اُردوEn
فِيهِ الزُّبَيْرُ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ.
In this, Az-Zubair (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated from the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him).
حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ ، حَدَّثَنِي سَعْدُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ شَدَّادٍ ، عَنْ عَلِيٍّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ ، قَالَ : " مَا سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُفَدِّي أَحَدًا غَيْرَ سَعْدٍ سَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ : ارْمِ فَدَاكَ أَبِي وَأُمِّي أَظُنُّهُ يَوْمَ أُحُدٍ " .
Narrated `Ali: I never heard Allah's Apostle saying, "Let my father and mother be sacrificed for you," except for Sa`d (bin Abi Waqqas). I heard him saying, "Throw! (arrows), Let my father and mother be sacrificed for you !" (The sub-narrator added, "I think that was in the battle of Uhud.")

Hadith Footnote:
These are Sa’d ibn Abi Waqqas, for whom the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) used the words “May my father and mother be sacrificed for you (fidak abi wa ummi).” This is a clear indication of the great fortune of Sa’d (radi Allahu anhu).
In Madinah Munawwarah, as a memorial, such an arrow is preserved in a certain household, which I have personally seen.
It is said that this is the very arrow that was in the hand of Sa’d (radi Allahu anhu), and regarding which the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) uttered these words. And Allah knows best what is correct.
On the sheath of this arrow, the aforementioned hadith is inscribed.

Hadith Commentary:
(1)
Ali radi Allahu anhu has expressed his own knowledge and observation here; otherwise, the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam also used these words for Zubair bin al-Awwam radi Allahu anhu, as has been mentioned earlier.
(2)
The position of Imam Bukhari rahimahullah appears to be that there is no harm in using such words on occasions of someone's bravery and valor. The intention behind this is to encourage others.
And Allah knows best.
