حَدَّثَنَا زَيْدُ بْنُ الْحُبَابِ حَدَّثَنِي الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ وَاقِدٍ حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ بُرَيْدَةَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي بُرَيْدَةُ قَالَ حَاصَرْنَا خَيْبَرَ فَأَخَذَ اللِّوَاءَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ فَانْصَرَفَ وَلَمْ يُفْتَحْ لَهُ ثُمَّ أَخَذَهُ مِنَ الْغَدِ فَخَرَجَ فَرَجَعَ وَلَمْ يُفْتَحْ لَهُ وَأَصَابَ النَّاسَ يَوْمَئِذٍ شِدَّةٌ وَجَهْدٌ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ ”إِنِّي دَافِعٌ اللِّوَاءَ غَدًا إِلَى رَجُلٍ يُحِبُّهُ اللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُ وَيُحِبُّ اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ لَا يَرْجِعُ حَتَّى يُفْتَحَ لَهُ“ فَبِتْنَا طَيِّبَةً أَنْفُسَنَا أَنَّ الْفَتْحَ غَدًا فَلَمَّا أَصْبَحَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ صَلَّى الْغَدَاةَ ثُمَّ قَامَ قَائِمًا فَدَعَا بِاللِّوَاءِ وَالنَّاسُ عَلَى مَصَافِّهِمْ فَدَعَا عَلِيًّا وَهُوَ أَرْمَدُ فَتَفَلَ فِي عَيْنَيْهِ وَدَفَعَ إِلَيْهِ اللِّوَاءَ وَفُتِحَ لَهُ قَالَ بُرَيْدَةُ وَأَنَا فِيمَنْ تَطَاوَلَ لَهَا
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Buraidah Aslami (may Allah be pleased with him), he says: We laid siege to Khaybar, and the flag was in the hand of Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him). He returned and there was no victory. The next day, again the flag remained with him, and that day too he returned and victory was not achieved. On that day, people faced much hardship and difficulty. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Tomorrow I will hand over this flag to such a man that Allah and His Messenger love him and he loves Allah and His Messenger, and he will not return without victory. We spent the night in happiness, hoping that victory would come the next day. When morning came and the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) led the prayer, he stood up and called for the flag. The people remained seated in their rows. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) called for Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him); his eyes were hurting. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) applied his blessed saliva to his eyes and handed the flag to him. Victory was granted at his hands. Sayyiduna Buraidah (may Allah be pleased with him) says: Among those who raised their necks in desire to receive the flag, I was also included.
