Unreviewed translation. All hadiths in this collection are available in five languages. Titles and introductions may remain in Arabic.

Anas reported from Abu Talhah: ‘I raised my head on the day of Uhud and looked around. Every one of them was swaying beneath his shield from drowsiness.’ This is the meaning of Allah’s words, “Then after distress He sent down upon you a feeling of security: slumber…” (Qur’an 3:154).’ Abu ‘Isa graded this hadith hasan sahih. Another chain reports the same account from al-Zubayr, and Abu ‘Isa also graded that version hasan sahih.

  • The report interprets the sleepiness experienced during the battle of Uhud as the security described in Qur’an 3:154.
