The Number of the Muslims' Camels
[ عَدَدُ إبِلِ الْمُسْلِمِينَ ] قَالَ ابْنُ إسْحَاقَ: وَكَانَتْ إبِلُ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَوْمَئِذٍ سَبْعِينَ بَعِيرًا، فَاعْتَقَبُوهَا، فَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ، وَعَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ، وَمَرْثَدُ بْنُ أَبِي مَرْثَدٍ الْغَنَوِيُّ يَعْتَقِبُونَ بَعِيرًا، وَكَانَ حَمْزَةُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ، وَزَيْدُ بْنُ حَارِثَةَ، وَأَبُو كَبْشَةَ، وَأَنَسَةُ، مَوْلَيَا رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَعْتَقِبُونَ بَعِيرًا، وَكَانَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ، وَعُمَرُ، وَعَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ عَوْفٍ يَعْتَقِبُونَ بَعِيرًا. قَالَ ابْنُ إسْحَاقَ: وَجَعَلَ عَلَى السَّاقَةِ قَيْسَ بْنَ أَبِي صَعْصَعَةَ أَخَا بَنِي مَازِنِ بْنِ النَّجَّارِ. وَكَانَتْ رَايَةُ الْأَنْصَارِ مَعَ سَعْدِ بْنِ مُعَاذٍ، فِيمَا قَالَ ابْنُ هِشَامٍ
