Arabic Text
حَدَّثَنَا بَهْزٌ وَحَدَّثَنَا هَاشِمٌ قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ الْمُغِيرَةِ عَنْ ثَابِتٍ قَالَ قَالَ أَنَسٌ عَمِّي قَالَ هَاشِمٌ أَنَسُ بْنُ النَّضْرِ سُمِّيتُ بِهِ لَمْ يَشْهَدْ مَعَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَوْمَ بَدْرٍ قَالَ فَشَقَّ عَلَيْهِ وَقَالَ فِي أَوَّلِ مَشْهَدٍ شَهِدَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ غِبْتُ عَنْهُ لَئِنْ أَرَانِي اللَّهُ مَشْهَدًا فِيمَا بَعْدُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَيَرَيَنَّ اللَّهُ مَا أَصْنَعُ قَالَ فَهَابَ أَنْ يَقُولَ غَيْرَهَا قَالَ فَشَهِدَ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَوْمَ أُحُدٍ قَالَ فَاسْتَقْبَلَ سَعْدَ بْنَ مُعَاذٍ قَالَ فَقَالَ
لَهُ أَنَسٌ يَا أَبَا عَمْرٍو أَيْنَ قَالَ وَاهًا لِرِيحِ الْجَنَّةِ أَجِدُهُ دُونَ أُحُدٍ قَالَ فَقَاتَلَهُمْ حَتَّى قُتِلَ فَوُجِدَ فِي جَسَدِهِ بِضْعٌ وَثَمَانُونَ مِنْ ضَرْبَةٍ وَطَعْنَةٍ وَرَمْيَةٍ قَالَ فَقَالَتْ أُخْتُهُ عَمَّتِي الرُّبَيِّعُ بِنْتُ النَّضْرِ فَمَا عَرَفْتُ أَخِي إِلَّا بِبَنَانِهِ وَنَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ { رِجَالٌ صَدَقُوا مَا عَاهَدُوا اللَّهَ عَلَيْهِ فَمِنْهُمْ مَنْ قَضَى نَحْبَهُ وَمِنْهُمْ مَنْ يَنْتَظِرُ وَمَا بَدَّلُوا تَبْدِيلًا } قَالَ فَكَانُوا يَرَوْنَ أَنَّهَا نَزَلَتْ فِيهِ وَفِي أَصْحَابِهِ

English Translation
Anas (رضي الله عنه) said: My uncle — Hashim said: Anas ibn al-Nadr — after whom I was named, did not witness the Battle of Badr with the Prophet ﷺ. That troubled him and he said: "The first battle the Messenger of Allah ﷺ fought, I was absent from it. If Allah shows me another battle with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, Allah will see what I will do." He was reluctant to say more than that. He was present at Uhud, and he met Sa'd ibn Mu'adh. He said: "O Abu 'Amr, where to? How sweet is the fragrance of Paradise! I find it near Uhud." He fought until he was killed. More than eighty wounds from swords, spears, and arrows were found on his body. His sister — my paternal aunt — al-Rubayyi' bint al-Nadr said: "I could not recognize my brother except by his fingertips." And this verse was revealed: 'Among the believers are men who have been true to their covenant with Allah' [33:23].
