حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ النُّفَيْلِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْحَاق ، حَدَّثَنِي ابْنُ عَبَّادٍ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَبَّادِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ ، قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد وَهُوَ يَحْيَى بْن عَبَّادٍ ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي الَّذِي أَرْضَعَنِي وَهُوَ أَحَدُ بَنِي مُرَّةَ بْنِ عَوْفٍ ، وَكَانَ فِي تِلْكَ الْغَزَاةِ غَزَاةِ مُؤْتَةَ قَالَ : وَاللَّهِ لَكَأَنِّي أَنْظُرُ إِلَى جَعْفَرٍ حِينَ اقْتَحَمَ عَنْ فَرَسٍ لَهُ شَقْرَاءَ فَعَقَرَهَا ثُمَّ قَاتَلَ الْقَوْمَ حَتَّى قُتِلَ ، قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد : هَذَا الْحَدِيثُ لَيْسَ بِالْقَوِيِّ .
Narrated Abbad ibn Abdullah ibn az-Zubayr: My foster-father said to me - he was one of Banu Murrah ibn Awf, and he was present in that battle, the battle of Mu'tah: By Allah, as if I am seeing Jafar who jumped from his reddish horse and hamstrung it; he then fought with the people until he was killed. Abu Dawud said: The tradition is not strong.

Benefits and Issues:
If, during battle, there is a fear that the combatant will be overpowered, then it is permissible for him to destroy his mount or other belongings, so that the enemy cannot benefit from them. Shaykh al-Albani has declared this narration to be hasan (good).
