حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ، حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي خَالِدٍ، عَنْ قَيْسِ بْنِ أَبِي حَازِمٍ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ سَعْدًا، يَقُولُ:
" إِنِّي لَأَوَّلُ رَجُلٍ مِنَ الْعَرَبِ رَمَى بِسَهْمٍ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ، وَلَقَدْ رَأَيْتُنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَمَا لَنَا طَعَامٌ إِلَّا السَّمُرُ وَوَرَقُ الْحُبْلَةِ، حَتَّى إِنْ كَانَ أَحَدُنَا لَيَضَعُ كَمَا تَضَعُ الْعَنْزُ، مَا لَهُ خِلْطٌ

✧ I was the first Arab man to shoot an arrow in the path of Allah. We saw ourselves with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ when we had no food except samur leaves and the leaves of the hubla plant, until one of us would defecate like a goat defecates, with no mixture.
