bayhaqi:18141Abū ʿAbdullāh al-Ḥāfiẓ > Muḥammad b. Aḥmad al-Aṣbahānī > al-Ḥasan b. al-Jahm > al-Ḥusayn b. al-Faraj > Muḥammad b. ʿUmar al-Wāqidī > Shuyūkhih

[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."
