Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 39447 — The great Battle of Badr, how it came

Hisham narrates from his father that Sayyidah Ruqayyah (may Allah be pleased with her), the daughter of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), passed away while he (peace and blessings be upon him) had gone out to Badr. She was the wife of Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him). So Sayyiduna Uthman and Sayyiduna Usamah bin Zayd (may Allah be pleased with them) stayed behind that day. While they were burying her, Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) heard the sound of takbir. Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "O Usamah, what is this sound of takbir?" Sayyiduna Usamah (may Allah be pleased with him) looked, and it was Sayyiduna Zayd bin Harithah (may Allah be pleased with him), riding the she-camel of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) called al-Jad'a (the one with the cut nose), bringing the glad news of the destruction of the polytheists at Badr. (Thereupon) the hypocrites said: "By Allah, this is nothing (reliable). It is nothing but a lie." Until the polytheists were brought in shackles, tightly bound.
