وَحَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رَافِعٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ، أَخْبَرَنِي مُوسَى بْنُ عُقْبَةَ عَنْ أَبِي النَّضْرِ

عَنْ كِتَابِ، رَجُلٍ مِنْ أَسْلَمَ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُقَالُ لَهُ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ أَبِي أَوْفَى فَكَتَبَ إِلَى عُمَرَ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ حِينَ سَارَ إِلَى الْحَرُورِيَّةِ يُخْبِرُهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ فِي بَعْضِ أَيَّامِهِ الَّتِي لَقِيَ فِيهَا الْعَدُوَّ يَنْتَظِرُ حَتَّى إِذَا مَالَتِ الشَّمْسُ قَامَ فِيهِمْ فَقَالَ: «يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ لَا تَتَمَنَّوْا لِقَاءَ الْعَدُوِّ وَاسْأَلُوا اللَّهَ الْعَافِيَةَ فَإِذَا لَقِيتُمُوهُمْ فَاصْبِرُوا وَاعْلَمُوا أَنَّ الْجَنَّةَ تَحْتَ ظِلَالِ السُّيُوفِ».

ثُمَّ قَامَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَقَالَ: «اللَّهُمَّ مُنْزِلَ الْكِتَابِ وَمُجْرِيَ السَّحَابِ وَهَازِمَ الأَحْزَابِ اهْزِمْهُمْ وَانْصُرْنَا عَلَيْهِمْ»

He learnt from a letter sent by a man from the Aslam tribe, who was a Companion of the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) and whose name was Abdullah ibn Abu Aufa, to Umar ibn Ubaidullah when the latter marched upon Haruriyya (Khawarij) informing him that the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) in one of those days when lie was confronting the enemy waited until the sun had declined.

Then he stood up (to address the people) and said: O ye men, do not wish for an encounter with the enemy. Pray to Allah to grant you security; (but) when you (have to) encounter them exercise patience, and you should know that Paradise is under the shadows of the swords. Then the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) stood up (again) and said: O Allah.

Revealer of the Book, Disperser of the clouds, Defeater of the hordes, put our enemy to rout and help us against them.

ইসহাক ইবনু ইবরাহীম ও মুহাম্মাদ ইবনু রাফি' (রহঃ) ..... যুরারাহ ইবনু আওফা (রহঃ) থেকে বর্ণিত। সা'দ ইবনু হিশাম (রহঃ) ছিলেন তার প্রতিবেশী। তিনি যুরারাহকে স্বীয় স্ত্রীকে তালাক দেয়ার কথা জানালেন। এতটুকু বর্ণনা করার পর তিনি সাঈদ বর্ণিত হাদীসের অনুরূপ অর্থবোধক হাদীস বর্ণনা করলেন যাতে এ কথাও বর্ণিত হয়েছে যে, আয়িশাহ (রাযিঃ) জিজ্ঞেস করলেনঃ কোন হিশাম এর কথা বলছ?

তখন হাকীম ইবনু আফলাহ বললেনঃ ‘আমিরের পুত্র হিশামের কথা বলছি। এ কথা শুনে 'আয়িশাহ বলে উঠলেন- 'আমির কত ভাল লোক ছিলেন। তিনি রসূলুল্লাহ সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম এর সাথে উহুদ যুদ্ধে শারীক হয়ে শাহাদাত বরণ করেছেন।

এ হাদীসে এ কথাও বর্ণিত হয়েছে যে, হাকীম ইবনু আফলাহ বললেনঃ যদি আমার জানা থাকত যে, আপনি আয়িশাহ (রাযিঃ) এর কাছে যান না তাহলে আমি আপনাকে তার সম্পর্কে বলতাম না। (ইসলামী ফাউন্ডেশন ১৬১২, ইসলামীক সেন্টার)

معمر نے قتادہ سے اور انھوں نے زراہ بن اوفیٰ سے روایت کی کہ سعد بن ہشام ان کے پڑوسی تھے ، انھوں نے ان کو بتایا کہ انھوں نے اپنی بیوی کو طلاق دے دی ۔ ۔ آگے سعید ( بن ابی عروبہ ) کے ہم معنیٰ حدیث بیان کی ۔

اس میں ہے ، ( حضرت عائشہ رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہا نے ) کہا : کون ہشام؟عرض کی : عامر رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہ کے بیٹے ۔ انھوں نے کہا : وہ اچھے انسان تھے غزوہ احد میں رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم کے ساتھ ( لڑتےہوئے ) تھے شہید ہوئے ، نیز اس ( روایت ) میں ہے کہ ( سعدکے بجائے ) حکیم بن افلح نے کہا : اگر میں جانتا کہ آپ ان کے پاس حاضر نہیں ہوتے تو میں آپ کو ان کی حدیث نہ بتاتا ۔

{….} Bize, İshâk b. İbrahim ile Muhammed b. Râfi', ikisi birden Abdürrazâk'dan rivayet ettiler. (Demişki): Bize, Ma'mer, Katâde'den, o da, Zürâratü'bnü Evfâ'dan naklen haber verdiki, Sa'dü'bnü Hişâm'ın bir komşusu varmış, Zürâraya o haber vermiş ki, Sad karısını boşamış. Râvî hadisi Sa'd'in hadîsi ma'nasında rivayet etmiş. Bu rivâyetde: «Âişe: Hangi Hişâm?

dedi; Hakîm: Âmir'in oğlu; cevâbını verdi. Âişe: O, ne iyi adamdı, Uhud harbinde Resûlullah (Sallallahu Aleyhi ve Sellem) ile birlikde vurulmuşdu; dedi.» ibaresi ile: «Hakîmu'bnü Eflâh: Beri bak! Ben, senin Âişe'nin yanına girmezdiğİni bilseydim, onun hadîsini sana söylemezdim; dedi.» ifâdesi vardır

What it means

The Companion ‘Abdullāh ibn Abu Awfa (may Allah be pleased with him) informs in this Hadīth that when the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessing be upon him) met the enemy one day, he waited and did not begin the fighting except after the sun had declined, after which he stood up among them to deliver a speech, something which is usually done after prayer.

He prohibited them from wishing to meet the enemy, given the self-conceit involved in this desire, and instructed them to ask Allah, the Almighty, for safety. Thereafter, he said: “And if you meet them, have patience.” In other words, if Allah wills this to happen and you are tested with meeting the enemy, show patience and do not panic; and know that you will get one of two good things: either Allah will help you against your enemy and make you victorious over them, and thus you will win both the victory in the worldly life and the reward in the Hereafter;

or you will be defeated after you have tried your best in Jihad, and you will thus have the reward in the Hereafter. “And know that Paradise lies under the shadows of swords”, meaning: Jihad leads to Paradise. Then, the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) invoked his Lord by His Shariah and perfect power to grant the Muslims victory over their enemies. And success can only be attained through Allah, the Almighty.
