Hadith 1613
حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ الْخَلَّالُ، حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ، وَالْحَجَّاجُ بْنُ مِنْهَالٍ، قَالَا : حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عِمْرَانَ الْجَوْنِيُّ، عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْمُزَنِيِّ، عَنْ مَعْقِلِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ، أَنَّ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ ، بَعَثَ النُّعْمَانَ بْنَ مُقَرِّنٍ إِلَى الْهُرْمُزَانِ ، فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ بِطُولِهِ ، فَقَالَ النُّعْمَانُ بْنُ مُقَرِّنٍ : شَهِدْتُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " فَكَانَ إِذَا لَمْ يُقَاتِلْ أَوَّلَ النَّهَارِ ، انْتَظَرَ حَتَّى تَزُولَ الشَّمْسُ وَتَهُبَّ الرِّيَاحُ وَيَنْزِلَ النَّصْرُ " ، قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى : هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ ، وَعَلْقَمَةُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ هُوَ أَخُو بَكْرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْمُزَنِيِّ .
It is narrated from Ma'qil bin Yasar (may Allah be pleased with him) that Umar bin Khattab sent Nu'man bin Muqarrin (may Allah be pleased with him) to Hormuz, then he narrated the complete hadith. Nu'man bin Muqarrin (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I was present with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) in a (certain) battle. When he did not fight at the beginning of the day, he would wait until the sun had declined, the wind began to blow, and the help of Allah descended. © Imam Tirmidhi says:

Note:
(Qatadah did not meet Nu'man bin Muqarrin radi Allahu anhu, therefore there is a break (inqita') in this chain of narration. This hadith is authentic through the next chain.)

Takhrij:
«أخرجه أبوداود، الجهاد، باب في أي وقت يستحب اللقاء، حديث:2655، والترمذي، السير، حديث:1612، 1613، والحاكم:2 /116، وأحمد:5 /444، 445، والنسائي في الكبرٰي:5 /191، حديث:8637، والبخاري، الجزية والموادعة، حديث:3160.»©
Explanation:
From this hadith, it is understood that the commencement of battle should be at dawn; if there is some delay, then one should wait until the sun has declined. However, this is in the case when the initiation of fighting is to be from the Muslims’ side.
© Hadith Narrator:
«حضرت نعمان بن مقرِّن رضی اللہ عنہ » was called Muzani due to his affiliation with the Muzainah tribe.
During the caliphates of Sayyiduna Siddiq and Faruq (radi Allahu anhuma), he was among the commanders of the army.
He migrated along with his seven other brothers.
He is the conqueror of Isfahan.
He was martyred in the Battle of Nahavand in 21 AH.
(The “ra” in “Muqrin” has a shaddah and a kasrah.
It is on the pattern of “muhaddith.”)
