[Machine] According to Ibn Ishaq, Zaid bin Thabit bin Ad-Dhahhak bin Lawdhan bin Amr bin Abdi Awf bin Ghanm bin Malik bin An-Najjar was amongst those who witnessed the Battle of the Trench and he was among those who carried the soil alongside the Muslims.  

عَنِ ابْنِ إِسْحَاقَ «فِيمَنْ شَهِدَ الْخَنْدَقَ زَيْدُ بْنُ ثَابِتِ بْنِ الضَّحَّاكِ بْنِ لَوْذَانَ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ عَبْدِ عَوْفِ بْنِ غَنْمِ بْنِ مَالِكِ بْنِ النَّجَّارِ وَكَانَ فِيمَنْ يَنْقُلُ التُّرَابَ يَوْمَئِذٍ مَعَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ»  

[Machine] "And it is said: Abu Kharajah is Zaid son of Thabit son of Dahhak son of Zaid son of Lawthan son of Amr son of Abd Awf son of Ghanem son of Malik son of Najar al-Ansari, he died in the year forty-five."  

وَيُقَالُ أَبُو خَارِجَةَ زَيْدُ بْنُ ثَابِتِ بْنِ الضَّحَّاكِ بْنِ زَيْدِ بْنِ لَوْذَانَ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ عَبْدِ عَوْفِ بْنِ غَنْمِ بْنِ مَالِكِ بْنِ النَّجَّارِ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ تُوُفِّيَ سَنَةَ خَمْسٍ وَأَرْبَعِينَ»  

[Machine] "And Abu Sa'id Zaid ibn Thabit ibn Aldhahak died in the year forty-five."  

«وَمَاتَ أَبُو سَعِيدٍ زَيْدُ بْنُ ثَابِتِ بْنِ الضَّحَّاكِ سَنَةَ خَمْسٍ وَأَرْبَعِينَ»  

[Machine] Zaid ibn Thabit witnessed the Battle of Bu'ath when I was only six years old. This happened five years before the migration of the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him. The Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, arrived in Medina when I was eleven years old. I was brought to the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, and they said, "This is a young boy from the Khazraj tribe who has memorized sixteen surahs." However, I was not allowed to participate in the Battle of Badr or Uhud. But I was allowed to participate in the Battle of the Trench.  

زَيْدُ بْنُ ثَابِتٍ كَانَتْ وَقْعَةُ بُعَاثَ وَأَنَا ابْنُ سِتِّ سِنِينَ وَكَانَتْ قَبْلَ هِجْرَةِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ بِخَمْسِ سِنِينَ فَقَدِمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ الْمَدِينَةَ وَأَنَا ابْنُ إِحْدَى عَشْرَةَ سَنَةً وَأُتِيَ بِي إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالُوا غُلَامٌ مِنَ الْخَزْرَجِ قَدْ قَرَأَ سِتَّ عَشْرَةَ سُورَةً فَلَمْ أُجَزْ فِي بَدْرٍ وَلَا أُحُدٍ وَأُجَزْتُ فِي الْخَنْدَقِ  

[Machine] "Zaid son of Thabit son of Dihhak son of Zaid son of Lu'dhan son of Amr son of Abd Awf son of Ghanim son of Malik son of Najjar died in the year forty-four or forty-five."  

«زَيْدُ بْنُ ثَابِتِ بْنِ الضَّحَّاكِ بْنِ زَيْدِ بْنِ لَوْذَانَ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ عَبْدِ عَوْفِ بْنِ غَنْمِ بْنِ مَالِكِ بْنِ النَّجَّارِ مَاتَ سَنَةَ أَرْبَعٍ أَوْ خَمْسٍ وَأَرْبَعِينَ»  

[Machine] "To bury him before sunrise became my opinion while the sun was turning yellow. Then the Ansar came and said, 'He should not be buried except during daylight so that people can gather for him.' Marwan heard the voices and came walking until he entered upon me. He said, 'It is my determination that he should not be buried until morning.' When we became morning, we washed him three times: the first with water, the second with water and sidr, and the third with water and camphor. And we shrouded him in three garments, one of which was a white cloth that Muawiya had sent for him. We prayed over him after sunrise. Marwan ibn al-Hakam prayed over him and Marwan sent for Jazur, and it was slaughtered, and the people and the women were fed, and they cried three times."  

أَنْ تَصْفَرَّ الشَّمْسُ وَكَانَ مِنْ رَأْيِي دَفْنُهُ قَبْلَ أَنْ أَصْبَحَ فَجَاءَتِ الْأَنْصَارُ فَقَالَتْ لَا يُدْفَنُ إِلَّا نَهَارًا لِيَجْتَمِعَ لَهُ النَّاسُ فَسَمِعَ مَرْوَانُ الْأَصْوَاتَ فَأَقْبَلَ يَمْشِي حَتَّى دَخَلَ عَلَيَّ فَقَالَ «عَزِيمَةٌ مِنِّي أَنْ لَا يُدْفَنَ حَتَّى يُصْبِحَ» فَلَمَّا أَصْبَحْنَا غَسَّلْنَاهُ ثَلَاثًا الْأُولَى بِالْمَاءِ وَالثَّانِيَةُ بِالْمَاءِ وَالسِّدْرِ وَالثَّالِثَةُ بِالْمَاءِ وَالْكَافُورِ وَكَفَّنَّاهُ فِي ثَلَاثَةِ أَثْوَابٍ أَحَدُهَا بُرْدٌ كَانَ كَسَاهُ إِيَّاهُ مُعَاوِيَةُ وَصَلَّيْنَا عَلَيْهِ بَعْدَ طُلُوعِ الشَّمْسِ وَصَلَّى عَلَيْهِ مَرْوَانُ بْنُ الْحَكَمِ وَأَرْسَلَ إِلَيْهِ مَرْوَانُ بِجَزُورٍ فَنُحِرَتْ وَأَطْعَمَ النَّاسَ وَالنِّسَاءُ بَكَيْنَ ثَلَاثًا  

[Machine] There was a Sahabi called Thabit ibn Ubaid who asked the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , "Do you speak Syriac?" I said, "No." The Prophet ﷺ said, "Learn it, for it brings us books." So, within seventeen days, I learned it. Al-A'mash said, "Books used to come to him and no one could read them except those who trusted him." This Hadith is considered Sahih if it is proven that Thabit ibn Ubaid heard it from Zaid ibn Thabit without any interruption.  

لِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «أَتُحْسِنُ السُّرْيَانِيَّةَ؟» فَقُلْتُ لَا قَالَ «فَتَعَلَّمْهَا فَإِنَّهُ يَأْتِينَا كُتُبٌ» فَتَعَلَّمْتُهَا فِي سَبْعَةَ عَشَرَ يَوْمًا قَالَ الْأَعْمَشُ «كَانَتْ تَأْتِيَهُ كُتُبٌ لَا يَشْتَهِي أَنْ يَطَّلِعَ عَلَيْهَا إِلَّا مَنْ يَثِقُ بِهِ» صَحِيحٌ إِنْ كَانَ ثَابِتُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ سَمِعَهُ مِنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ وَلَمْ يُخَرِّجَاهُ صحيح إن كان ثابت سمعه من زيد  

[Machine] "I said to Zaid ibn Thabit, O Abu Kharijah"  

«قُلْتُ لِزَيْدِ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ يَا أَبَا خَارِجَةَ»  

[Machine] "I attended the funeral of Zaid ibn Thabit, and when he was buried in his grave." And he mentioned the hadith.  

«شَهِدْتُ جِنَازَةَ زَيْدِ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ فَلَمَّا دُفِنَ فِي قَبْرِهِ» وَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The most merciful among my Ummah (nation) towards my Ummah is Abu Bakr, and the strongest of them in the matter of Allah is Umar, and the most modest among them is Uthman, and the most knowledgeable about the Book of Allah is Ubayy bin Ka'b, and the most qualified to distinguish between lawful and unlawful matters is Mu'adh, except that every Ummah has a trustworthy person, and the trustworthy person of this Ummah is Abu Ubaidah bin Jarrah." This is an authentic chain, according to the conditions of the two Sheikhs (Al-Bukhari and Muslim), and they did not exclude it using this version. They only agreed on mentioning Abu Ubaidah in the chain, and I have mentioned its reason in the book of Al-Talkhis according to the conditions of Al-Bukhari and Muslim.  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «أرْحَمُ أُمَّتِي بِأُمَّتِي أَبُو بَكْرٍ وَأَشَدُّهُمْ فِي أَمْرِ اللَّهِ عُمَرُ وَأَصْدَقُهُمْ حَيَاءً عُثْمَانُ وَأَقْرَؤُهُمْ لِكِتَابِ اللَّهِ أُبَيُّ بْنُ كَعْبٍ وَأَفْرَضُهُمْ زَيْدُ بْنُ ثَابِتٍ وَأَعْلَمُهُمْ بِالْحَلَالِ وَالْحَرَامِ مُعَاذٌ إِلَّا أَنَّ لِكُلِّ أُمَّةٍ أَمِينًا وَإِنَّ أَمِينَ هَذِهِ الْأُمَّةِ أَبُوعُبَيْدَةَ بْنُ الْجَرَّاحِ» هَذَا إِسْنَادٌ صَحِيحٌ عَلَى شَرْطِ الشَّيْخَيْنِ وَلَمْ يُخَرِّجَاهُ بِهَذِهِ السِّيَاقَةِ وَإِنَّمَا اتَّفَقَا بِإِسْنَادِهِ هَذَا عَلَى ذِكْرِ أَبِي عُبَيْدَةَ فَقَطْ وَقَدْ ذَكَرْتُ عِلَّتَهُ فِي كِتَابِ التَّلْخِيصِ على شرط البخاري ومسلم  

[Machine] He turned to the Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, and said, "This is how we treat our elders and our scholars." The narration is authentic according to the conditions of Imam Muslim, but he did not include it. It is part of the virtues of Zaid bin Thabit that I began with a hadith about collecting the Quran because he has many virtues. However, the two sheikhs (Imam Muslim and Imam Bukhari) agreed not to include it, so I left it. Al-Dhahabi did not mention it in his summary.  

لَهُ تَنَحَّ يَا ابْنَ عَمِّ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ «إِنَّا هَكَذَا نَفْعَلُ بِكُبَرَائِنَا وَعُلَمَائِنَا» صَحِيحُ الْإِسْنَادِ عَلَى شَرْطِ مُسْلِمٍ وَلَمْ يُخَرِّجَاهُ كَانَ مِنْ حُكْمِ مَنَاقِبِ زَيْدِ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ أَنْ أَبْدَأَ فِيهِ بِحَدِيثِ جَمْعِ الْقُرْآنِ فَإِنَّهُ لَهُ مَنَاقِبُ كَثِيرَةٌ لَكِنَّ الشَّيْخَيْنِ قَدِ اتَّفَقَا عَلَى إِخْرَاجِهِ فَلِذَلِكَ تَرَكْتُهُ سكت عنه الذهبي في التلخيص
