Arabic hadith text

حَدَّثَنَا فَرْوَةُ بْنُ أَبِي الْمَغْرَاءِ، حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُسْهِرٍ، عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ـ رضى الله عنها ـ قَالَتْ هُزِمَ الْمُشْرِكُونَ يَوْمَ أُحُدٍ هَزِيمَةً تُعْرَفُ فِيهِمْ، فَصَرَخَ إِبْلِيسُ أَىْ عِبَادَ اللَّهِ أُخْرَاكُمْ، فَرَجَعَتْ أُولاَهُمْ فَاجْتَلَدَتْ هِيَ وَأُخْرَاهُمْ، فَنَظَرَ حُذَيْفَةُ بْنُ الْيَمَانِ فَإِذَا هُوَ بِأَبِيهِ فَقَالَ أَبِي أَبِي‏.‏ قَالَتْ فَوَاللَّهِ مَا انْحَجَزُوا حَتَّى قَتَلُوهُ ، فَقَالَ حُذَيْفَةُ غَفَرَ اللَّهُ لَكُمْ‏.‏ قَالَ عُرْوَةُ فَوَاللَّهِ مَا زَالَتْ فِي حُذَيْفَةَ مِنْهَا بَقِيَّةٌ حَتَّى لَقِيَ اللَّهَ‏.‏

Translation

Farwah ibn Abi al-Maghra narrated to us; Ali ibn Mushir narrated to us, from Hisham ibn Urwah, from his father, from Aishah, may Allah be pleased with her, who said: On the day of Uhud, the polytheists were clearly routed. Then Iblis shouted, ‘Servants of Allah, beware of those behind you!’ The front ranks turned back and fought with their rear ranks. Hudhayfah ibn al-Yaman looked and saw his father. He shouted, ‘My father! My father!’ By Allah, they did not stop until they had killed him. Hudhayfah said, ‘May Allah forgive you.’ Urwah said: By Allah, Hudhayfah continued to feel the effects of that incident until he met Allah.
