أَخْبَرَنِي الْحَسَنُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْحَلِيمِيُّ بِمَرْوَ أَنَا أَبُو الْمُوَجِّهِ أَنَا عَبْدَانُ أَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ أَنَا رَجُلٌ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ الْحَارِثِ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي هِلَالٍ أَنَّ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنَ أَبَانَ حَدَّثَهُ
«أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ لَمَّا خَرَجَ إِلَى بَدْرٍ أَرَادَ سَعْدَ بْنَ خَيْثَمَةَ وَأَبُوهُ جَمِيعًا الْخُرُوجَ مَعَهُ فَذَكَرَ ذَلِكَ لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَأَمَرَ أَنْ يَخْرُجَ أَحَدُهُمَا فَاسْتَهَمَا» فَقَالَ خَيْثَمَةُ بْنُ الْحَارِثِ لِابْنِهِ سَعْدٍ إِنَّهُ لَا بُدَّ لِأَحَدِنَا مِنْ أَنْ يُقِيمَ فَأَقِمْ مَعَ نِسَائِكَ فَقَالَ سَعْدٌ لَوْ كَانَ غَيْرُ الْجَنَّةِ لَآثَرْتُكَ بِهِ أَنِّي أَرْجُو الشَّهَادَةَ فِي وَجْهِي هَذَا فَاسْتَهَمَا فَخَرَجَ سَهْمُ سَعْدٍ فَخَرَجَ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِلَى بَدْرٍ فَقَتَلَهُ عَمْرُو بْنُ عَبْدِ وَدٍّمرسل وإسناده ضعيف

✧ When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ set out to Badr, Sa'd b. Khaythamah and his father both wanted to go out with him. They mentioned that to the Prophet ﷺ, and he ordered that one of them should go out, so they cast lots. Khaythamah b. al-Harith said to his son Sa'd, "One of us must stay behind, so stay with your wives." Sa'd said, "If it were anything other than Paradise, I would have preferred you with it. I hope for martyrdom in this expedition of mine." They cast lots, and Sa'd's arrow came out, so he went out with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ to Badr, and Amr b. Abd Wadd killed him. It is mursal and its chain is weak.
