[Machine] That the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to Abu Talha when he wanted to go out to Khaybar: "Look for a boy from your slaves to serve me." So Abu Talha took me along, while I was a boy who had just reached adolescence. Whenever we would stop, I would serve him and I would hear him frequently saying, "O Allah, I seek refuge in You from worries, sadness, weakness, laziness, stinginess, cowardice, and the burden of debt and the dominance of men." When the fortress was conquered, the beauty of Safiyyah was mentioned to him. She was a bride whose husband had been killed, so the Messenger of Allah ﷺ chose her for himself. When we were at the Sada Al-Sahba, she reached her menstrual period, so the Messenger of Allah ﷺ built a living space for her and took her as his wife. I saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ covering her with his cloak from behind and sitting next to his camel, placing his knee out for her, and she would put her foot on his knee and then ride. When there appeared to us a man from a distance, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "This is a mountain that loves us and we love it." When he approached the city, he said, "O Allah, indeed Ibrahim made Makkah sacred, O Allah, and indeed I make sacred what is between its two sides. O Allah, bless them in their measuring and their journey."
