حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي عَنِ ابْنِ إِسْحَاقَ قَالَ فَحَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ سَهْلِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ سَهْلٍ أَخُو بَنِي حَارِثَةَ عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ قَالَ

خَرَجَ مَرْحَبٌ الْيَهُودِيُّ مِنْ حِصْنِهِمْ قَدْ جَمَعَ سِلَاحَهُ يَرْتَجِزُ وَيَقُولُ: قَدْ عَلِمَتْ خَيْبَرُ أَنِّي مَرْحَبُ شَاكِي السِّلَاحِ بَطَلٌ مُجَرَّبُ أَطْعَنُ أَحْيَانًا وَحِينًا أَضْرِبُ إِذَا اللُّيُوثُ أَقْبَلَتْ تَلَهَّبُ [كَانَ حِمَامِيَ الْحِمَى] لَا يُقْرَبُ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ: مَنْ مُبَارِزٌ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: مَنْ لِهَذَا؟ فَقَالَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مَسْلَمَةَ أَنَا لَهُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، وَأَنَا وَاللهِ الْمَوْتُورُ الثَّائِرُ؛ قَتَلُوا أَخِي بِالْأَمْسِ قَالَ: فَقُمْ إِلَيْهِ، اللَّهُمَّ أَعِنْهُ عَلَيْهِ فَلَمَّا دَنَا أَحَدُهُمَا مِنْ صَاحِبِهِ دَخَلَتْ بَيْنَهُمَا شَجَرَةٌ عُمْرِيَّةٌ مِنْ شَجَرِ الْعُشَرِ فَجَعَلَ أَحَدُهُمَا يَلُوذُ بِهَا مِنْ صَاحِبِهِ، كُلَّمَا لَاذَ بِهَا مِنْهُ اقْتَطَعَ بِسَيْفِهِ مَا دُونَهُ حَتَّى بَرَزَ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْهُمَا لِصَاحِبِهِ وَصَارَتْ بَيْنَهُمَا كَالرَّجُلِ الْقَائِمِ مَا فِيهَا فَنَنٌ، ثُمَّ حَمَلَ مَرْحَبٌ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ فَضَرَبَهُ فَاتَّقَاهَا بِالدَّرَقَةِ فَوَقَعَ سَيْفُهُ فِيهَا فَعَضَّتْ بِهِ فَأَمْسَكَتْهُ وَضَرَبَهُ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مَسْلَمَةَ حَتَّى قَتَلَهُ.

✧ Marhab the Jew came out of their fortress having gathered his weapons, reciting war poetry and saying: 'Khaybar knows that I am Marhab, armed with sharp weapons, a tried hero. I thrust sometimes, and at times I strike, when lions advance blazing. My protected death was not to be approached.' And he was saying, 'Who will duel?' The Messenger of God ﷺ said, 'Who will face this one?' Muhammad b. Maslama said, 'I will face him, O Messenger of God. By God, I am the bereaved avenger; they killed my brother yesterday.' He said, 'Arise against him. O God, help him against him.' When one of them drew near to the other, an 'umri tree of the 'ushar kind came between them, and one of them began to take refuge behind it from his opponent. Whenever he took refuge from him, he cut away with his sword what was in front of him until each of them emerged to face his opponent, and it became between them like a standing man with no branches. Then Marhab charged at Muhammad and struck him, but Muhammad met it with his shield. His sword fell into the shield and stuck in it, holding it fast, and Muhammad b. Maslama struck him until he killed him.
