The Great Expedition of Badr
رُجُوعِهِ، عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ، مِنْ بَدْرٍ إِلَى الْمَدِينَةِ، وَمَا كَانَ مِنَ الْأُمُورِ فِي مَسِيرِهِ إِلَيْهَا مُؤَيَّدًا مَنْصُورًا، عَلَيْهِ مِنْ رَبِّهِ أَفْضَلُ الصَّلَاةِ وَالسَّلَامِ . وَثَبَتَ فِي " الصَّحِيحَيْنِ " أَنَّهُ كَانَ إِذَا ظَهَرَ عَلَى قَوْمٍ أَقَامَ بِالْعَرْصَةِ ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ، وَقَدْ أَقَامَ، عَلَيْهِ الصَّلَاةُ وَالسَّلَامُ، بِعَرْصَةِ بَدْرٍ ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ، وَكَانَ رَحِيلُهُ مِنْهَا لَيْلَةَ الِاثْنَيْنِ، فَرَكِبَ نَاقَتَهُ [ قُفُولُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ مِنْ بَدْرٍ ] ثُمَّ أَقْبَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَافِلًا إلَى الْمَدِينَةِ، وَمَعَهُ الْأُسَارَى مِنْ الْمُشْرِكِينَ، وَفِيهِمْ عُقْبَةُ بْنُ أَبِي مُعَيْطٍ، وَالنَّضْرُ بْنُ الْحَارِثِ، وَاحْتَمَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ مَعَهُ النَّفَلَ الَّذِي أُصِيبَ مِنْ الْمُشْرِكِينَ، وَجَعَلَ عَلَى النَّفَلِ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ كَعْبِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ عَوْفِ بْنِ مَبْذُولِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ غَنْمِ بْنِ مَازِنِ بْنِ النَّجَّارِ، فَقَالَ رَاجِزٌ مِنْ الْمُسْلِمِينَ - قَالَ ابْنُ هِشَامٍ: يُقَالُ: إنَّهُ عَدِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي الزَّغْبَاءِ: : أَقِمْ لَهَا صُدُورَهَا يَا بَسْبَسُ لَيْسَ بِذِي الطَّلْحِ لَهَا مُعَرَّسُ وَلَا بِصَحْرَاءِ غُمَيرٍ مَحْبَسُ إنَّ مَطَايَا الْقَوْمِ لَا تُخَيَّسُ فَحَمْلُهَا عَلَى الطَّرِيقِ أَكْيَسُ قَدْ نَصَرَ اللَّهُ وَفَرَّ الْأَخْنَسُ ثُمَّ أَقْبَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ - حَتَّى إذَا خَرَجَ مِنْ مَضِيقِ الصَّفْرَاءِ نَزَلَ عَلَى كَثِيبٍ بَيْنَ الْمَضِيقِ وَبَيْنَ النَّازِيَةِ - يُقَالُ لَهُ: سَيْرٌ - إلَى سَرْحَةٍ بِهِ. فَقَسَمَ هُنَالِكَ النَّفَلَ الَّذِي أَفَاءَ اللَّهُ عَلَى الْمُسْلِمِينَ مِنْ الْمُشْرِكِينَ عَلَى السَّوَاءِ، ثُمَّ ارْتَحَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ، حَتَّى إذَا كَانَ بِالرَّوْحَاءِ لَقِيَهُ الْمُسْلِمُونَ يُهَنِّئُونَهُ بِمَا فَتَحَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَمَنْ مَعَهُ مِنْ الْمُسْلِمِينَ، فَقَالَ لَهُمْ سَلَمَةُ بْنُ سَلَامَةَ - كَمَا حَدَّثَنِي عَاصِمُ بْنُ عُمَرَ بْنِ قَتَادَةَ، وَيَزِيدُ بْنُ رُومَانَ -: مَا الَّذِي تُهَنِّئُونَنَا بِهِ ؟ فَوَاَللَّهِ إنْ لَقِينَا إلَّا عَجَائِزَ صُلْعًا كَالْبُدْنِ الْمُعَقَّلَةِ، فَنَحَرْنَاهَا، فَتَبَسَّمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ ثُمَّ قَالَ: أَيْ ابْنَ أَخِي، أُولَئِكَ الْمَلَأُ. قَالَ ابْنُ هِشَامٍ: الْمَلَأُ: الْأَشْرَافُ وَالرُّؤَسَاءُ.
Translation
✧ His return, ﷺ, from Badr to Madinah, and what occurred during his journey to it, supported and victorious—upon him from his Lord be the best blessings and peace. It is established in the "Two Ṣaḥīḥs" that when he appeared victorious over a people, he would stay at the open ground for three days. And he, peace and blessings be upon him, stayed at the open ground of Badr for three days. His departure from it was on Monday night, riding his she-camel. [The return of the Messenger of Allah from Badr] Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ set out returning to Madinah, and with him were the captives from the polytheists, among them ʿUqbah b. Abī Muʿayṭ and al-Naḍr b. al-Ḥārith. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ carried with him the spoils that had been taken from the polytheists, and he placed ʿAbd Allāh b. Kaʿb b. ʿAmr b. ʿAwf b. Mabdhūl b. ʿAmr b. Ghanm b. Māzin b. al-Najjār in charge of the spoils. A poet from the Muslims recited—Ibn Hishām said: it is said that he was ʿAdī b. Abī al-Zaghbāʾ: : Make their chests stand, O Basbas! It has no resting place among the ṭalḥ trees, Nor is it detained in the desert of Ghumayr. The riding camels of the people are not to be held back; Loading them upon the road is wiser. God has granted victory, and al-Akhnas has fled. Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ proceeded until, when he emerged from the narrow pass of al-Ṣafrāʾ, he alighted at a sand hill between the narrow pass and al-Nāziyah—called Sayr—near a lotus tree there. There he divided the spoils that God had granted the Muslims from the polytheists equally among them. Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ departed, and when he was at al-Rawḥāʾ, the Muslims met him congratulating him on the victory God had granted him and those with him among the Muslims. Salamah b. Salāmah said to them—as ʿĀṣim b. ʿUmar b. Qatādah and Yazīd b. Rūmān narrated to me: "What is this for which you congratulate us? By God, we encountered none but bald old women like tethered sacrificial camels, and we slaughtered them." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ smiled and said: "O son of my brother, those were the chiefs." Ibn Hishām said: al-malaʾ means the nobles and leaders.
