Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 36106 — What I have memorised on al-Yarmuk

Abu Ishaq said: When Ikrimah bin Abi Jahl accepted Islam, he came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: "O Messenger of Allah, every method I adopted to block people from the path of Allah, I will adopt in the path of Allah, and as much wealth as I spent to block people from the path of Allah, I will spend the same in the path of Allah." At the Battle of Yarmuk, Sayyiduna Ikrimah (may Allah be pleased with him) dismounted and fought on foot, fighting fiercely, and then he was martyred, and on his body there were more than seventy marks of spears, swords and arrows.
