The Battle Cry of the Muslims at Badr
فَمَرَّ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مَسْعُودٍ بِأَبِي جَهْلٍ، حِينَ أَمَرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَنْ يُلْتَمَسَ فِي الْقَتْلَى، وَقَدْ قَالَ لَهُمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ - فِيمَا بَلَغَنِي - اُنْظُرُوا، إنْ خَفِيَ عَلَيْكُمْ فِي الْقَتْلَى، إلَى أَثَرِ جُرْحٍ فِي رُكْبَتِهِ، فَإِنِّي ازْدَحَمْتُ يَوْمًا أَنَا وَهُوَ عَلَى مَأْدُبَةٍ لِعَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ جُدْعَانَ، وَنَحْنُ غُلَامَانِ، وَكُنْتُ أَشَفَّ مِنْهُ بِيَسِيرٍ، فَدَفَعْتُهُ فَوَقَعَ عَلَى رُكْبَتَيْهِ، فَجُحِشَ فِي إحْدَاهُمَا جَحْشًا لَمْ يَزَلْ أَثَرُهُ بِهِ. قَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مَسْعُودٍ: فَوَجَدْتُهُ بِآخِرِ رَمَقٍ فَعَرَفْتُهُ، فَوَضَعْتُ رِجْلِي عَلَى عُنُقِهِ - قَالَ: وَقَدْ كَانَ ضَبَثَ بِي مَرَّةً بِمَكَّةَ، فَآذَانِي وَلَكَزَنِي، ثُمَّ قُلْتُ لَهُ: هَلْ أَخْزَاكَ اللَّهُ يَا عَدُوَّ اللَّهِ ؟ قَالَ: وَبِمَاذَا أَخْزَانِي، أَعْمَدُ مِنْ رَجُلٍ قَتَلْتُمُوهُ، أَخْبِرْنِي لِمَنْ الدَّائِرَةُ الْيَوْمَ ؟ قَالَ: قُلْتُ: لِلَّهِ وَلِرَسُولِهِ. قَالَ ابْنُ هِشَامٍ: ضَبَثَ: قَبَضَ عَلَيْهِ وَلَزِمَهُ. قَالَ ضَابِئُ بْنُ الْحَارِثِ الْبُرْجُمِيُّ: فَأَصْبَحْتُ مِمَّا كَانَ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَكُمْ مِنْ الْوُدِّ مِثْلَ الضَّابِثِ الْمَاءَ بِالْيَدِ قَالَ ابْنُ هِشَامٍ: وَيُقَالُ: أَعَارٌ عَلَى رَجُلٍ قَتَلْتُمُوهُ، أَخْبِرْنِي لِمَنْ الدَّائِرَةُ الْيَوْمَ ؟ قَالَ ابْنُ إسْحَاقَ: وَزَعَمَ رِجَالٌ مِنْ بَنِي مَخْزُومٍ، أَنَّ ابْنَ مَسْعُودٍ كَانَ يَقُولُ: قَالَ لِي: لَقَدْ ارْتَقَيْتَ مُرْتَقًى صَعْبًا يَا رُوَيْعِي الْغَنَمِ قَالَ: ثُمَّ احْتَرَزْتُ رَأْسَهُ ثُمَّ جِئْتُ بِهِ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ، فَقُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، هَذَا رَأْسُ عَدُوِّ اللَّهِ أَبِي جَهْلٍ، قَالَ: فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ: آللَّهِ الَّذِي لَا إلَهَ غَيْرُهُ - قَالَ: وَكَانَتْ يَمِينَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ - قَالَ: قُلْتُ نَعَمْ، وَاَللَّهِ الَّذِي لَا إلَهَ غَيْرُهُ، ثُمَّ أَلْقَيْتُ رَأْسَهُ بَيْنَ يَدَيْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَحَمِدَ اللَّهَ. قَالَ ابْنُ هِشَامٍ: وَحَدَّثَنِي أَبُو عُبَيْدَةَ وَغَيْرُهُ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ بِالْمَغَازِي: أَنَّ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ قَالَ لِسَعِيدِ بْنِ الْعَاصِ، وَمَرَّ بِهِ: إنِّي أَرَاكَ كَأَنَّ فِي نَفْسِكَ شَيْئًا، أَرَاكَ تَظُنُّ أَنِّي قَتَلْتُ أَبَاكَ، إنِّي لَوْ قَتَلْتُهُ لَمْ أَعْتَذِرْ إلَيْكَ مِنْ قَتْلِهِ، وَلَكِنِّي قَتَلْتُ خَالِي الْعَاصِ بْنَ هِشَامِ بْنِ الْمُغِيرَةِ، فَأَمَّا أَبُوكَ فَإِنِّي مَرَرْتُ ( بِهِ ) وَهُوَ يَبْحَثُ بَحْثَ الثَّوْرِ بِرَوْقِهِ فَحُدْتُ عَنْهُ، وَقَصَدَ لَهُ ابْنُ عَمِّهِ عَلِيٌّ فَقَتَلَهُ.
Translation
✧ ʿAbd Allāh b. Masʿūd passed by Abū Jahl when the Messenger of God ﷺ had ordered that he be sought among the slain. The Messenger of God ﷺ had said to them—as far as it has reached me—: "Look, if he is hidden from you among the slain, for the trace of a wound in his knee, for I once crowded together with him at a banquet of ʿAbd Allāh b. Judʿān when we were two boys, and I was a little taller than him. I pushed him and he fell on his knees, and one of them was scraped with a scrape whose trace did not cease to remain on him." ʿAbd Allāh b. Masʿūd said: I found him at the last gasp and recognized him, and I placed my foot on his neck. He said: He had once seized me in Makkah and harmed me and struck me. Then I said to him: Has God disgraced you, O enemy of God? He said: And with what has He disgraced me? Is there anyone greater than a man whom you have killed? Tell me: for whom is the turn of fortune today? He said: I said: For God and His Messenger. Ibn Hishām said: ḍabatha means he seized him and clung to him. Ḍābiʾ b. al-Ḥārith al-Burjumī said: So I became, of what was between me and you of affection, like one who seizes water with his hand. Ibn Hishām said: It is also said: "Is there any shame upon a man whom you have killed? Tell me: for whom is the turn of fortune today?" Ibn Isḥāq said: Men of Banū Makhzūm claimed that Ibn Masʿūd used to say: He said to me: You have climbed a difficult ascent, O little shepherd of sheep. He said: Then I severed his head and brought it to the Messenger of God ﷺ, and I said: O Messenger of God, this is the head of the enemy of God, Abū Jahl. He said: The Messenger of God ﷺ said: By God, other than whom there is no god—he said: and that was the oath of the Messenger of God ﷺ—he said: I said: Yes, by God, other than whom there is no god. Then I cast his head before the Messenger of God ﷺ, and he praised God. Ibn Hishām said: Abū ʿUbaydah and others of the people of knowledge of the campaigns related to me that ʿUmar b. al-Khaṭṭāb said to Saʿīd b. al-ʿĀṣ, when he passed by him: I see you as though there is something in your mind; I see you think that I killed your father. If I had killed him, I would not apologize to you for killing him. But I killed my maternal uncle al-ʿĀṣ b. Hishām b. al-Mughīrah. As for your father, I passed by him while he was pawing the ground as a bull paws with its horn, so I turned aside from him, and his cousin ʿAlī made for him and killed him.
