فَحَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ الشَّيْبَانِيُّ ثنا حَامِدُ بْنُ أَبِي حَامِدٍ الْمُقْرِئُ ثنا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ الدَّشْتَكِيُّ ثنا عَمْرُو بْنُ أَبِي قَيْسٍ الرَّازِيِّ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ مُهَاجِرٍ عَنْ أَبِي الشَّعْثَاءِ عَنْ عَمِّهِ عَنْ أُسَامَةَ بْنِ زَيْدٍ قَالَ
بَعَثَنِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فِي سَرِيَّةٍ فِي أُنَاسٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ فَاسْتَبَقْنَا أَنَا وَرَجُلٌ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ إِلَى الْعَدُوِّ فَحَمَلْتُ عَلَى رَجُلٍ فَلَمَّا دَنَوْتُ مِنْهُ كَبَّرَ فَطَعَنْتُهُ فَقَتَلْتُهُ وَرَأَيْتُ أَنَّهُ إِنَّمَا فَعَلَ ذَلِكَ لِيُحْرِزَ دَمَهُ فَلَمَّا رَجَعْنَا سَبَقَنِي إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ لَا فَارِسَ خَيْرٍ مِنْ فَارِسِكُمْ إِنَّا اسْتَلْحَقْنَا رَجُلًا فَسَبَقَنِي إِلَيْهِ فَكَبَّرَ فَلَمْ يَمْنَعْهُ ذَلِكَ أَنْ قَتَلَهُ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «يَا أُسَامَةُ مَا صَنَعْتَ الْيَوْمَ؟» فَقُلْتُ حَمَلْتُ عَلَى رَجُلٍ فَكَبَّرَ فَرَأَيْتُ أَنَّهُ إِنَّمَا فَعَلَ لِيُحْرِزَ دَمَهُ فَقَتَلْتُهُ فَقَالَ «كَيْفَ بَعْدَ اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ فَهَلَّا شَقَقْتَ عَنْ قَلْبِهِ فَقُلْتُ مَا قَالَ» فَلَمْ يَزَلْ يَقُولُ لِي يَوْمَئِذٍ فَلَا أُقَاتِلُ رَجُلًا يَقُولُ اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ مِمَّا نَهَانِي عَنْهُ حَتَّى أَلْقَاهُ ﷺ

✧ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent me in a military detachment with some of his companions. A man from the Anṣār and I raced toward the enemy. I attacked a man, and when I approached him, he said 'Allāhu akbar,' so I thrust at him and killed him. I thought he only did that to protect his blood. When we returned, he preceded me to the Prophet ﷺ and said, 'O Messenger of Allah, there is no horseman better than your horseman. We pursued a man, and he got to him before me, so he said Allāhu akbar, and that did not prevent him from killing him.' The Prophet ﷺ said, 'O Usāmah, what did you do today?' I said, 'I attacked a man, and he said Allāhu akbar, and I thought he only did that to protect his blood, so I killed him.' He said, 'How, after Allāhu akbar? Why did you not split open his heart?' I said, 'What did he say?' He kept saying to me that day, 'I will not fight a man who says Allāhu akbar,' from what he prohibited me, until I meet him ﷺ.
