حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ يُونُسَ، حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ، عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ عُقْبَةَ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ ـ رضى الله عنهما أَنَّهُ كَانَ عَلَى فَرَسٍ يَوْمَ لَقِيَ الْمُسْلِمُونَ، وَأَمِيرُ الْمُسْلِمِينَ يَوْمَئِذٍ خَالِدُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ، بَعَثَهُ أَبُو بَكْرٍ، فَأَخَذَهُ الْعَدُوُّ، فَلَمَّا هُزِمَ الْعَدُوُّ رَدَّ خَالِدٌ فَرَسَهُ‏.‏

Translation

Ahmad ibn Yunus narrated to us: Zuhayr narrated to us, from Musa ibn ʿUqba, from Nafiʿ, from Ibn ʿUmar (may Allah be pleased with them both), who said: He was riding a horse on the day the Muslims encountered the enemy. The commander of the Muslims that day was Khalid ibn al-Walid, whom Abu Bakr had appointed. The enemy seized the horse, but when the enemy was defeated, Khalid returned Ibn ʿUmar’s horse to him.
