Hadith #374
Arabic Text
حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ أَخْبَرَنَا حُمَيْدٌ عَنْ أَنَسٍ أَنَّ عَمَّهُ غَابَ عَنْ قِتَالِ بَدْرٍ فَقَالَ غِبْتُ مِنْ أَوَّلِ قِتَالٍ قَاتَلَهُ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ لَئِنْ اللَّهُ أَشْهَدَنِي قِتَالًا لِلْمُشْرِكِينَ لَيَرَيَنَّ اللَّهُ مَا أَصْنَعُ فَلَمَّا كَانَ يَوْمُ أُحُدٍ انْكَشَفَ الْمُسْلِمُونَ فَقَالَ اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعْتَذِرُ إِلَيْكَ مِمَّا صَنَعَ هَؤُلَاءِ يَعْنِي أَصْحَابَهُ وَأَبْرَأُ إِلَيْكَ مِمَّا جَاءَ بِهِ هَ
ؤُلَاءِ يَعْنِي الْمُشْرِكِينَ ثُمَّ تَقَدَّمَ فَلَقِيَهُ سَعْدٌ لِأُخْرَاهَا دُونَ أُحُدٍ وَقَالَ يَزِيدُ بِبَغْدَادَ بِأُخْرَاهَا دُونَ أُحُدٍ فَقَالَ سَعْدٌ أَنَا مَعَكَ قَالَ سَعْدٌ فَلَمْ أَسْتَطِعْ أَنْ أَصْنَعَ مَا صَنَعَ فَوُجِدَ فِيهِ بِضْعٌ وَثَمَانُونَ مِنْ بَيْنِ ضَرْبَةٍ بِسَيْفٍ وَطَعْنَةٍ بِرُمْحٍ وَرَمْيَةٍ بِسَهْمٍ قَالَ فَكُنَّا نَقُولُ فِيهِ وَفِي أَصْحَابِهِ نَزَلَتْ { فَمِنْهُمْ مَنْ قَضَى نَحْبَهُ وَمِنْهُمْ مَنْ يَنْتَظِرُ }

English Translation
Anas (رضي الله عنه) narrated: His uncle [Anas ibn al-Nadr] was absent from the Battle of Badr and said: "I missed the first battle the Prophet ﷺ fought against the polytheists. If Allah lets me witness a battle against the polytheists, Allah will see what I do." He was present at Uhud. He met Sa'd ibn Mu'adh and said: "O Abu 'Amr, where to? I find the fragrance of Paradise from the direction of Uhud." He fought and was killed. Eighty-some wounds from swords, spears, and arrows were found on his body. The verse was revealed: 'Among the believers are men true to what they promised Allah' [33:23]. They used to say it was revealed about him and his companions.
