[Machine] He, ﷺ , was with the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, on the day of Badr, with a hundred riders. One of them was Mikdad bin Aswad, and the other was Mus'ab bin Umair and Sahal bin Hunayf. He said, "His companions were watching on the clear path." So, the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , and Marthad bin Abi Marthad al-Ghanawi, the ally of Hamza bin Abdul Muttalib, were "watching a clear path."
أَنَّهُ كَانَ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ يَوْمَ بَدْرٍ مِائَةُ نَاضِحٍ ونَوَاضِحُ وَكَانَ مَعَهُ فُرْسَانِ يَرْكَبُ أَحَدَهُمَا الْمِقْدَادُ بْنُ الْأَسْوَدِ ويَتَرَوَّحُ الْآخَرَ مُصْعَبُ بْنُ عُمَيْرٍ وَسَهْلُ بْنُ حُنَيْفٍ قَالَ وَكَانَ أَصْحَابُهُ يَعْتَقِبُونَ فِي الطَّرِيقِ النَّوَاضِحَ فَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ ومَرْثَدُ بْنُ أَبِي مَرْثَدٍ الْغَنَوِيُّ حَلِيفُ حَمْزَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ «يَعْتَقِبُونَ نَاضِحًا»
