Hadith of Abu Musa al-Ash'ari
Musnad Abi Ya'la 7313 — when the Messenger of Allah ﷺ had finished
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو كُرَيْبٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ ، عَنْ بُرَيْدٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي بُرْدَةَ ، عَنْ أَبِي مُوسَى قَالَ : لَمَّا فَرَغَ رَسُولُ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - مِنْ حُنَيْنٍ ، بَعَثَ أَبَا عَامِرٍ عَلَى جَيْشٍ إِلَى أَوْطَاسٍ ، فَلَقِيَ دُرَيْدَ بْنَ الصِّمَّةِ ، فَقَتَلَ دُرَيْدًا ، وَهَزَمَ اللهُ أَصْحَابَهُ ، قَالَ أَبُو مُوسَى : وَبَعَثَنِي مَعَ أَبِي عَامِرٍ قَالَ : فَرُمِيَ أَبُو عَامِرٍ فِي رُكْبَتِهِ ، رَمَاهُ رَجُلٌ مِنْ بَنِي جُشَمٍ بِسَهْمٍ ، فَأَثْبَتَهُ فِي رُكْبَتِهِ ، فَانْتَهَيْتُ إِلَيْهِ فَقُلْتُ : يَا عَمِّ ، مَنْ رَمَاكَ ؟ فَأَشَارَ أَبُو عَامِرٍ إِلَى أَبِي مُوسَى : أَنَّ ذَاكَ قَاتِلِي ، تُرَاهُ ذَاكَ الَّذِي رَمَانِي ، قَالَ أَبُو مُوسَى : فَقَصَدْتُ لَهُ ، فَاعْتَمَدْتُ لَهُ ، فَلَحِقْتُهُ ، فَلَمَّا رَآنِي وَلَّى عَنِّي ذَاهِبًا فَاتَّبَعْتُهُ ، وَجَعَلْتُ أَقُولُ : أَلَا تَسْتَحِي ؟ أَلَا تَثْبُتُ ؟ أَلَا تَسْتَحِي ؟ أَلَسْتَ عَرَبِيًّا ؟ فَكَفَّ ، فَالْتَقَيْتُ أَنَا وَهُوَ ، فَاخْتَلَفْنَا أَنَا وَهُوَ ضَرْبَتَيْنِ ، فَضَرَبْتُهُ بِالسَّيْفِ فَقَتَلْتُهُ ثُمَّ رَجَعْتُ إِلَى أَبِي عَامِرٍ ، فَقُلْتُ : قَدْ قَتَلَ اللهُ صَاحِبَكَ .
قَالَ : فَانْزِعْ هَذَا السَّهْمَ ، فَنَزَعْتُهُ ، فَنَزَلَ مِنْهُ الْمَاءُ قَالَ : يَا ابْنَ أَخِي ، انْطَلِقْ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فَأَقْرِئْهُ مِنِّي السَّلَامَ ، وَقُلْ لَهُ : يَقُولُ لَكَ : اسْتَغْفِرْ لِي .
قَالَ : فَاسْتَخْلَفَنِي أَبُو عَامِرٍ ، وَمَكَثَ يَسِيرًا ، ثُمَّ إِنَّهُ مَاتَ ، فَلَمَّا رَجَعْتُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - دَخَلْتُ عَلَيْهِ وَهُوَ فِي بَيْتٍ عَلَى سَرِيرٍ ، وَقَدْ أَثَّرَ السَّرِيرُ بِظَهْرِ رَسُولِ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - وَجَنْبَيْهِ ، فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ خَبَرَنَا ، وَخَبَرَ أَبِي عَامِرٍ ، فَقُلْتُ : إِنَّهُ قَدْ قَالَ : اسْتَغْفِرْ لِي . قَالَ : فَدَعَا رَسُولُ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - بِمَاءٍ فَتَوَضَّأَ مِنْهُ ، ثُمَّ رَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ ، ثُمَّ قَالَ : اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِعُبَيْدٍ أَبِي عَامِرٍ ، ثُمَّ قَالَ : اللَّهُمَّ اجْعَلْهُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ فَوْقَ كَثِيرٍ مِنْ خَلْقِكَ ، وَمِنَ النَّاسِ .
فَقُلْتُ : وَلِي يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ فَاسْتَغْفِرْ ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِعَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ قَيْسٍ ذَنْبَهُ ، وَأَدْخِلْهُ مُدْخَلًا كَرِيمًا .
قَالَ أَبُو بُرْدَةَ : إِحْدَاهُمَا لِأَبِي عَامِرٍ وَالْأُخْرَى لِأَبِي مُوسَى .
قَالَ : فَانْزِعْ هَذَا السَّهْمَ ، فَنَزَعْتُهُ ، فَنَزَلَ مِنْهُ الْمَاءُ قَالَ : يَا ابْنَ أَخِي ، انْطَلِقْ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فَأَقْرِئْهُ مِنِّي السَّلَامَ ، وَقُلْ لَهُ : يَقُولُ لَكَ : اسْتَغْفِرْ لِي .

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Musa (may Allah be pleased with him) that when the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) had finished with (the battle of) Hunayn, he (peace and blessings be upon him) sent an army under the command of Sayyiduna Abu Amir (may Allah be pleased with him) to Awtas. There they met Durayd bin al-Simmah, and Sayyiduna Abu Amir (may Allah be pleased with him) killed Durayd, and Allah Almighty defeated his companions. Sayyiduna Abu Musa (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) had sent me too with Sayyiduna Abu Amir (may Allah be pleased with him). (During the fighting) a man from Banu Jusham shot an arrow at the knee of Sayyiduna Abu Amir (may Allah be pleased with him), and it lodged in his knee. I reached him and asked: "O uncle, who shot you?" Sayyiduna Abu Amir (may Allah be pleased with him) pointed towards Sayyiduna Abu Musa (may Allah be pleased with him) and said: "That is my killer; you see him, he is the one who shot me." Sayyiduna Abu Musa (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "I made for him and rushed at him until I caught up with him. When he saw me, he turned his back and began to flee. I pursued him and challenged him, saying: Are you not ashamed? Can you not stand firm? Are you not an honourable Arab? So he stopped. Then he and I came face to face and we exchanged blows, and finally I killed him with my sword. Then I came back to Sayyiduna Abu Amir (may Allah be pleased with him) and said: Allah Almighty has destroyed your enemy." He said: "Pull out this arrow." I pulled it out, and yellowish water flowed from the wound. Then he instructed: "O my nephew, go to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), convey my greetings of peace to him and tell him to pray for my forgiveness." Then Sayyiduna Abu Amir (may Allah be pleased with him) appointed me as his successor, and a short while later he passed away. When I returned to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), I found him (peace and blessings be upon him) in a house, sitting on a bed woven with cords, the marks of which showed on his blessed back and sides. I told him (peace and blessings be upon him) the whole story of myself and of Sayyiduna Abu Amir (may Allah be pleased with him), and said that he had asked him (peace and blessings be upon him) to seek forgiveness for him. The narrator said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) called for water and performed ablution, then he raised both his hands and supplicated: "O Allah, forgive Ubayd Abu Amir." Then he supplicated: "O Allah, on the Day of Resurrection raise him above many of Your creation and of mankind." I said: "O Messenger of Allah, pray for me too." So the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) supplicated: "O Allah, forgive Abdullah bin Qays (Abu Musa) his sins and admit him to an honourable place." Abu Burdah (may Allah have mercy on him) said: One of these supplications was for Sayyiduna Abu Amir (may Allah be pleased with him) and the other for Sayyiduna Abu Musa (may Allah be pleased with him).
