السيوطي:٦٥٠-٤٤b"عَن أَبِى بُرْدَةَ عَنْ أَبِى مَوسَى الأَشْعَرِى قَالَا

لَمَّا فَرَغَ رَسُولُ الله ﷺ مِنْ حُنَيْن بَعَثَ أَبَا عَامِر عَلَى جَيْشِ أَوْطَاسٍ فَلَقِىَ دريْد بن الصِّمَةِ فَقَتَل الله تَعَالَى دُرَيْدًا وَهَزَم أَصْحَابَهُ، قَالَ أَبُو مُوسَى، وَبَعَثنِى مَعَ أَبِى عَامِر فَرُمِىَ أَبُو عَامِر في رُكْبَتِهِ، رَمَاهُ رَجُلٌ مِنْ بَنِى جَشمْ بِسَهْمٍ فأثْبَتَهُ في رُكْبَتِهِ، فَانْتَهَيْتُ إِلَيْهِ، فَقُلتُ: يَا عَمِّ مَنْ رَمَاكَ؟ فَأَشَارَ أَبُو عَامِر إلَى هَذَا فَأَتَيْتهُ فَجَعْلَتُ أَقُولُ، أَلا تَسْتَحْيِىْ؟ أَلَسْت عَرَبِيًا؟ ألا تَثْبَت؟ فَالْتَقَيْتُ أَنَا وَهَوَ فَاخْتَلَقْنَا ضَرْبَتَيْن، فَضَرْبتُه بِالسَّيْفِ فَقَتَلتُه، ثُمَّ رَجَعْتُ إِلَى أَبِى عَامِر، فَقُلتُ، قَدْ قَتَلَ الله صَاحِبَك، قَالَ: فانْتَزِعْ هَذَا السَّهْمَ، فَنَزعته، فَقَالَ يَا بنَ أَخِى انْطَلِق إِلَى رَسُولِ الله ﷺ فَأَقْرِئْهُ مِنِّى السَّلَامَ وَقُلْ لَهُ: يَقُولُ لَكَ اسْتَغْفِرْ لِى، وَاسْتَخْلَفَنِى أَبُو عَامِر عَلَى النَّاسِ، فَمَكَثَ يَسِيرًا ثُمَّ إِنَّهُ مَاتَ، فَلَمَّا رَجَعْتُ إِلَى النَّبِىِّ ﷺ دَخَلْتُ عَلَيْهِ وَهُوَ في بَيْتٍ عَلَى سَرِيرٍ مُرَمَّلٍ وَعَلَيْهِ فِرَاش وَقَد أَثَّرَ رِمَالُ السَّرِيرِ بِظَهْرِ رَسُولِ الله ﷺ وَجَسَدِهِ، فَأَخبَرْتُه بِخَبَرِنَا وَخَبَر أَبِى عَامِرٍ، فَقُلْتُ يَقُولُ لَكَ، اسْتَغْفِرْ لِى، فَدَعَا رَسُولُ الله ﷺ بِمَاءٍ فَتَوَضَّأ، ثُمَّ رَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ فَقَالَ: اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِر لِعَبِدكَ أَبِى عَامِر حَتَّى رَأَيْت بَيَاض إِبطيْهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ: اللَّهُمَّ اجْعَل لَهُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامِة نُورًا كَبَيرا، فَقُلْتُ: ولِى يَا رَسُولَ الله فاسْتَغْفِرْ، فَقَالَ النَّبِىُّ ﷺ اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِعَبْدِكَ ابن قَيْس ذَنْبَه، وَأَدْخِلْهُ يَوْم الْقِيَامَةِ مدْخَلًا كَرِيمًا، قَالَ أَبو بُرْدَةَ، إِحْدَاهُمَا لأَبى عَامِر والأُخْرَى لأَبِى مُوسَى

When the Prophet ﷺ had finished from the battle of Hunain, he sent Abu Amir at the head of an army to Autas He (i.e. Abu Amir) met Duraid bin As Summa and Duraid was killed and Allah defeated his companions. The Prophet ﷺ sent me with Abu 'Amir. Abu Amir was shot at his knee with an arrow which a man from Jushm had shot and fixed into his knee. I went to him and said, "O Uncle! Who shot you?" He pointed me out (his killer) saying, "That is my killer who shot me (with an arrow)." So I headed towards him and overtook him, and when he saw me, he fled, and I followed him and started saying to him, "Won't you be ashamed? Won't you stop?" So that person stopped, and we exchanged two hits with the swords and I killed him. Then I said to Abu 'Amir. "Allah has killed your killer." He said, "Take out this arrow" So I removed it, and water oozed out of the wound. He then said, "O son of my brother! Convey my compliments to the Prophet ﷺ and request him to ask Allah's Forgiveness for me." Abu Amir made me his successor in commanding the people (i.e. troops). He survived for a short while and then died. (Later) I returned and entered upon the Prophet ﷺ at his house, and found him lying in a bed made of stalks of date-palm leaves knitted with ropes, and on it there was bedding. The strings of the bed had their traces over his back and sides. Then I told the Prophet ﷺ about our and Abu Amir's news and how he had said "Tell him to ask for Allah's Forgiveness for me." The Prophet ﷺ asked for water, performed ablution and then raised hands, saying, "O Allah's Forgive ʿUbaid, Abu Amir." At that time I saw the whiteness of the Prophet's armpits. The Prophet ﷺ then said, "O Allah, make him (i.e. Abu Amir) on the Day of Resurrection, superior to many of Your human creatures." I said, "Will you ask Allah's Forgiveness for me?" (On that) the Prophet ﷺ said, "O Allah, forgive the sins of ʿAbdullah bin Qais and admit him to a nice entrance (i.e. paradise) on the Day of Resurrection." Abu Burda said, "One of the prayers was for Abu 'Amir and the other was for Abu Musa (i.e. ʿAbdullah bin Qais).

He (the Holy Prophet) sent me along with Abu 'Amir and Abu 'Amir received a wound in his knee from the arrow, (shot by) a person of Bani Jusham. It stuck in his knee. I went to him and said: Uncle, who shot an arrow upon you? Abu 'Amir pointed out to Abu Musa and said: Verily that one who shot an arrow upon me in fact killed me. Abu Musa said: I followed him with the determination to kill him and overtook him and when he saw me he turned upon his heels. I followed him and I said to him: Don't you feel ashamed (that you run), aren't you an Arab? Why don't you stop? He stopped and I had an encounter with him and we exchanged the strokes of (swords). I struck him with the sword and killed him. Then I came back to Abu Amir and said: Verily Allah has killed the one who killed you. And he said: Now draw out this arrow. I drew out the arrow and there came out from that (wound) water. Abu 'Amir said: My nephew, go to Messenger of Allah ﷺ and convey my greetings to him and tell him that Abu Amir begs you to ask forgiveness for him. And Abu Amir appointed me as the chief of the people and he died after a short time. When I came to Allah's Apostle ﷺ I visited him and he had been lying on the cot woven by strings and there was (no) bed over it and so there had been marks of the strings on the back of Messenger of Allah ﷺ and on his sides. I narrated to him what had happened to us and narrated to him about Abu Amir and said to him that he had made a request to the effect that forgiveness should be sought for him (from Allah). Thereupon Messenger of Allah (may peace be. upon him) called for water and performed ablution with it. He then lifted his hands and said. O Allah, grant pardon to Thy servant Abu Amir. (The Prophet had raised his hands so high for supplication) that I saw the whiteness of his armpits. He again said: O Allah, grant him distinction amongst the majority of Thine created beings or from amongst the people. I said: Messenger of Allah, ask forgiveness for me too. Thereupon Allah's Apostle ﷺ said: Allah, forgive the sins of Abdullah b. Qais (Abu Musa Ash'ari) and admit him to an elevated place on the Day of Resurrection. Abu Burda said: One prayer is for abu 'Amir and the other is tor Abu Musa.

الكبرى للنسائي:٨٧٣٠أَخْبَرَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الْكُوفِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ عَنْ بُرَيْدِ وَهُوَ ابْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ عَنْ أَبِي بُرْدَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ

لَمَّا جَاءَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ مِنْ حُنَيْنٍ بَعَثَ أَبَا عَامِرٍ عَلَى جَيْشٍ إِلَى أَوْطَاسٍ فَلَقِيَ ابْنَ الصِّمَّةِ فَقُتِلَ وَهَزَمَ اللهُ أَصْحَابَهُ قَالَ أَبُو مُوسَى فَرُمِيَ أَبُو عَامِرٍ فِي رُكْبَتِهِ رَمَاهُ رَجُلٌ مِنْ بَنِي جُشَمٍ بِسَهْمٍ فَأَثْبَتَهُ فِي رُكْبَتِهِ فَانْتَهَيْتُ إِلَيْهِ فَقُلْتُ يَا عَمُّ «مَنْ رَمَاكَ؟ فَأَشَارَ أَبُو عَامِرٍ إِلَى أَبِي مُوسَى» فَقَالَ «إِنَّ ذَاكَ قَاتِلِي تَرَاهُ ذَلِكَ الَّذِي رَمَانِي» قَالَ أَبُو مُوسَى «فَقَصَدْتُ إِلَيْهِ فَاعْتَمَدْتُهُ فَلَحِقْتُهُ فَلَمَّا رَآنِي وَلَّى عَنَى ذَاهِبًا فَاتَّبَعْتُهُ» وَجَعَلْتُ أَقُولُ لَهُ «أَلَا تَسْتَحْيِ؟ أَلَسْتَ عَرَبِيًّا؟ أَلَا تَثْبُتُ؟ فَكَرَّ فَالْتَقَيْتُ أَنَا وَهُوَ فَاخْتَلَفْنَا ضَرْبَتَيْنِ فَضَرَبْتُهُ بِالسَّيْفِ فَقَتَلْتُهُ ثُمَّ رَجَعْتُ إِلَى أَبِي عَامِرٍ» فَقُلْتُ قَدْ قَتَلَ اللهُ صَاحِبَكَ قَالَ «فَانْزِعْ هَذَا السَّهْمَ فَنَزَعْتُهُ فَنَزَا مِنْهُ الْمَاءُ» فَقَالَ يَا ابْنَ أَخِي انْطَلِقْ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَأَقْرِئْهُ مِنِّي السَّلَامَ وَقُلْ لَهُ إِنَّهُ يَقُولَ لَكَ «اسْتَغْفِرْ لِي» قَالَ وَاسْتَخْلَفَنِي أَبُو عَامِرٍ عَلَى النَّاسِ فَمَكَثَ يَسِيرًا ثُمَّ إِنَّهُ مَاتَ فَلَمَّا رَجَعْتُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ دَخَلْتُ عَلَيْهِ وَهُوَ فِي بَيْتٍ عَلَى سَرِيرٍ مُرَمَّلٍ وَعَلَيْهِ فِرَاشٌ وَقَدْ أَثَّرَ رِمَالُ السَّرِيرِ بِظَهْرِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَجَنْبَيْهِ فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ بِخَبَرِنَا وَخَبَرِ أَبِي عَامِرٍ فَقُلْتُ قَالَ لِي «قُلْ لَهُ اسْتَغْفِرْ لِي فَدَعَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بِمَاءٍ فَتَوَضَّأَ ثُمَّ رَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ» فَقَالَ اللهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِعُبْيدٍ أَبِي عَامِرٍ حَتَّى رَأَيْتُ بَيَاضَ إِبْطَيْهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ «اللهُمَّ اجْعَلْهُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ فَوْقَ كَثِيرٍ مِنْ خَلْقِكَ أَوْ مِنَ النَّاسِ» فَقُلْتُ وَلِي يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ فَاسْتَغْفِرْ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «اللهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِعَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ قَيْسٍ ذَنْبَهُ وَأَدْخِلْهُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ مُدْخَلًا كَرِيمًا» قَالَ أَبُو بُرْدَةَ إِحْدَاهُمَا لِأَبِي عَامِرٍ وَالْأُخْرَى لِأَبِي مُوسَى
