[4700] 150 - (1817) It was narrated that 'Aishah, the wife of the Prophet ﷺ, said: "The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ set out for Badr, and when he was in Harrat Al-Wabarah, he was met by a man who was known for his courage and valor. The Companions of the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ rejoiced when they saw him, but when he caught up with him he said to the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ: 'I have come so that I may join you and get a share (of the spoils of war) with you.' The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said to him: 'Will you believe in Allâh and His Messenger?' He said: 'No.' He said: 'Then go back, for I will never seek the help of an idolater.'" She said: "He went away, then when we were in Ash-Shajarah, the man met him and said the same as he had said the first time, and the Prophet ﷺ said the same as he had said; he said: 'Go back, for I will never seek the help of an idolater.' Then he came back and met him in Al-Baidâ', and he said what he had said to him the first time: 'Will you believe in Allâh and His Messenger?' He said: 'Yes.' The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said to him: 'Then come with us.'"

150 - (1817) حَدَّثَنِي زُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ مَهْدِيٍّ، عَنْ مَالِكٍ، ح وَحَدَّثَنِيهِ أَبُو الطَّاهِرِ، وَاللَّفْظُ لَهُ، حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ وَهْبٍ، عَنْ مَالِكِ بْنِ أَنَسٍ، عَنِ الْفُضَيْلِ بْنِ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ نِيَارٍ الْأَسْلَمِيِّ، عَنْ عُرْوَةَ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّهَا قَالَتْ: خَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قِبَلَ بَدْرٍ، فَلَمَّا كَانَ بِحَرَّةِ الْوَبَرَةِ أَدْرَكَهُ رَجُلٌ قَدْ كَانَ يُذْكَرُ مِنْهُ جُرْأَةٌ وَنَجْدَةٌ، فَفَرِحَ أَصْحَابُ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حِينَ رَأَوْهُ، فَلَمَّا أَدْرَكَهُ قَالَ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: جِئْتُ لِأَتَّبِعَكَ ، وَأُصِيبَ مَعَكَ، قَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «تُؤْمِنُ بِاللهِ وَرَسُولِهِ؟» قَالَ: لَا، قَالَ: «فَارْجِعْ، فَلَنْ أَسْتَعِينَ بِمُشْرِكٍ»، قَالَتْ: ثُمَّ مَضَى حَتَّى إِذَا كُنَّا بِالشَّجَرَةِ أَدْرَكَهُ الرَّجُلُ، فَقَالَ لَهُ كَمَا قَالَ أَوَّلَ مَرَّةٍ، فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَمَا قَالَ أَوَّلَ مَرَّةٍ، قَالَ: «فَارْجِعْ، فَلَنْ أَسْتَعِينَ بِمُشْرِكٍ»، قَالَ: ثُمَّ رَجَعَ فَأَدْرَكَهُ بِالْبَيْدَاءِ، فَقَالَ لَهُ كَمَا قَالَ أَوَّلَ مَرَّةٍ: «تُؤْمِنُ بِاللهِ وَرَسُولِهِ؟» قَالَ: نَعَمْ، فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «فَانْطَلِقْ»
