Musnad Abi Ya'la 2921 — the people of the tribes of Usayyah, Dhakwan
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بِشْرٍ ، عَنْ سَعِيدٍ ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ أَنَّ عُصَيَّةَ ، وَذَكْوَانَ ، وَبَنِي لِحْيَانَ أَتَوُا النَّبِيَّ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فَاسْتَمَدُّوهُ وَقَدْ أَسْلَمُوا عَلَى عَدُوِّهِمْ ، فَأَمَدَّهُمْ بِسَبْعِينَ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ كَانُوا يُسَمَّوْنَ الْقُرَّاءَ ، كَانُوا يَحْتَطِبُونَ بِالنَّهَارِ وَيُصَلُّونَ بِاللَّيْلِ ، حَتَّى إِذَا كَانُوا بِبِئْرِ مَعُونَةَ قَتَلُوهُمْ ، فَقَنَتَ رَسُولُ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - شَهْرًا يَدْعُو عَلَيْهِمْ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) that the people of the tribes of Usayyah, Dhakwan and Banu Lihyan came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and (claimed) that they had accepted Islam. Then they asked him (peace and blessings be upon him) for military help against their enemy, so he (peace and blessings be upon him) helped them with seventy Companions of the Ansar who were called 'the Qurra'' (reciters of the Qur'an). These pure souls would gather firewood during the day and spend their nights in the worship of Allah and in prayer. When they reached the place of Bi'r Ma'unah, those tribes betrayed them and martyred them. In grief over this, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) performed qunut continuously for a month (in the prayers), supplicating against those killers.
