Narrated Abu Uqbah: Abdur Rahman ibn Abu Uqbah quoted his father Abu Uqbah who was a client from the people of Persia as saying: I was present at Uhud along with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and on smiting one of the polytheists I said: Take this from me who is the young Persian. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ then turned to me and said: Why did you not say: Take this from me who is the young Ansari?
