حَدَّثَنَا نَصْرُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ الْجَهْضَمِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا الْمُعْتَمِرُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ الأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ عَطِيَّةَ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ، قَالَ لَمَّا كَانَ يَوْمُ بَدْرٍ ظَهَرَتِ الرُّومُ عَلَى فَارِسَ فَأَعْجَبَ ذَلِكَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ فَنَزَلَتْ : ( الم *غَلَبَتِ الرُّومُ ) إِلَى قَوْلِهِ : (يفْرَحُ الْمُؤْمِنُونَ بِنَصْرِ اللَّهِ ) قَالَ فَفَرِحَ الْمُؤْمِنُونَ بِظُهُورِ الرُّومِ عَلَى فَارِسَ . قَالَ هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ مِنْ هَذَا الْوَجْهِ كَذَا قَرَأَ نَصْرُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ : (غَلَبَتِ الرُّومُ ) .

‘Atiyyah reported from Abu Sa‘id: ‘On the day of Badr, the Romans prevailed over the Persians, and the believers were pleased. Then these verses were revealed: “Alif Lam Mim. The Romans have been defeated…” through “On that day the believers will rejoice in Allah’s victory” (Qur’an 30:1–5). The believers rejoiced at the Romans’ victory over the Persians.’
Abu ‘Isa said: This is a hasan gharib report through this route. Nadr ibn ‘Ali recited the verse as “the Romans have prevailed.”
Notes and open questions — unreviewed
Preserved the account’s dating of the Roman victory to the day of Badr and its reported verse recitation, without harmonizing the chronology.
