English translation
4906. Narrated Mūsā bin ‘Uqba : ‘Abdullāh bin Al-Faḍl told me that Anas bin Mālik said, “I was much grieved over those who had been killed in the battle of Al-Ḥarra.” When Zaid bin Arqam heard of my intense grief (over the killed Anṣār), he wrote a letter to me saying that he heard Allāh’s Messenger ﷺ saying, ‘O Allāh! Forgive the Anṣār and the children of Anṣār.’ The subnarrator, Ibn Al-Faḍl, is not sure whether the Prophet ﷺ also said, “And their grand-children.” Some of those who were present, asked Anas (about Zaid). He said, “He (Zaid) is the one about whom Allāh’s Messenger ﷺ said, ‘He is the one whose (sound) hearing was testified by Allāh’.”
