English translation

4209. Narrated Salama رضي الله عنه 'Ali remained behind the Prophet ﷺ during the Ghazwā of Khaibar as he was suffering from eye trouble. He then said, " (How can) I remain behind the Prophet ﷺ," so he followed him. So when it was the (preceding) night of the conquest of Khaibar, the Prophet ﷺ said, "I will give the flag tomorrow," or said "tomorrow the flag will be taken by a man who is loved by Allāh and His Messenger, and (Khaibar) will be conquered through him, (with Allāh's Help)". While everyone of us was hopeful to have the flag, it was said, "Here is 'Ali", and the Prophet ﷺ gave him the flag and Khaibar was conquered through him (with Allāh's Help).

4209 - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مَسْلَمَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا حَاتِمٌ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ أَبِي عُبَيْدٍ، عَنْ سَلَمَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ، قَالَ: كَانَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ، تَخَلَّفَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي خَيْبَرَ، وَكَانَ رَمِدًا، فَقَالَ: أَنَا أَتَخَلَّفُ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَلَحِقَ بِهِ، فَلَمَّا بِتْنَا اللَّيْلَةَ الَّتِي فُتِحَتْ قَالَ: «لَأُعْطِيَنَّ الرَّايَةَ غَدًا أَوْ لَيَأْخُذَنَّ الرَّايَةَ غَدًا رَجُلٌ يُحِبُّهُ اللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُ، يُفْتَحُ عَلَيْهِ» فَنَحْنُ نَرْجُوهَا، فَقِيلَ: هَذَا عَلِيٌّ فَأَعْطَاهُ، فَفُتِحَ عَلَيْهِ
