that Abu Talhah said: "We were overcome, and we were in our positions on the Day of Uhud," and he narrated that he was among those who were overcome with slumber on that day. He said: "My sword kept falling from my hand and I would pick it up and it would fall from my hand and I would pick it up (again). The other party was that of the hypocrites, they had no concern but themselves, the most cowardly of people, the most frightened, fleeing from the truth."  

Abū ʿĪsá said that this Ḥadīth is Ḥasan-Ṣaḥīḥ.
الترمذي:٣٠٠٨حَدَّثَنَا يُوسُفُ بْنُ حَمَّادٍ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الأَعْلَى بْنُ عَبْدِ الأَعْلَى عَنْ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنْ أَنَسٍ أَنَّ أَبَا طَلْحَةَ قَالَ

غُشِينَا وَنَحْنُ فِي مَصَافِّنَا يَوْمَ أُحُدٍ حَدَّثَ أَنَّهُ كَانَ فِيمَنْ غَشِيَهُ النُّعَاسُ يَوْمَئِذٍ قَالَ فَجَعَلَ سَيْفِي يَسْقُطُ مِنْ يَدِي وَآخُذُهُ وَيَسْقُطُ مِنْ يَدِي وَآخُذُهُ وَالطَّائِفَةُ الأُخْرَى الْمُنَافِقُونَ لَيْسَ لَهُمْ هَمٌّ إِلاَّ أَنْفُسُهُمْ أَجْبَنُ قَوْمٍ وَأَرْعَبُهُ وَأَخْذَلُهُ لِلْحَقِّ  

قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ

ذِكْرُ أَبِي طَلْحَةَ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ ؓ

ibnhibban:7180Muḥammad

[Machine] "We were overcome by drowsiness while we were in our ranks on the day of Badr," said Abu Talha. "So, I was among those who were overcome by drowsiness that day. My sword kept falling from my hand, and every time it fell, I would pick it up again. As for the other group, the hypocrites, they had no concern except for themselves. They were the most cowardly people and the most humiliated in terms of truth. They thought wrongly about Allah, like the beliefs of the ignorant people of the pre-Islamic era. They were people of doubt and uncertainty in matters related to Allah."  

ابن حبّان:٧١٨٠أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ الثَّقَفِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الْمُنَادِي حَدَّثَنَا يُونُسُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ حَدَّثَنَا شَيْبَانُ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ حَدَّثَنَا أَنَسُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ أَنَّ أَبَا طَلْحَةَ قَالَ

«غَشِيَنَا النُّعَاسُ وَنَحْنُ فِي مَصَافِّنَا يَوْمَ بَدْرٍ» قَالَ أَبُو طَلْحَةَ «فَكُنْتُ فِيمَنْ غَشِيَهُ النُّعَاسُ يَوْمَئِذٍ فَجَعَلَ سَيْفِي يَسْقُطُ مِنْ يَدِي وَآخُذُهُ وَيَسْقُطُ وَآخُذُهُ وَالطَّائِفَةُ الْأُخْرَى الْمُنَافِقُونَ لَيْسَ لَهُمْ هَمٌّ إِلَّا أَنْفُسُهُمْ أَجْبَنُ قَوْمٍ وَأَذَلُّهُ لِلْحَقِّ يَظُنُّونَ بِاللَّهِ غَيْرَ الْحَقِّ ظَنَّ الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ أَهْلُ شَكٍّ وَرِيبَةٍ فِي أَمْرِ اللَّهِ»
