The Prophet ﷺ said: Our Lord Most High is pleased with a man who fights in the path of Allah, the Exalted; then his companions fled away (i.e. retreated). But he knew that it was a sin (to flee away from the battlefield), so he returned, and his blood was shed. Thereupon Allah, the Exalted, says to His angels: Look at My servant; he returned seeking what I have for him (i.e. the reward), and fearing (the punishment) I have, until his blood was shed.

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَجِبَ رَبُّنَا مِنْ رَجُلٍ غَزَا فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ فَانْهَزَمَ يَعْنِي أَصْحَابَهُ فَعَلِمَ مَا عَلَيْهِ فَرَجَعَ حَتَّى أُهْرِيقَ دَمُهُ فَيَقُولُ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى لِمَلاَئِكَتِهِ انْظُرُوا إِلَى عَبْدِي رَجَعَ رَغْبَةً فِيمَا عِنْدِي وَشَفَقَةً مِمَّا عِنْدِي حَتَّى أُهَرِيقَ دَمُهُ

[Machine] "From the Prophet ﷺ , he said: "Our Lord, may He be glorified and exalted, wonders at two men; a man who leaves his bed and blanket and goes from among his family and life to his prayer, saying: 'Our Lord, O my angels, look at my servant who has left his bed and blanket and gone from among his family and life to his prayer, out of desire for what is with Me and out of fear of what is with Me.' And a man who fights in the cause of Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, and is defeated, but knows that he has to flee and has no chance of returning, so he returns until he is killed, out of desire for what is with Me and out of fear of what is with Me." And Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, says to His angels: 'Look at My servant, who has returned out of desire for what is with Me and out of fear of what is with Me, until his blood is shed.'"

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ عَجِبَ رَبُّنَا ﷻ مِنْ رَجُلَيْنِ رَجُلٍ ثَارَ عَنْ وِطَائِهِ وَلِحَافِهِ مِنْ بَيْنِ أَهْلِهِ وَحَيِّهِ إِلَى صَلَاتِهِ فَيَقُولُ رَبُّنَا أَيَا مَلَائِكَتِي انْظُرُوا إِلَى عَبْدِي ثَارَ مِنْ فِرَاشِهِوَوِطَائِهِ وَمِنْ بَيْنِ حَيِّهِ وَأَهْلِهِ إِلَى صَلَاتِهِ رَغْبَةً فِيمَا عِنْدِي وَشَفَقَةً مِمَّا عِنْدِي وَرَجُلٍ غَزَا فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ ﷻ فَانْهَزَمُوا فَعَلِمَ مَا عَلَيْهِ مِنَ الْفِرَارِ وَمَا لَهُ فِي الرُّجُوعِ فَرَجَعَ حَتَّى أُهْرِيقَ دَمُهُ رَغْبَةً فِيمَا عِنْدِي وَشَفَقَةً مِمَّا عِنْدِي فَيَقُولُ اللهُ ﷻ لِمَلَائِكَتِهِ انْظُرُوا إِلَى عَبْدِي رَجَعَ رَغْبَةً فِيمَا عِنْدِي وَرَهْبَةً مِمَّا عِنْدِي حَتَّى أُهَرِيقَ دَمُهُ

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Our Lord marvels at two men: a man who leaves his bed and his blankets, desiring to pray, and Allah says: 'Look at my servant who has left his comfortable bed and blankets out of his love for Me and his family, desiring what I have and seeking My mercy.' And a man who fights in the cause of Allah, and the people are defeated, and he knows the consequences of defeat and what awaits him if he retreats, yet he returns until his blood is spilled. Then Allah says to His angels: 'Look at My servant who returns with hope in what I have and seeking My mercy, even until his blood is spilled.'"

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «عَجِبَ رَبُّنَا مِنْ رَجُلَيْنِ رَجُلٍ ثَارَ مِنْ وِطَائِهِ وَلِحَافِهِ مِنْ بَيْنِ حِبِّهِ وَأَهْلِهِ إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ فَيَقُولُ اللَّهُ جَلَّ وَعَلَا انْظُرُوا إِلَى عَبْدِي ثَارَ مِنْ فِرَاشِهِ وَوِطَائِهِ مِنْ بَيْنَ حِبِّهِ وَأَهْلِهِ إِلَى صَلَاتِهِ رَغْبَةً فِيمَا عِنْدِي وَشَفَقَةً مِمَّا عِنْدِي وَرَجُلٍ غَزَا فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ فَانْهَزَمَ النَّاسُ وَعَلِمَ مَا عَلَيْهِ فِي الِانْهِزَامِ وَمَا لَهُ فِي الرُّجُوعِ فَرَجَعَ حَتَّى أُهْرِيقَ دَمُهُ فَيَقُولُ اللَّهُ لِمَلَائِكَتِهِ انْظُرُوا إِلَى عَبْدِي رَجَعَ رَجَاءً فِيمَا عِنْدِي وَشَفَقَةً مِمَّا عِنْدِي حَتَّى أُهْرِيقَ دَمُهُ»

[Machine] "The Prophet ﷺ said: Our Lord marvels at two men; a man who becomes angry for the sake of his clothing and his bed, separating him from his loved ones and family to perform his prayers. Allah says to His angels: Look at My servant, he becomes angry and separates himself from his loved ones and family to perform his prayers, seeking what is with Me and fearing what is with Me. And a man who fights in the cause of Allah and is defeated, realizing what he faces in defeat and what he has in retreat, yet he returns until his blood is spilled. Allah says: Look at My servant, he returns seeking what is with Me and fearing what is with Me, until his blood is spilled."

أَنَّ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ عَجِبَ رَبُّنَا مِنْ رَجُلَيْنِ؛ رَجُلٌ ثَارَ عَنْ وِطَائِهِ وَلِحَافِهِ مِنْ بَيْنِ حِبِّهِ وَأَهْلِهِ إِلَى صَلَاتِهِ فَيَقُولُ اللهُ ﷻ لِمَلَائِكَتِهِ انْظُرُوا إِلَى عَبْدِي ثَارَ مِنْ وِطَائِهِ وَلِحَافِهِ مِنْ حِبِّهِ وَأَهْلِهِ إِلَى صَلَاتِهِ رَغْبَةً فِيمَا عِنْدِي وَشَفَقَةً مِمَّا عِنْدِي وَرَجُلٌ غَزَا فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ فَانْهَزَمَ فَعَلِمَ مَا عَلَيْهِ فِي الِانْهِزَامِ وَمَا لَهُ فِي الرُّجُوعِ فَرَجَعَ حَتَّى أُهَرِيقَ دَمُهُ فَيَقُولُ اللهُ تَعَالَى لِمَلَائِكَتِهِ انْظُرُوا إِلَى عَبْدِي رَجَعَ رَغْبَةً فِيمَا عِنْدِي وَشَفَقَةً مِمَّا عِنْدِي حَتَّى أُهَرِيقَ دَمُهُ

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Our Lord wonders at two men: a man who leaves his house and everything he loves and cares about, just to go to prayer, seeking what is with Me, and fearing what is with Me; and a man who fights in the cause of Allah, but is defeated and knows the consequences of defeat and what awaits him if he retreats, yet he returns until his blood is shed. So Allah says to His angels: 'Look at My servant who has returned, seeking what is with Me and fearing what is with Me, until his blood is spilled.' And it is narrated in its meaning from Abu Darda as a hadith."
