السيوطي:٥-٢٦b –

"عن ابِن سيرينَ قَالَ: قيل لسعد بْنِ أَبِى وَقَّاصٍ: أَلَا تُقَاتِلُ؟ فَإِنَّكَ مِنْ أَهْلِ الشُّورَى، وأَنْت أَحَقُّ بِهَذا الأَمْرِ مِنْ غَيْرِكَ، فَقَالَ: لَا أُقَاتِلُ حَتَّى تَأتُونِى بِسَيْفٍ لَهُ عَيْنَانِ ولِسَانٌ وَشَفَتَانِ يَعْرِفُ المُؤْمِنَ مِنَ الكَافِرِ، فَقَد هَاجرتُ وأَنَا أعْرِفُ الجِهَادَ".

«لَا أُقَاتِلُ حَتَّى تَأْتُونِي بِسَيْفٍ لَهُ عَيْنَانِ وَلِسَانٌ وَشَفَتَانِ يَعْرِفُ الْمُؤْمِنَ مِنَ الْكَافِرِ فَقَدْ جَاهَدْتُ وَأَنَا أَعْرِفُ الْجِهَادَ»
