English translation

3290. Narrated 'Āishah رضي الله عنها: On the day (of the battle) of Uhud when Al-Mushrikūn were defeated, Satan shouted, "O slaves of Allāh! Beware of the forces at your back," and on that the Muslims of the front files fought with the Muslims of the back files (thinking they were Al-Mushrikūn). Ḥudhaifa looked back to see his father Al-Yamān, (being attacked by the Muslims). He shouted, "O Allāh's slaves! My father! My father!" By Allāh, they did not stop till they killed him. Ḥudhaifa said, "May Allāh forgive you." 'Urwa said that Ḥudhaifa continued invoking good (invoking Allāh to forgive the killer of his father) till he met Allāh (i.e., died).

3290 - حَدَّثَنَا زَكَرِيَّاءُ بْنُ يَحْيَى، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ، قَالَ: هِشَامٌ أَخْبَرَنَا، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا، قَالَتْ: " لَمَّا كَانَ يَوْمَ أُحُدٍ هُزِمَ المُشْرِكُونَ، فَصَاحَ إِبْلِيسُ: أَيْ عِبَادَ اللَّهِ أُخْرَاكُمْ، فَرَجَعَتْ أُولاَهُمْ فَاجْتَلَدَتْ هِيَ وَأُخْرَاهُمْ، فَنَظَرَ حُذَيْفَةُ فَإِذَا هُوَ بِأَبِيهِ اليَمَانِ، فَقَالَ: أَيْ عِبَادَ اللَّهِ أَبِي أَبِي، فَوَاللَّهِ مَا احْتَجَزُوا حَتَّى قَتَلُوهُ، فَقَالَ: حُذَيْفَةُ غَفَرَ اللَّهُ لَكُمْ، قَالَ عُرْوَةُ فَمَا زَالَتْ فِي حُذَيْفَةَ مِنْهُ بَقِيَّةُ خَيْرٍ حَتَّى لَحِقَ بِاللَّهِ "
