English translation

[305] 178 - (111) It was narrated that Abū Hurairah said: "We were present at (the battle of) Hunain with the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ, and he said of a man who claimed to be a Muslim: 'This is one of the people of the Fire.' When the fighting began, that man fought fiercely, then he was wounded and it was said: 'O Messenger of Allāh, the man of whom you said that he is one of the people of the Fire fought fiercely today, and he has died.' The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: 'To the Fire.' Some of the Muslims could hardly believe it,[1] and while they were like that, it was said: 'He has not died, but he is badly wounded.' That night, he could no longer bear the pain, so he killed himself. The Prophet ﷺ was informed of that and he said: 'Allāhu Akbar! I bear witness that I am the Allāh's slave and His Messenger.' Then he ordered Bilāl to call out to the people: 'No one will enter Paradise but a Muslim soul, and Allāh will support this religion even by means of an evildoer.'"

Arabic text

178 - (111) وَحَدَّثَنَا مُحمَّدُ بْنُ رافعٍ، وعبْدُ بْنُ حُميْدٍ، جميعًا عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّزَّاقِ، قَالَ ابْنُ رافعٍ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنِ ابْنِ الْمُسَيِّبِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ: شَهِدْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حُنَيْنًا، فَقَالَ لِرَجُلٍ مِمَّنْ يُدْعَى بِالْإِسْلَامِ: «هَذَا مِنْ أَهْلِ النَّارِ»، فَلَمَّا حَضَرْنَا الْقِتَالَ قَاتَلَ الرَّجُلُ قِتَالًا شَدِيدًا، فَأَصَابَتْهُ جِرَاحَةٌ، فَقِيلَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، الرَّجُلُ الَّذي قُلْتَ لَهُ آنِفًا: «إِنَّهُ مِنْ أَهْلِ النَّارِ» فَإِنَّهُ قَاتَلَ الْيَوْمَ قِتَالًا شَدِيدًا، وَقَدْ مَاتَ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «إِلَى النَّارِ»، فَكَادَ بَعْضُ الْمُسْلِمِينَ أَنْ يَرْتَابَ، فَبَيْنَمَا هُمْ عَلَى ذَلِكَ إِذْ قِيلَ: إِنَّهُ لَمْ يَمُتْ، وَلَكِنَّ بِهِ جِرَاحًا شَدِيدًا، فَلَمَّا كَانَ مِنَ اللَّيْلِ لَمْ يَصْبِرْ عَلَى الْجِرَاحِ، فَقَتَلَ نَفْسَهُ، فَأُخْبِرَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِذَلِكَ، فَقَالَ: «اللهُ أَكْبُرُ، أَشْهَدُ أَنِّي عَبْدُ اللهِ وَرَسُولُهُ»، ثُمَّ أَمَرَ بِلَالًا فَنَادَى فِي النَّاسِ: «أَنَّهُ لَا يَدْخُلُ الْجَنَّةَ إِلَّا نَفْسٌ مُسْلِمَةٌ، وَأَنَّ اللهَ يُؤَيِّدُ هَذَا الدِّينَ بِالرَّجُلِ الْفَاجِرِ»
