عَنْ أَبِي طَلْحَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ إِذَا قَاتَلَ قَوْمًا فَهَزَمَهُمْ أَقَامَ بِالْعَرْصَةِ ثَلَاثًا وَفِي لَفْظٍ لَمَّا فَرَغَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِنْ أَهْلِ بَدْرٍ أَقَامَ بِالْعَرْصَةِ ثَلَاثًا
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Talhah (may Allah be pleased with him) that when the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) fought against any people and defeated them, he would stay in the open field for three days. In another narration: When the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) finished with the people of Badr, he stayed in the open field for three days.
