ذِكْرُ عَدَدِ غَزَوَاتِ الْمُصْطَفَى ﷺ

ibnhibban:6283Abū Khalīfah > Abū al-Walīd And Ibn Kathīr > Shuʿbah > Abū Isḥāq

[Machine] Ibn Kathir said, "O Abu Amr, how many battles did the Messenger of Allah ﷺ fight?" He said, "Nineteen." I asked, "How many battles did you fight with him?" He said, "Seventeen." I asked, "What was the first battle he fought?" He said, "Dhu al-Ushayrah or al-Usayrah." Then Abdullah ibn Zaid prayed two Rak'ahs with the people.  

ابن حبّان:٦٢٨٣أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو خَلِيفَةَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْوَلِيدِ وَابْنُ كَثِيرٍ عَنْ شُعْبَةَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو إِسْحَاقَ قَالَ خَرَجَ النَّاسُ يَسْتَسْقُونَ وَفِيهِمْ زَيْدُ بْنُ أَرْقَمَ مَا بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَهُ إِلَّا رَجُلٌ قَالَ قُلْتُ كَمْ غَزَا؟

وَقَالَ ابْنُ كَثِيرٍ يَا أَبَا عَمْرٍو كَمْ غَزَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ؟ قَالَ «تِسْعَ عَشْرَةَ» قُلْتُ كَمْ غَزَوْتَ مَعَهُ؟ قَالَ سَبْعَ عَشْرَةَ قُلْتُ مَا أَوَّلُ مَا غَزَا؟ قَالَ ذُو الْعُشَيْرَةِ أَوِ الْعُسَيْرَةِ فَصَلَّى عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ زَيْدٍ بِالنَّاسِ رَكْعَتَيْنِ

[Machine] Abdullah ibn Yazid al-Ansari went out to seek rain from the people. He then prayed two rak'ahs and sought rain.

I asked, "How many battles did you participate in with him?" He said, "Seventeen battles." I asked, "Which was the first battle that he fought?" He said, "The Battle of Ushayrah or the Battle of Ushayra."
