حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ قَالَ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ أَخْبَرَنِي عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ كَعْبِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ الْأَنْصَارِيُّ أَنَّ سَلَمَةَ بْنَ الْأَكْوَعِ قَالَ

لَمَّا كَانَ يَوْمُ خَيْبَرَ قَاتَلَ أَخِي قِتَالًا شَدِيدًا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَارْتَدَّ عَلَيْهِ سَيْفُهُ فَقَتَلَهُ، فَقَالَ أَصْحَابُ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فِي ذَلِكَ, وَشَكُّوا فِيهِ، رَجُلٌ مَاتَ بِسِلَاحِهِ، شَكُّوا فِي بَعْضِ أَمْرِهِ. قَالَ سَلَمَةُ: فَقَفَلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مِنْ خَيْبَرَ, فَقُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، أَتَأْذَنُ لِي أَنْ أَرْجُزَ بِكَ، فَأَذِنَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ، فَقَالَ لَهُ عُمَرُ: اعْلَمْ مَا تَقُولُ ؟ قَالَ: فَقُلْتُ: وَاللهِ لَوْلَا اللهُ مَا اهْتَدَيْنَا وَلَا تَصَدَّقْنَا وَلَا صَلَّيْنَا فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: "صَدَقْتَ " فَأَنْزِلَنْ سَكِينَةً عَلَيْنَا وَثَبِّتِ الْأَقْدَامَ إِنْ لَاقَيْنَا وَالْمُشْرِكُونَ قَدْ بَغَوْا عَلَيْنَا فَلَمَّا قَضَيْتُ رَجَزِي قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: "مَنْ قَالَ هَذَا ؟ "قُلْتُ: أَخِي قَالَهَا. فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: "يَرْحَمُهُ اللهُ ", فَقُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، وَاللهِ إِنَّ نَاسًا لَيَهَابُونَ أَنْ يُصَلُّوا عَلَيْهِ, وَيَقُولُونَ: رَجُلٌ مَاتَ بِسِلَاحِهِ. فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: مَاتَ جَاهِدًا مُجَاهِدًا

✧ On the day of Khaybar, my brother fought fiercely alongside the Messenger of God ﷺ, and his sword recoiled upon him and killed him. The companions of the Messenger of God ﷺ spoke about that and were doubtful about him, saying: A man who died by his own weapon; they doubted some aspect of his affair. Salamah said: When the Messenger of God ﷺ returned from Khaybar, I said: 'O Messenger of God, will you permit me to recite rajaz poetry for you?' The Messenger of God ﷺ permitted him. 'Umar said to him: 'Know what you are saying.' He said: I said: 'By God, had it not been for God, we would not have been guided, nor given charity, nor prayed.' The Messenger of God ﷺ said: 'You have spoken the truth.' 'So send down tranquility upon us, and make our feet firm if we meet the enemy. The polytheists have transgressed against us.' When I finished my rajaz, the Messenger of God ﷺ said: 'Who said this?' I said: 'My brother said it.' The Messenger of God ﷺ said: 'May God have mercy on him.' I said: 'O Messenger of God, by God, some people are afraid to pray over him, saying: A man who died by his own weapon.' The Messenger of God ﷺ said: 'He died striving as a mujahid.'
