The Expedition of Uḥud
أم عمارة نسيبة بنت كعب ودفاعها عن النبي ﷺ قَالَ ابْنُ هِشَامٍ: وَقَاتَلَتْ أُمُّ عُمَارَةَ، نُسَيْبَةُ بِنْتُ كَعْبٍ الْمَازِنِيَّةُ يَوْمَ أُحُدٍ. فَذَكَرَ سَعِيدُ بْنُ أَبِي زَيْدٍ الْأَنْصَارِيُّ: أَنَّ أُمَّ سَعْدِ بِنْتِ سَعْدِ بْنِ الرَّبِيعِ كَانَتْ تَقُولُ: دَخَلْتُ عَلَى أُمِّ عُمَارَةَ، فَقُلْتُ لَهَا: يَا خَالَةُ، أَخْبِرِينِي خَبَرَكَ؛ فَقَالَتْ: خَرَجْتُ أَوَّلَ النَّهَارِ وَأَنَا أَنْظُرُ مَا يَصْنَعُ النَّاسُ، وَمَعِي سِقَاءٌ فِيهِ مَاءٌ، فَانْتَهَيْتُ إلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ، وَهُوَ فِي أَصْحَابِهِ، وَالدَّوْلَةُ وَالرِّيحُ لِلْمُسْلِمِينَ. فَلَمَّا انْهَزَمَ الْمُسْلِمُونَ، انْحَزْتُ إلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ، فَقُمْتُ أُبَاشِرُ الْقِتَالَ، وَأَذُبُّ عَنْهُ بِالسَّيْفِ، وَأَرْمِي عَنْ الْقَوْسِ، حَتَّى خَلَصَتْ الْجِرَاحُ إلَيَّ. قَالَتْ: فَرَأَيْتُ عَلَى عَاتِقِهَا جُرْحًا أَجْوَفَ لَهُ غَوْرٌ، فَقُلْتُ: مَنْ أَصَابَكَ بِهَذَا ؟ قَالَتْ: ابْنُ قَمِئَةَ، أَقْمَأَهُ اللَّهُ لَمَّا وَلَّى النَّاسُ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَقْبَلَ يَقُولُ: دُلُّونِي عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ، فَلَا نَجَوْتُ إنْ نَجَا، فَاعْتَرَضْتُ لَهُ أَنَا وَمُصْعَبُ بْنُ عُمَيْرٍ، وَأُنَاسٌ مِمَّنْ ثَبَتَ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ، فَضَرَبَنِي هَذِهِ الضَّرْبَةَ وَلَكِنْ فَلَقَدْ ضَرَبْتُهُ عَلَى ذَلِكَ ضَرْبَاتٍ، وَلَكِنَّ عَدُوَّ اللَّهِ كَانَ عَلَيْهِ دِرْعَانِ
Translation
✧ Umm ʿUmārah Nusaybah bt. Kaʿb and Her Defense of the Prophet ﷺ Ibn Hishām said: Umm ʿUmārah, Nusaybah bt. Kaʿb al-Māzinīyah, fought on the day of Uḥud. Saʿīd b. Abī Zayd al-Anṣārī mentioned that Umm Saʿd bt. Saʿd b. al-Rabīʿ used to say: I entered upon Umm ʿUmārah and said to her: O maternal aunt, tell me your news. She said: I went out at the beginning of the day looking at what the people were doing, and with me was a waterskin containing water. I came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ while he was among his companions, and the turn and the wind were for the Muslims. When the Muslims were defeated, I withdrew to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and stood engaging directly in combat, defending him with the sword and shooting with the bow, until the wounds reached me. She said: I saw on her shoulder a deep wound with a cavity, so I said: Who struck you with this? She said: Ibn Qamiʾah, may Allah abase him. When the people turned away from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, he came forward saying: Show me Muḥammad; I will not be saved if he is saved. So I confronted him along with Muṣʿab b. ʿUmayr and some people who stood firm with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and he struck me this blow, but I struck him several blows for that, yet the enemy of Allah had on two coats of mail.
