حَدَّثَنَا حَدَّثَنَا
وَكِيعٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا
سُفْيَانُ ، عَنْ
مُخَارِقِ بْنِ خَلِيفَةَ الْأَحْمَسِيِّ ، عَنْ
طَارِقٍ أَنَّ الْمِقْدَادَ ، قَالَ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَوْمَ بَدْرٍ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ،
إِنَّا لَا نَقُولُ لَكَ كَمَا قَالَتْ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ لِمُوسَى : اذْهَبْ أَنْتَ وَرَبُّكَ فَقَاتِلَا إِنَّا هَاهُنَا قَاعِدُونَ وَلَكِنْ اذْهَبْ أَنْتَ وَرَبُّكَ فَقَاتِلَاَ ، إِنَّا مَعَكُمْ مُقَاتِلُونَ " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Tariq (may Allah be pleased with him) that on the occasion of the Battle of Badr, Hazrat Miqdad (may Allah be pleased with him) submitted in the presence of the Messenger of Allah, "O Messenger of Allah! We will not say as the Children of Israel said to Hazrat Musa, 'You and your Lord go and fight, we are sitting here.' Rather, we say, 'You and your Lord go and fight, we too are with you in the battle.'"
