Arabic text

١٥٩٨ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌وَاصِلُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْأَعْلَى ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ عَيَّاشٍ ، عَنْ ‌أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، عَنِ ‌الْبَرَاءِ قَالَ «كُنَّا نَتَحَدَّثُ أَنَّ أَصْحَابَ بَدْرٍ» يَوْمَ بَدْرٍ كَعِدَّةِ أَصْحَابِ طَالُوتَ ثَلَاثُ مِائَةٍ وَثَلَاثَةَ عَشَرَ رَجُلًا وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ. وَقَدْ رَوَاهُ الثَّوْرِيُّ وَغَيْرُهُ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ.

Commentary

Companions of Tālūt means those honest and brave persons who crossed the canal and faced the enemy and stood by Tālūt. They were three hundred and thirteen, and those who participated in the battle of Badr were three hundred and thirteen. By some other counts they were three hundred and fourteen or three hundred and seventeen or three hundred and nineteen.
