(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا
هَاشِمُ بْنُ الْقَاسِمِ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا
عِكْرِمَةُ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا
إِيَاسُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ بْنِ الْأَكْوَعِ ، عَنْ
أَبِيهِ ، قَالَ : بَعَثَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَبَا بَكْرٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ إِلَى فَزَارَةَ ، وَخَرَجْتُ مَعَهُ ، حَتَّى إِذَا دَنَوْنَا مِنَ الْمَاءِ عَرَّسَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ ، حَتَّى إِذَا صَلَّيْنَا الصُّبْحَ ، أَمَرَنَا فَشَنَنَّا الْغَارَةَ ، فَوَرَدْنَا الْمَاءَ ، فَقَتَلَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ مَنْ قَتَلَ وَنَحْنُ مَعَهُ ، قَالَ سَلَمَةُ : فَرَأَيْتُ عُنُقًا مِنَ النَّاسِ فِيهِمْ الذَّرَارِيُّ ، فَخَشِيتُ أَنْ يَسْبِقُونِي إِلَى الْجَبَلِ ، فَأَدْرَكْتُهُمْ ، فَرَمَيْتُ بِسَهْمٍ بَيْنَهُمْ وَبَيْنَ الْجَبَلِ ، فَلَمَّا رَأَوْا السَّهْمَ قَامُوا ، فَإِذَا امْرَأَةٌ مِنْ فَزَارَةَ عَلَيْهَا قَشْعٌ مِنْ أَدَمٍ مَعَهَا ابْنَةٌ مِنْ أَحْسَنِ الْعَرَبِ ، فَجِئْتُ أَسُوقُهُنَّ إِلَى أَبِي بَكْرٍ ، فَنَفَّلَنِي أَبُو بَكْرٍ ابْنَتَهَا ، فَلَمْ أَكْشِفْ لَهَا ثَوْبًا حَتَّى قَدِمْتُ الْمَدِينَةَ ، ثُمَّ بَاتَتْ عِنْدِي ، فَلَمْ أَكْشِفْ لَهَا ثَوْبًا حَتَّى لَقِيَنِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي السُّوقِ ، فَقَالَ : " يَا سَلَمَةُ ، هَبْ لِي الْمَرْأَةَ " ، قَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، لَقَدْ أَعْجَبَتْنِي ، وَمَا كَشَفْتُ لَهَا ثَوْبًا ، قَالَ : فَسَكَتَ حَتَّى إِذَا كَانَ الْغَدُ ، لَقِيَنِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي السُّوقِ ، وَلَمْ أَكْشِفْ لَهَا ثَوْبًا ، فَقَالَ : " يَا سَلَمَةُ ، هَبْ لِي الْمَرْأَةَ ، لِلَّهِ أَبُوكَ " ، قَالَ : قُلْتُ : هِيَ لَكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، قَالَ : فَبَعَثَ بِهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِلَى أَهْلِ مَكَّةَ ، فَفَدَى بِهَا أُسَرَاءَ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ كَانُوا فِي أَيْدِي الْمُشْرِكِينَ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Salamah bin Akwa’ (may Allah be pleased with him) that once we set out with Sayyiduna Siddiq Akbar, whom the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had appointed as our leader. We were going to fight against Banu Fazarah. When we reached a place near water, Sayyiduna Siddiq Akbar ordered us and we camped there. After offering the Fajr prayer, he commanded us to attack the enemy, and we fell upon them and killed many people near that stream. Suddenly, I saw a swift group heading towards the mountain, among whom were women and children. I set off after them, but then I feared that they might reach the mountain before me, so I shot an arrow towards them, which landed between them and the mountain. Then I drove them towards Sayyiduna Siddiq Akbar and brought them to him near that stream. Among them was a woman from Banu Fazarah who was wearing a leather cloak, and with her was her daughter, who was one of the most beautiful girls among the Arabs. Sayyiduna Siddiq Akbar gave that daughter to me as a reward. I did not even lift her veil until we reached Madinah Munawwarah. Even when night fell, I did not lift her veil. The next day, I met the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) in the marketplace. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to me, “Salamah! Give me that woman as a gift.” I replied, “O Messenger of Allah! She is dear to me, and I have not even lifted her veil yet.” Upon hearing this, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) remained silent and left me. The next day, I again met the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) in the marketplace, and he repeated his request and made me swear by my father. I swore and said, “O Messenger of Allah! She is dear to me, and I have not even lifted her veil yet. But O Messenger of Allah! Now I give her to you.” The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) sent that girl to the people of Makkah, in whose custody were many Muslim prisoners. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) offered that girl in exchange for ransom and thus freed the prisoners.
