English translation

2537. It was reported from Muḥammad bin 'Amr, from Abū Salamah, from Abū Hurairah, that 'Amr bin Uqaiṣh had dealt in Ribā during Jāhiliyyah, so he did not like to accept Islam without retrieving it. He came during the battle of Uḥud and said: "Where are my paternal cousins?" They replied: "At Uḥud." He said: "Where is so-and-so?" They replied: "At Uḥud." He said: "Where is so-and-so?" They replied: "At Uḥud." He then got dressed in his coat of armor, mounted his horse and proceeded towards them. When the Muslims saw him they said: "Stay away from us O 'Amr!" He said: "I have become a believer." He fought until he was wounded. He was carried to his family, injured. Sa'd bin Mu'ādḥ visited him, and said to his sister: "Ask him, why did he fight; out of partisanship for his people, or out of anger for them, or out of anger of Allāh?" He said: "Out of anger of Allāh and His Messenger." He then died, and entered Paradise, and he had not performed a single Ṣalāt for Allāh. (Hasan)

2537 - حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ، أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، " أَنْ عَمْرَو بْنَ أُقَيْشٍ، كَانَ لَهُ رِبًا فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ، فَكَرِهَ أَنْ يُسْلِمَ حَتَّى يَأْخُذَهُ، فَجَاءَ يَوْمُ أُحُدٍ، فَقَالَ: أَيْنَ بَنُو عَمِّي؟ قَالُوا بِأُحُدٍ، قَالَ: أَيْنَ فُلَانٌ؟ قَالُوا بِأُحُدٍ، قَالَ: فَأَيْنَ فُلَانٌ؟ قَالُوا: بِأُحُدٍ، فَلَبِسَ لَأْمَتَهُ وَرَكِبَ فَرَسَهُ، ثُمَّ تَوَجَّهَ قِبَلَهُمْ، فَلَمَّا رَآهُ الْمُسْلِمُونَ، قَالُوا: إِلَيْكَ عَنَّا يَا عَمْرُو، قَالَ: إِنِّي قَدْ آمَنْتُ، فَقَاتَلَ حَتَّى جُرِحَ، فَحُمِلَ إِلَى أَهْلِهِ جَرِيحًا، فَجَاءَهُ سَعْدُ بْنُ مُعَاذٍ، فَقَالَ لِأُخْتِهِ: سَلِيهِ حَمِيَّةً لِقَوْمِكَ، أَوْ غَضَبًا لَهُمْ أَمْ غَضَبًا لِلَّهِ؟ فَقَالَ: بَلْ غَضَبًا لِلَّهِ وَلِرَسُولِهِ، فَمَاتَ فَدَخَلَ الْجَنَّةَ، وَمَا صَلَّى لِلَّهِ صَلَاةً "
