حَدَّثَنَا يُوسُفُ بْنُ مُوسَى، حَدَّثَنَا عَاصِمُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ الْيَرْبُوعِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو إِسْحَاقَ الْفَزَارِيُّ، عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ عُقْبَةَ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي سَالِمٌ أَبُو النَّضْرِ، مَوْلَى عُمَرَ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ كُنْتُ كَاتِبًا لَهُ قَالَ كَتَبَ إِلَيْهِ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ أَبِي أَوْفَى حِينَ خَرَجَ إِلَى الْحَرُورِيَّةِ فَقَرَأْتُهُ فَإِذَا فِيهِ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فِي بَعْضِ أَيَّامِهِ الَّتِي لَقِيَ فِيهَا الْعَدُوَّ انْتَظَرَ حَتَّى مَالَتِ الشَّمْسُ. ثُمَّ قَامَ فِي النَّاسِ فَقَالَ " أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ لاَ تَمَنَّوْا لِقَاءَ الْعَدُوِّ وَسَلُوا اللَّهَ الْعَافِيَةَ، فَإِذَا لَقِيتُمُوهُمْ فَاصْبِرُوا وَاعْلَمُوا أَنَّ الْجَنَّةَ تَحْتَ ظِلاَلِ السُّيُوفِ ـ ثُمَّ قَالَ ـ اللَّهُمَّ مُنْزِلَ الْكِتَابِ وَمُجْرِيَ السَّحَابِ وَهَازِمَ الأَحْزَابِ اهْزِمْهُمْ وَانْصُرْنَا عَلَيْهِمْ ". وَقَالَ مُوسَى بْنُ عُقْبَةَ حَدَّثَنِي سَالِم أَبُو النَّضْرِ كُنْتُ كَاتِبًا لِعُمَرَ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ فَأَتَاهُ كِتَابُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي أَوْفَى ـ رضى الله عنهما أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ " لاَ تَمَنَّوْا لِقَاءَ الْعَدُو ".
Yusuf ibn Musa narrated to us; 'Asim ibn Yusuf al-Yarbu'i narrated to us; Abu Ishaq al-Fazari narrated to us from Musa ibn 'Uqba, who said: Salim Abu al-Nadr, the freedman of 'Umar ibn 'Ubayd Allah, informed me—he was 'Umar's clerk—and said: 'Abdullah ibn Abi Awfa wrote to him when he went out against al-Haruriyya. I read it, and it said that on one of the days when the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) met the enemy, he waited until the sun had begun to decline. Then he stood among the people and said, ‘O people, do not wish to meet the enemy. Ask Allah for well-being. When you meet them, be steadfast, and know that Paradise is beneath the shadows of swords.’ Then he said, ‘O Allah, Revealer of the Book, Mover of the clouds, Defeater of the confederates, defeat them and grant us victory over them.’ Musa ibn 'Uqba also said: Salim Abu al-Nadr informed me, while I was 'Umar ibn 'Ubayd Allah's clerk, that 'Umar received a letter from 'Abdullah ibn Abi Awfa (may Allah be pleased with them both) saying that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, ‘Do not wish to meet the enemy.’
