ذِكْرُ أَبِي عَامِرٍ الْأَشْعَرِيِّ ؓ

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ awarded Abu Amer Al-Ash'ari a share of the spoils of war from the Battle of Hunayn. When the horses of the tribe of Talibah were defeated, he pursued them until he caught up with Dureed bin As-Simah. He quickly attacked him and killed him. Abu Musa said, "I became severe with Dureed and killed him, and I took the flag and returned with the people to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . When he saw me with the flag in my hand, he asked, 'Abu Musa, was Abu Amer killed?' I said, 'Yes, O Messenger of Allah.' He raised his hands to supplicate for him and said, 'O Allah, make Abu Amer among those who will have the most on the Day of Resurrection.'"  

ابن حبّان:٧١٩١ – أَخْبَرَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْمُثَنَّى حَدَّثَنَا دَاوُدُ بْنُ عَمْرِو بْنِ زُهَيْرٍ الضَّبِّيُّ حَدَّثَنَا الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ نُعَيْمٍ عَنِ الضَّحَّاكِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَزْرَبِ الْأَشْعَرِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي مُوسَى الْأَشْعَرِيِّ

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَقَدَ يَوْمَ حُنَيْنٍ لِأَبِي عَامِرٍ الْأَشْعَرِيِّ عَلَى خَيْلِ الطَّلَبِ فَلَمَّا انْهَزَمَتْ هَوَازِنُ طَلَبَهَا حَتَّى أَدْرَكَ دُرَيْدَ بْنَ الصِّمَّةِ فَأَسْرَعَ بِهِ فَرَسُهُ فَقَتَلَ ابْنُ دُرَيْدٍ أَبَا عَامِرٍ قَالَ أَبُو مُوسَى فَشَدَدْتُ عَلَى ابْنِ دُرَيْدٍ فَقَتَلْتُهُ وَأَخَذْتُ اللِّوَاءَ وَانْصَرَفْتُ بِالنَّاسِ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَلَمَّا رَآنِي وَاللِّوَاءُ بِيَدِي قَالَ «أَبَا مُوسَى قُتِلَ أَبُو عَامِرٍ؟ » قُلْتُ نَعَمْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ فَرَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ يَدْعُو لَهُ يَقُولُ «اللَّهُمَّ أَبَا عَامِرٍ اجْعَلْهُ فِي الْأَكْثَرِينَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ»

[Machine] When Allah ﷻ defeated the people of Hawazin in the Battle of Hunayn, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ appointed Abu 'Amir al-Ash'ari as the leader of the cavalry seeking out the enemy. He set off and I was among those who joined him. He was riding his horse swiftly when Ibn Durayd ibn As-Simma caught up with him, killing Abu 'Amir and taking the flag. I then attacked Ibn Durayd and killed him, taking the flag back. Afterwards, I returned to the people. When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saw me carrying the flag, he asked, "O Abu Musa, was Abu 'Amir killed?" I replied, "Yes, O Messenger of Allah." Then, I saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ raising his hands and saying, "O Allah, Your slave Abu 'Amir, make him among those who will be raised high on the Day of Resurrection."
