحُدٍ فَذَكَرَ قِصَّةَ حَنْظَلَةَ مَعَ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ وَمَا كَانَ مِنْ مَعُونَةِ ابْنِ شَعُوبٍ أَبَا سُفْيَانَ وَقَتْلِهِ حَنْظَلَةَ إِلَّا أَنَّهُ لَمْ يَذْكُرِ الْعَقْرَ ثُمَّ ذَكَرَ أَبْيَاتَ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ بِنَحْوٍ مِمَّا ذَكَرَهُنَّ الشَّافِعِيُّ وَزَادَ عَلَيْهِنَّ قَالَ ابْنُ إِسْحَاقَ وَاسْمُ ابْنِ شَعُوبٍ شَدَّادُ بْنُ الْأَسْوَدِ كَذَا قَالَ وَقَدْ ذَكَرَ الْوَاقِدِيُّ فِي هَذِهِ الْقِصَّةِ عَقْرَهُ فَرَسَهُ  

[Machine] Narrated by his elders, they mentioned the story of Handhalah. They said, "Handhalah ibn Abi 'Amir took his weapon and joined the Messenger of Allah ﷺ at the Battle of Uhud while he was aligning the rows. When the disbelievers were exposed, Handhalah intercepted Abu Sufyan ibn Harb and struck his horse's hindquarters. The horse bucked, and Abu Sufyan fell to the ground. He started shouting, 'O people of Quraysh, I am Abu Sufyan ibn Harb, and Handhalah wants to kill me with his sword!' The sound reached some men who were not paying attention in the midst of defeat until Al-Aswad ibn Shuaib noticed it. He rushed towards Handhalah with his spear, penetrated him, and Abu Sufyan escaped."  

عَنْ شُيُوخِهِ فَذَكَرُوا قِصَّةَ حَنْظَلَةَ قَالُوا وَأَخَذَ حَنْظَلَةُ بْنُ أَبِي عَامِرٍ ؓ سِلَاحَهُ فَلَحِقَ بِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ بِأُحُدٍ وَهُوَ يُسَوِّي الصُّفُوفَ فَلَمَّا انْكَشَفَ الْمُشْرِكُونَ اعْتَرَضَ حَنْظَلَةُ لِأَبِي سُفْيَانَ بْنِ حَرْبٍ فَضَرَبَ عُرْقُوبَ فَرَسِهِ فَاكْتَسَعَتِ الْفَرَسُ وَيَقَعُ أَبُو سُفْيَانَ إِلَى الْأَرْضِ فَجَعَلَ يَصِيحُ يَا مَعْشَرَ قُرَيْشٍ أَنَا أَبُو سُفْيَانَ بْنُ حَرْبٍ وَحَنْظَلَةُ يُرِيدُ ذَبَحَهُ بِالسَّيْفِ فَأَسْمَعَ الصَّوْتُ رِجَالًا لَا يَلْتَفِتُونَ إِلَيْهِ فِي الْهَزِيمَةِ حَتَّى عَايَنَهُ الْأَسْوَدُ بْنُ شَعُوبٍ فَحَمَلَ عَلَى حَنْظَلَةَ بِالرُّمْحِ فَأَنْفَذَهُ وَهَرَبَ أَبُو سُفْيَانَ  

[Machine] Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent Rabah, a young boy who was a messenger of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. He said, "I went out with him on the back of Talhah's horse during the day. When we woke up, Abdul Rahman ibn Uyainah attacked the Messenger of Allah's ﷺ back. He asked me, 'O Rabah, take this horse and inform Talhah ibn Ubaydullah and inform the Messenger of Allah ﷺ that the polytheists have attacked his horse's saddle.' Then I stood on a hill and faced the city and called out to three voices saying, 'O Sabahah.' Then I went after the traces of the people, throwing stones at them as I am the son of Ak'wa and today is the day of breastfeeding. I threw a man with an arrow until it hit his shoulder, and I said, 'Take this, as I am the son of Ak'wa and today is the day of breastfeeding.' By Allah, I kept throwing them and harassing them until a Persian horse approached me. I came to a tree and sat in its shade, then I threw it and harassed them. When the mountain narrowed, they entered a narrow passage, and I climbed the mountain, then I began throwing them with stones. I kept doing that until Allah did not create a camel from the back of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ that I did not put it behind me and they were left between me and him. The narration continues until he said, 'I did not leave my place until I saw the riders of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ passing through the trees, and the first of them was Al-Akram Al-Asadi, with Abu Qatadah Al-Ansari following him, and behind him was Al-Miqdad ibn Al-Aswad Al-Khindi. So, I took the reins of Al-Akram's horse and said, 'O Al-Akram, the people are few, so be careful that they don't cut you off until the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and his companions catch up.' He said, 'O Salamah, if you believe in Allah and the Last Day and you know that Paradise is true and Hellfire is true, then do not stand between me and martyrdom.' So, I let him go and he encountered Abdul Rahman ibn Uyainah and attacked him, and Abdul Rahman attacked his horse and stabbed him, killing him. Abdul Rahman got on his horse and Abu Qatadah caught up to Abdul Rahman and stabbed him, killing him. Abdul Rahman's horse attacked Abu Qatadah, and Abu Qatadah got on the horse of Al-Akram Al-Asadi and they fled."

The narration continues.
