Bayhaqi 18442 — Sending out scouts and vanguards from the Muslims

أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، أنبأ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ، وَأَبُو الْفَضْلِ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَالَا: ثنا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، ثنا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، أنبأ جَرِيرٌ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ التَّيْمِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ: كُنَّا عِنْدَ حُذَيْفَةَ بْنِ الْيَمَانِ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ: لَوْ أَدْرَكْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَاتَلْتُ مَعَهُ أَوْ أَبْلَيْتُ. فَقَالَ لَهُ حُذَيْفَةُ: أَنْتَ كُنْتَ تَفْعَلُ ذَاكَ؟ لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَيْلَةَ الْأَحْزَابِ فِي لَيْلَةٍ ذَاتِ رِيحٍ شَدِيدَةٍ وَقَرٍّ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " أَلَا رَجُلٌ يَأْتِينِي بِخَبَرِ الْقَوْمِ يَكُونُ مَعِي يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ؟ " فَلَمْ يُجِبْهُ مِنَّا أَحَدٌ، ثُمَّ الثَّانِيَةَ مِثْلَهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ: " يَا حُذَيْفَةُ قُمْ فَأْتِنَا بِخَبَرِ الْقَوْمِ "، فَلَمْ أَجِدْ بُدًّا إِذْ دَعَانِي بِاسْمِي أَنْ أَقُومَ، فَقَالَ: " ائْتِنِي بِخَبَرِ الْقَوْمِ وَلَا تُذْعِرْهُمْ عَلَيَّ ". قَالَ: فَمَضَيْتُ كَأَنَّمَا أَمْشِي فِي حَمَّامٍ حَتَّى أَتَيْتُهُمْ، فَإِذَا أَبُو سُفْيَانَ يُصْلِي ظَهْرَهُ بِالنَّارِ، فَوَضَعْتُ سَهْمِي فِي كَبِدِ قَوْسِي وَأَرَدْتُ أَنْ أَرْمِيَهُ، ثُمَّ ذَكَرْتُ قَوْلَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " لَا تُذْعِرْهُمْ عَلَيَّ "، وَلَوْ رَمَيْتُ لَأَصَبْتُهُ قَالَ: فَرَجَعْتُ كَأَنَّمَا أَمْشِي فِي حَمَّامٍ فَأَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ثُمَّ أَصَابَنِي الْبَرْدُ حِينَ فَرَغْتُ وَقُرِرْتُ فَأَخْبَرْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَأَلْبَسَنِي رَسُولُ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِنْ فَضْلِ عَبَاءَةٍ كَانَتْ عَلَيْهِ يُصَلِّي فِيهَا، فَلَمْ أَزَلْ نَائِمًا حَتَّى الصُّبْحِ فَلَمَّا أَنْ أَصْبَحْتُ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " قُمْ يَا نَوْمَانُ ". رَوَاهُ مُسْلِمٌ فِي الصَّحِيحِ عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ.
Ibrahim al-Taymi narrates from his father: We were with Hudhayfah bin al-Yaman (may Allah be pleased with them both). A man said: If I had found the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), I would have worn myself out fighting alongside him (peace and blessings be upon him). Hudhayfah (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: Would you have done that? We were with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) on one of the nights of the Battle of al-Ahzab, a night of fierce wind and cold, and the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Is there a man who will bring me news of the people? He will be with me on the Day of Resurrection." None of us answered him. Then he said the same a second time, and then said: "O Hudhayfah, bring us news of the people." Now I had no choice, since he (peace and blessings be upon him) had called me by name to stand up. He said: "Bring news of the people, and do not alert them about me." He says: I went as though I were walking calmly. When I came near Abu Sufyan, he was warming his back at the fire. I placed my arrow in my bow and intended to shoot him, then I remembered the words of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), that he (peace and blessings be upon him) had said: "Do not stir them up against me." Had I shot him, I could have killed him. He says: I came back as though I were walking in warmth. When I came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), I then felt the cold, once I had finished my task. I informed him (peace and blessings be upon him), and he (peace and blessings be upon him) put the spare part of his cloak over me, and I remained asleep until morning. When morning came, he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Get up, O heavy sleeper!"
