The Expedition of Uḥud
قَالَ ابْنُ هِشَامٍ: أَنْشَدَنِي أَبُو عُبَيْدَةَ لِلْحَجَّاحِ بْنِ عِلَاطٍ السُّلَمِيِّ يَمْدَحُ ( أَبَا الْحَسَنِ أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ) عَلِيَّ بْنَ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ، وَيَذْكُرُ قَتْلَهُ طَلْحَةَ بْنَ أَبِي طَلْحَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْعُزَّى بْنِ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الدَّارِ، صَاحِبِ لِوَاءِ الْمُشْرِكِينَ يَوْمَ أُحُدٍ: لِلَّهِ أَيُّ مُذَبِّبٍ عَنْ حُرْمَةٍ أَعْنِي ابْنَ فَاطِمَةَ الْمُعَمَّ الْمُخْوِلَا سَبَقَتْ يَدَاكَ لَهُ بِعَاجِلِ طَعْنَةٍ تَرَكَتْ طُلَيْحَةَ لِلْجَبِينِ مُجَدَّلَا وَشَدَدْتَ شَدَّةَ بَاسِلٍ فَكَشَفْتهمْ بِالْجَرِّ إذْ يَهْوُونَ أَخْوَلَ أَخْوَلَا
Translation
✧ Ibn Hishām said: Abū ʿUbaydah recited to me, on the authority of al-Hajjāj b. ʿIlāṭ al-Sulamī, praising (Abū al-Ḥasan, the Commander of the Faithful) ʿAlī b. Abī Ṭālib, and mentioning his killing of Ṭalḥah b. Abī Ṭalḥah b. ʿAbd al-ʿUzzā b. ʿUthmān b. ʿAbd al-Dār, the bearer of the polytheists' banner on the day of Uḥud: For God, what a defender of a sacred trust! I mean the son of Fāṭimah, the paternal uncle, the maternal uncle. Your hands preceded him with a swift thrust that left Ṭulayḥah laid low upon his brow. You pressed with the charge of a valiant man and put them to flight by the dragging, as they fell, one uncle after another.
