[Machine] While Anas bin Malik and his brother Al-Bara bin Malik were at a fortress among the enemy forts, the enemy would throw chains with hooks that would attach to people and then pull them up. Some of these hooks attached to Anas bin Malik, and they lifted him up from the ground until he was close to them. Al-Bara bin Malik came and it was said to him, "Catch your brother while he fights the people." He rushed forward until he reached the wall and then grabbed onto the chain as it was being pulled. He continuously dragged them while his hands smoked, until he severed the rope. Then he looked at his hands and saw that the bones were visible, as all the flesh had been removed. Allah saved Anas bin Malik through that.  

بَيْنَمَا أَنَسُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ وَأَخُوهُ الْبَرَاءُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ عِنْدَ حِصْنٍ مِنْ حُصُونِ الْعَدُوِّ وَالْعَدُوُّ يُلْقُونَ كَلَالِيبَ فِي سَلَاسِلَ مُحْمَاةٍ فَتَعْلَقُ بِالْإِنْسَانِ فَيَرْفَعُونَهُ إِلَيْهِمْ فَعَلِقَ بَعْضُ تِلْكَ الْكَلَالِيبِ بِأَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ فَرَفَعُوهُ حَتَّى أَقَلُّوهُ مِن الْأَرْضَ فَأَتَى أَخُوهُ الْبَرَاءُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ فَقِيلَ أَدْرِكْ أَخَاكَ وَهُوَ يُقَاتِلُ في النَّاسِ فَأَقْبَلَ يَسْعَى حَتَّى نَزَا فِي الْجِدَارِ ثُمَّ قَبَضَ بِيَدِهِ عَلَى السِّلْسِلَةِ وَهِي تُدَارُ فَمَا بَرِحَ يَجُرُّهُمْ وَيَدَاهُ تُدَخِّنَانِ حَتَّى قَطَعَ الْحَبْلَ ثُمَّ نَظَرَ إِلَى يَدَيْهِ فَإِذَا عِظَامُهَا تَلُوحُ قَدْ ذَهَبَ مَا عَلَيْهَا مِنَ اللَّحْمِ وأَنْجَى الله ﷻ أَنَسَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ بِذَاكَ
