[4616] 79 - (...) It was narratedfrom Abû Ishâq that a man cameto Al-Barâ' and said: Did you runaway on the day of (of the battleof) Hunain, O Abû 'Umârah? Hesaid: I bear witness that theProphet of Allâh ﷺ did notretreat, but some hasty and ill-prepared young men went outand met this tribe of Hawâzin, whowere archers. They shot a volley ofarrows at them and did not miss,and the people retreated. Thenthe people started coming to theMessenger of Allâh ﷺ when AbûSufyân bin Al-Hârith was leadinghis mule, and he (ﷺ) dismountedand called upon Allâh, seeking Hishelp, and saying: "I am the Prophet and no doubtI am the son of 'Abdul-Muṭṭalib.O Allâh, send down Your help."Al-Barâ' said: By Allâh, whenthe battle grew fierce, we soughtprotection by his side, and thebrave ones among us were thosewho managed to stand by hisside.

Arabic text

79 - (1776) حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ جَنَابٍ الْمِصِّيصِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا عِيسَى بْنُ يُونُسَ، عَنْ زَكَرِيَّا، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، قَالَ: جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى الْبَرَاءِ، فَقَالَ: أَكُنْتُمْ وَلَّيْتُمْ يَوْمَ حُنَيْنٍ يَا أَبَا عُمَارَةَ؟ فَقَالَ: أَشْهَدُ عَلَى نَبِيِّ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَا وَلَّى، وَلَكِنَّهُ انْطَلَقَ أَخِفَّاءُ مِنَ النَّاسِ، وَحُسَّرٌ إِلَى هَذَا الْحَيِّ مِنْ هَوَازِنَ، وَهُمْ قَوْمٌ رُمَاةٌ، فَرَمَوْهُمْ بِرِشْقٍ مِنْ نَبْلٍ كَأَنَّهَا رِجْلٌ مِنْ جَرَادٍ، فَانْكَشَفُوا، فَأَقْبَلَ الْقَوْمُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، وَأَبُو سُفْيَانَ بْنُ الْحَارِثِ يَقُودُ بِهِ بَغْلَتَهُ، فَنَزَلَ وَدَعَا وَاسْتَنْصَرَ، وَهُوَ يَقُولُ: «أَنَا النَّبِيُّ لَا كَذِبْ، أَنَا ابْنُ عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبْ، اللهُمَّ نَزِّلْ نَصْرَكَ»، قَالَ الْبَرَاءُ: «كُنَّا وَاللهِ إِذَا احْمَرَّ الْبَأْسُ نَتَّقِي بِهِ، وَإِنَّ الشُّجَاعَ مِنَّا لَلَّذِي يُحَاذِي بِهِ، يَعْنِي النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ»
