حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ عَنْ ثَابِتٍ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ شَاوَرَ حَيْثُ بَلَغَهُ إِقْبَالُ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ، قَالَ: فَتَكَلَّمَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ فَأَعْرَضَ عَنْهُ، ثُمَّ تَكَلَّمَ عُمَرُ فَأَعْرَضَ عَنْهُ، فَقَالَ سَعْدُ بْنُ عُبَادَةَ: إِيَّانَا يُرِيدُ رَسُولُ اللهِ [ ﷺ ]، وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ لَوْ أَمَرْتَنَا أَنْ نُخِيضَهَا الْبِحَارَ لَأَخَضْنَاهَا، وَلَوْ أَمَرْتَنَا أَنْ نَضْرِبَ أَكْبَادَهَا إِلَى بَرْكِ الْغِمَادِ لَفَعَلْنَا، قَالَ عَفَّانُ: قَالَ سُلَيْمٌ عَنِ ابْنِ عَوْنٍ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ سَعِيدٍ الْغِمَادِ؛ فَنَدَبَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ النَّاسَ؛ فَانْطَلَقُوا حَتَّى نَزَلُوا بَدْرًا وَوَرَدَتْ عَلَيْهِمْ رَوَايَا قُرَيْشٍ، وَفِيهِمْ غُلَامٌ أَسْوَدُ لِبَنِي الْحَجَّاجِ فَأَخَذُوهُ، وَكَانَ أَصْحَابُ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ يَسْأَلُونَهُ عَنْ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ وَأَصْحَابِهِ، فَيَقُولُ: مَا لِي عِلْمٌ بِأَبِي سُفْيَانَ، وَلَكِنْ هَذَا أَبُو جَهْلِ بْنُ هِشَامٍ، وَعُتْبَةُ بْنُ رَبِيعَةَ، وَشَيْبَةُ، وَأُمَيَّةُ بْنُ خَلَفٍ، فَإِذَا قَالَ ذَاكَ ضَرَبُوهُ، فَإِذَا ضَرَبُوهُ قَالَ: نَعَمْ، أَنَا أُخْبِرُكُمْ، هَذَا أَبُو سُفْيَانَ، فَإِذَا تَرَكُوهُ فَسَأَلُوهُ قَالَ: مَا لِي بِأَبِي سُفْيَانَ عِلْمٌ، وَلَكِنْ هَذَا أَبُو جَهْلٍ، وَعُتْبَةُ، وَشَيْبَةُ، وَأُمَيَّةُ فِي النَّاسِ. قَالَ: فَإِذَا قَالَ هَذَا أَيْضًا ضَرَبُوهُ، وَرَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ قَائِمٌ يُصَلِّي، فَلَمَّا رَأَى ذَلِكَ انْصَرَفَ، فَقَالَ: وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ إِنَّكُمْ لَتَضْرِبُونَهُ إِذَا صَدَقَكُمْ، وَتَتْرُكُونَهُ إِذَا كَذَبَكُمْ. قَالَ: وَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: هَذَا مَصْرَعُ فُلَانٍ غَدًا، يَضَعُ يَدَهُ عَلَى الْأَرْضِ هَاهُنَا وَهَاهُنَا، فَمَا أَمَاطَ أَحَدُهُمْ عَنْ مَوْضِعِ يَدِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ

Abu Bakr spoke (expressing his own views), but he (the Holy Prophet) did not pay heed to him. Then spoke 'Umar (expressing his views), but he (the Holy Prophet) did not pay heed to him (too). Then Sa'd b. 'Ubada stood up and said: Messenger of Allah, you want us (to speak). By God in Whose control is my life, if you order us to plunge our horses into the sea, we would do so. If you order us to goad our horses to the most distant place like Bark al-Ghimad, we would do so. The narrator said: Now the Messenger of Allah ﷺ called upon the people (for the encounter). So they set out and encamped at Badr. (Soon) the water-carriers of the Quraish arrived. Among them was a black slave belonging to Banu al-Hajjaj. The Companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ caught him and interrogated him about Abu Sufyan and his companions. He said: I know nothing about Abu Sufyan, but Abu Jahl, Utba, Shaiba and Umayya b. Khalaf are there. When he said this, they beat him. Then he said: All right, I will tell you about Abu Sufyan. They would stop beating him and then ask him (again) about Abu Sufyan. He would again say', I know nothing about Abu Sufyan, but Abu Jahl. 'Utba, Shaiba and Umayya b. Khalaf are there. When he said this, they beat him likewise. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was standing in prayer. When he saw this he finished his prayer and said: By Allah in Whose control is my life, you beat him when he is telling you the truth, and you let him go when he tells you a lie. The narrator said: Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: This is the place where so and so would be killed. He placed his hand on the earth (saying) here and here; (and) none of them fell away from the place which the Messenger of Allah ﷺ had indicated by placing his hand on the earth.
