Musnad Abi Ya'la 3921 — he said: On the day of Uhud, when some people
حَدَّثَنَا جَعْفَرٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَارِثِ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ، قَالَ : لَمَّا كَانَ يَوْمُ أُحُدٍ انْهَزَمَ نَاسٌ مِنَ النَّاسِ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - وَأَبُو طَلْحَةَ بَيْنَ يَدَيْ رَسُولِ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - يُجَوِّبُ عَنْهُ بِحَجَفَةٍ مَعَهُ ، قَالَ : وَكَانَ أَبُو طَلْحَةَ رَجُلًا رَامِيًا شَدِيدَ النَّزْعِ ، كَسَرَ يَوْمَئِذٍ قَوْسَيْنِ أَوْ ثَلَاثَةً ، وَكَانَ الرَّجُلُ يَمُرُّ بِالْجَعْبَةِ فِيهَا النَّبْلُ ، فَيَقُولُ : انْثُرْهَا لِأَبِي طَلْحَةَ ، قَالَ : وَيَتَشَرَّفُ نَبِيُّ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فَيَنْظُرُ إِلَى الْقَوْمِ ، فَيَقُولُ أَبُو طَلْحَةَ : يَا نَبِيَّ اللهِ ، بِأَبِي أَنْتَ وَأُمِّي ، لَا تُشْرِفْ يُصِبْكَ سَهْمٌ مِنْ سِهَامِ الْقَوْمِ ، نَحْرِي دُونَ نَحْرِكَ ، وَلَقَدْ رَأَيْتُ عَائِشَةَ بِنْتَ أَبِي بَكْرٍ ، وَأُمَّ سُلَيْمٍ وَإِنَّهُمَا مُشَمِّرَتَانِ أَرَى خَدَمَ سُوقِهِمَا ، تَنْقُلَانِ الْمَاءَ عَلَى مُتُونِهِمَا ، ثُمَّ تُفْرِغَانِهِ فِي أَفْوَاهِ الْقَوْمِ ، ثُمَّ تَرْجِعَانِ فَتَمْلَآنِهَا ، ثُمَّ تَجِيئَانِ فَتُفْرِغَانِهِ فِي أَفْوَاهِ الْقَوْمِ ، وَلَقَدْ وَقَعَ السَّيْفُ مِنْ يَدِ أَبِي طَلْحَةَ مِنَ النُّعَاسِ إِمَّا مَرَّتَيْنِ وَإِمَّا ثَلَاثَةً .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: "On the day of Uhud, when some people retreated and moved away from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), Sayyiduna Abu Talhah (may Allah be pleased with him) was standing in front of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) with his shield, defending him. Sayyiduna Abu Talhah (may Allah be pleased with him) was a bold archer who drew the bowstring with great force; that day he broke two or three bows (during the fighting). And whenever a man passed by with a quiver full of arrows, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) would say: 'Scatter these arrows for Abu Talhah.' Whenever the Prophet of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) raised his blessed head to look at the enemy ranks, Sayyiduna Abu Talhah (may Allah be pleased with him) would say: 'O Prophet of Allah, may my father and mother be ransomed for you! Do not raise your blessed head, lest one of the enemy's arrows strike you; my chest is a shield before your chest.' Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) related: I saw Sayyidah Aishah bint Abi Bakr (may Allah be pleased with her) and Sayyidah Umm Sulaym (may Allah be pleased with her) very active (in serving the jihad); they had gathered up their garments so that I could see the anklets on their shins. They would carry water-skins on their backs and pour water into the mouths of the wounded, then go back, fill them again, and give the people water once more. That day, from the intensity of drowsiness, the sword of Sayyiduna Abu Talhah (may Allah be pleased with him) fell from his hand two or three times."
