Volume 4 – 659 / 1700
SAHIH BUKHARI VOLUME 4 > BOOK 52: FIGHTING FOR THE CAUSE OF ALLAH (JIHAAD)
I called on Jabir bin ‘Abdullah Al-Ansari and said to him, “Relate to me what you have heard from
Allah’s Apostle .” He said, “I accompanied him on one of the journeys.” (Abu Aqil said, “I do not know
whether that journey was for the purpose of Jihad or ‘Umra.”) “When we were returning,” Jabir con –
tinued, “the Prophet said, ‘Whoever wants to return earlier to his family, should hurry up.’ We set off
and I was on a black red tainted camel having no defect, and the people were behind me. While I
was in that state the camel stopped suddenly (because of exhaustion). On that the Prophet said to me,
‘O Jabir, wait!’ Then he hit it once with his lash and it started moving on a fast pace. He then said,
‘Will you sell the camel?’ I replied in the affirmative when we reached Medina, and the Prophet went
to the Mosque along with his companions. I, too, went to him after tying the camel on the pavement
at the Mosque gate. Then I said to him, ‘This is your camel.’ He came out and started examining the
camel and saying, ‘The camel is ours.’ Then the Prophet sent some Awaq (i.e. an amount) of gold say –
ing, ‘Give it to Jabir.’ Then he asked, ‘Have you taken the full price (of the camel)?’ I replied in the af –
firmative. He said, ‘Both the price and the camel are for you.’ ”

Narrated Anas bin Malik:

Narrated Al-Bara:
When the Divine Inspiration: “Those of the believers who sit (at home), was revealed the Prophet
sent for Zaid (bin Thabit) who came with a shoulder-blade and wrote on it. Ibn Um-Maktum com –
plained about his blindness and on that the following revelation came: “Not equal are those believers
who sit (at home) except those who are disabled (by injury, or are blind or lame etc.) and those who
strive hard and fight in the Way of Allah with their wealth and lives).” (4.95)
Volume 4, Book 52, Number 100:
Narrated Jabir bin ‘Abdullah:
When the Prophet called the people (Sadqa, a sub-narrator, said, ‘Most probably that happened on
the day of Al-Khandaq) Az-Zubair responded to the call (i.e. to act as a reconnoiter). The Prophet)
called the people again and Az-Zubair responded to the call. The Prophet then said, “Every prophet
had a disciple and my disciple is Zubair bin Al-‘Awwam.”

SAHIH BUKHARI VOLUME 4 > BOOK 52: FIGHTING FOR THE CAUSE OF ALLAH (JIHAAD)
I saw Marwan bin Al-Hakam sitting in the Mosque. So I came forward and sat by his side. He told
us that Zaid bin Thabit had told him that Allah’s Apostle had dictated to him the Divine Verse:
“Not equal are those believers who sit (at home) and those who strive hard and fight in the Cause
of Allah with their wealth and lives.’ (4.95)
Zaid said, “Ibn-Maktum came to the Prophet while he was dictating to me that very Verse. On that
Ibn Um Maktum said, “O Allah’s Apostle! If I had power, I would surely take part in Jihad.” He was a
blind man. So Allah sent down revelation to His Apostle while his thigh was on mine and it became
so heavy for me that I feared that my thigh would be broken. Then that state of the Prophet was over
after Allah revealed “…except those who are disabled (by injury or are blind or lame etc.) (4.95)
