بَابُ مَا جَاءَ فِي سَعْدِ بْنِ أَبِي وَقَاصِ وَيُقَالُ لَهُ أَيْضًا: سَعْدُ بْنُ مَالِكِ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُChapter on What Has Been Narrated Regarding Sa'd ibn Abi Waqqas, also called Sa'd ibn Malik, may Allah be pleased with him

اُردوEn
حَدَّثَنَا قَيْسٌ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ سَعْدَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ يَقُولُ إِنِّي لَأَوَّلُ الْعَرَبِ رَمَى بِسَهْمٍ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ وَلَقَدْ أَتَيْنَا نَغْزُو مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَمَا لَنَا طَعَامٌ نَأْكُلُهُ إِلَّا وَرَقَ الْحُبْلَةِ وَهَذَا السَّمُرُ حَتَّى إِنَّ أَحَدَنَا لَيَضَعُ كَمَا تَضَعُ الشَّاةُ مَا لَهُ خِلْطٌ ثُمَّ أَصْبَحَتْ بَنُو أَسَدٍ يُعَزِّرُونِي عَلَى الدِّينِ لَقَدْ خِبْتُ إِذَنْ وَضَلَّ عَمَلِي
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Sa’d bin Malik, that is, Sa’d bin Abi Waqqas (may Allah be pleased with him), he says: I am the first Arab who was granted the honor of shooting an arrow in the way of Allah. I have seen the companions with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) in such a state that we had nothing to eat except the leaves of thorny trees and the leaves of the acacia tree. When we went to relieve ourselves, we would pass droppings like goats, and there was no impurity mixed with the excrement (i.e., the excrement was completely dry! The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) dispatched a detachment in 1 AH. The purpose was to attack a Qurayshi trade caravan. There was an exchange of arrows from both sides. Sa’d was included in this detachment and he was the first to shoot an arrow, which he is mentioning in this hadith. Fath al-Bari: p. 82. (Abdullah Rafiq)). Now, the condition of the people of Banu Asad is that they taunt me regarding religion. If their taunt is based on reality, then I am at a loss and my deeds are ruined.
