[Machine] Al-Harith ibn As-Simma asked me (the narrator) about Abdurrahman ibn Awf on the day of Uhud while we were in the trenches. I replied: "Yes, O Messenger of Allah, I saw him in the heat of the battle, with sweat pouring down his face, and he was being pursued by the disbelievers. So, I hastened towards him to protect him, but then I saw you, so I turned back towards you." The Prophet ﷺ said: "Indeed, the angels are fighting alongside him." Al-Harith narrates: "So, I returned to Abdurrahman and found him with seven wounded men around him. I said to him: 'Have you achieved victory and killed these men?' He replied: 'As for this one, I shot him with an arrow from Sharahbil, and as for this one, I killed him. But as for these, someone else killed them.' I said: 'Allah and His Messenger have spoken the truth.'"

" عَنِ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ الصِّمَّةِ قَالَ: سَأَلَنِى رَسُولُ الله ﷺ يَوْمَ أُحُدٍ وَهُوَ فِى الشِّعْبِ: هَلْ رَأَيْتَ عَبْدَ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنَ عَوْفٍ؟ قُلْتُ: نَعَمْ يَا رَسُولَ الله! رَأَيْتُهُ إِلَى حَدَّ الْجَبَلِ وَعَلَيْهِ عَسْكَرٌ مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ، فَهَوِيتُ إِلَيْهِ لأَمْنَعَهُ فَرَأَيْتُكَ فَعدَلْتُ إِلَيْكَ، فَقَالَ النَّبِىُّ ﷺ : أَمَا إِنَّ الْمَلاِئكَةَ تُقَاتِلُ مَعَهُ، فَرَجَعْتُ إِلَى عَبْد الرَّحْمَنِ فَأَجِدُهُ بَيْنَ نَفَرٍ سَبْعَةٍ صَرْعَى، فَقُلْتُ لَهُ: ظَفِرَتْ يَمِينُكَ! ! أَكُلَّ هَؤلَاءِ قَتَلْتَ؟ أَمَّا هَذَا - لأَرْطَاةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ سرجيل - وَهَذَا فَأنَا قَتَلْتُهُمَا، وَأَمَّا هَؤُلَاءِ فَقَتَلَهُمْ مَنْ لَمْ أَرَهُ، قُلْتُ: صَدَقَ الله وَرَسُولُهُ".
