حَدَّثَنَا حِبَّانُ بْنُ مُوسَى ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ ، أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ ، عَنْ الزُّهْرِيِّ ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيِّبِ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ ، قَالَ : شَهِدْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ خَيْبَرَ ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِرَجُلٍ مِمَّنْ مَعَهُ يَدَّعِي الْإِسْلَامَ : " هَذَا مِنْ أَهْلِ النَّارِ " ، فَلَمَّا حَضَرَ الْقِتَالُ : قَاتَلَ الرَّجُلُ مِنْ أَشَدِّ الْقِتَالِ وَكَثُرَتْ بِهِ الْجِرَاحُ فَأَثْبَتَتْهُ ، فَجَاءَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، أَرَأَيْتَ الرَّجُلَ الَّذِي تَحَدَّثْتَ أَنَّهُ مِنْ أَهْلِ النَّارِ قَدْ قَاتَلَ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ مِنْ أَشَدِّ الْقِتَالِ ، فَكَثُرَتْ بِهِ الْجِرَاحُ ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " أَمَا إِنَّهُ مِنْ أَهْلِ النَّارِ " ، فَكَادَ بَعْضُ الْمُسْلِمِينَ يَرْتَابُ ، فَبَيْنَمَا هُوَ عَلَى ذَلِكَ ، إِذْ وَجَدَ الرَّجُلُ أَلَمَ الْجِرَاحِ فَأَهْوَى بِيَدِهِ إِلَى كِنَانَتِهِ فَانْتَزَعَ مِنْهَا سَهْمًا فَانْتَحَرَ بِهَا ، فَاشْتَدَّ رِجَالٌ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقَالُوا : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، صَدَّقَ اللَّهُ حَدِيثَكَ ، قَدِ انْتَحَرَ فُلَانٌ فَقَتَلَ نَفْسَهُ ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " يَا بِلَالُ ، قُمْ فَأَذِّنْ لَا يَدْخُلُ الْجَنَّةَ إِلَّا مُؤْمِنٌ ، وَإِنَّ اللَّهَ لَيُؤَيِّدُ هَذَا الدِّينَ بِالرَّجُلِ الْفَاجِرِ " .
Narrated Abu Huraira: We witnessed along with Allah's Apostle the Khaibar (campaign). Allah's Apostle told his companions about a man who claimed to be a Muslim, "This man is from the people of the Fire." When the battle started, the man fought very bravely and received a great number of wounds and got crippled. On that, a man from among the companions of the Prophet came and said, "O Allah's Apostle! Do you know what the man you described as of the people of the Fire has done? He has fought very bravely for Allah's Cause and he has received many wounds." The Prophet said, "But he is indeed one of the people of the Fire." Some of the Muslims were about to have some doubt about that statement. So while the man was in that state, the pain caused by the wounds troubled him so much that he put his hand into his quiver and took out an arrow and committed suicide with it. Off went some men from among the Muslims to Allah's Apostle and said, "O Allah's Apostle! Allah has made your statement true. So-and-so has committed suicide." Allah's Apostle said, "O Bilal! Get up and announce in public: None will enter Paradise but a believer, and Allah may support this religion (Islam) with a wicked man."

Hadith Commentary:
Apparently, that person was engaged in jihad, but later he committed suicide and thereby nullified all his deeds.
This is the correspondence between the chapter and the hadith.
In reality, the validity of deeds depends upon their conclusion.
May Allah, the Exalted, grant every Muslim a good ending upon tawhid (monotheism), the Sunnah, and love for Himself and His beloved sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, and may the soul depart at the last moment upon the kalimah tayyibah (the pure testimony of faith).
Ameen.

Hadith Commentary:
They say that this person's name was Farman, who had apparently become Muslim. Seeing his apparent zeal in jihad, Satan outwardly misled people by suggesting: how could such a person, who fights and is killed in the path of Allah in this manner, possibly be from the people of Hell?
This hadith is not in contradiction to the hadith which states that we should not seek help from a polytheist (mushrik).
Because that hadith is specific to a particular circumstance, and during the Battle of Hunayn, Safwan bin Umayyah was with the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam),
even though he was a polytheist at that time. Secondly, this person was apparently a Muslim.
But the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) was informed through revelation that he was a hypocrite (munafiq) and that his end would be evil.

Hadith Commentary:
➊
The person whose feats in jihad became widely known among the Muslims—seeing his valor in fighting in the path of Allah, Satan misled some people into thinking: “How can such a person, who fights so bravely in Allah’s cause and is killed, possibly be from the people of Hell?” After this, the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) clarified the matter.
➋
This hadith does not contradict the hadith in which the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) said, “We do not seek help from a polytheist in battle” (Sahih Muslim, Kitab al-Jihad wa’l-Siyar, Hadith: 4700(1817)), because that statement is specific to a particular situation, or “wicked person” (fajir) here refers to someone who is not a polytheist.
The first answer is weightier, because in the Battle of Hunayn, Safwan ibn Umayyah was with the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) and at that time he was a polytheist. Also, that person appeared outwardly to be a Muslim, but the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) was informed by revelation that he was a hypocrite and that his end would be evil.
And Allah knows best.
