Hadith of Abu Musa al-Ash'ari
Musnad Abi Ya'la 7222 — on the day of Hunayn the Messenger of Allah ﷺ
حَدَّثَنَا دَاوُدُ بْنُ عَمْرِو بْنِ زُهَيْرٍ الضَّبِّيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ ، عَنْ يَحْيَى ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ نُعَيْمٍ ، عَنِ الضَّحَّاكِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَرْزَبٍ الْأَشْعَرِيِّ ، عَنْ أَبِي مُوسَى الْأَشْعَرِيِّ ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - عَقَدَ يَوْمَ حُنَيْنٍ لِأَبِي عَامِرٍ الْأَشْعَرِيِّ عَلَى خَيْلِ الطَّلَبِ ، فَلَمَّا انْهَزَمَتْ هَوَازِنُ ، طَلَبَهَا ، حَتَّى أَدْرَكَ دُرَيْدَ بْنَ الصِّمَّةِ ، فَأَسْرَعَ بِهِ نَفَسُهُ ، فَقَتَلَ ابْنُ دُرَيْدٍ أَبَا عَامِرٍ ، قَالَ أَبُو مُوسَى : فَشَدَدْتُ عَلَى ابْنِ دُرَيْدٍ فَقَتَلْتُهُ ، وَأَخَذْتُ اللِّوَاءَ ، وَانْصَرَفْتُ بِالنَّاسِ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فَلَمَّا رَأَى اللِّوَاءَ بِيَدِي قَالَ : « أَبَا مُوسَى ، قُتِلَ أَبُو عَامِرٍ ؟ » قُلْتُ : نَعَمْ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ . قَالَ : فَرَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ يَدْعُو لَهُ ، يَقُولُ : اللَّهُمَّ أَبَا عَامِرٍ اجْعَلْهُ فِي الْأَكْثَرِينَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ هَذَا أَوْ نَحْوَهُ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Musa al-Ash'ari (may Allah be pleased with him) that on the day of Hunayn the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) appointed Sayyiduna Abu Amir al-Ash'ari (may Allah be pleased with him) commander of the pursuing cavalry. So when (the tribe of) Hawazin was defeated, he pursued them until he came face to face with Durayd bin al-Simmah. Then Durayd's son attacked swiftly and martyred Sayyiduna Abu Amir (may Allah be pleased with him). Sayyiduna Abu Musa (may Allah be pleased with him) relates: "Then I struck Durayd's son with full force and killed him, took up the Islamic banner, and then brought the people back to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)." When he (peace and blessings be upon him) saw the standard in my hand, he asked: "O Abu Musa! Has Abu Amir been martyred?" I said: "Yes, O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)!" The narrator says: Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) raised both his blessed hands in supplication and said: "Allahumma Aba Amir, ij'alhu fil-aktharin yawm al-qiyamah" (O Allah, include Abu Amir on the Day of Resurrection among those (who have the most in rank and reward)). He said these words or words like them.
