Musnad Ahmad 20736

Translation

✧ Someone who heard the Prophet ﷺ while he was in Wādī al-Qurā on his horse informed him: A man from Bulqīn asked him: O Messenger of Allah, who are these? He said: These are those who have incurred anger—and he pointed to the Jews. He said: Who are these? He said: These are those who have gone astray—meaning the Christians. Then a man came to him and said: Your client—or he said: your servant—so-and-so has been martyred. He said: Rather, he is being dragged to the Fire in a cloak that he stole from the spoils.
