Narrated Kharija bin Zaid:
Zaid bin Thabit said, “When the Quran was compiled from various written manuscripts, one of the
Verses of Surat Al-Ahzab was missing which I used to hear Allah’s Apostle reciting. I could not find it
except with Khuzaima bin Thabjt Al-Ansari, whose witness Allah’s Apostle regarded as equal to the
witness of two men. And the Verse was:– “Among the believers are men who have been true to what
they covenanted with Allah.” (33.23)

SAHIH BUKHARI VOLUME 4 > BOOK 52: FIGHTING FOR THE CAUSE OF ALLAH (JIHAAD)
I went to Allah’s Apostle while he was at Khaibar after it had fallen in the Muslims’ hands. I said,
“O Allah’s Apostle! Give me a share (from the land of Khaibar).”
One of the sons of Sa’id bin Al-‘As said, “O Allah’s Apostle! Do not give him a share.” I said, “This is
the murderer of Ibn Qauqal.” The son of Said bin Al-As said, “Strange! A Wabr (i.e. guinea pig) who
has come down to us from the mountain of Qaduim (i.e. grazing place of sheep) blames me for
killing a Muslim who was given superiority by Allah because of me, and Allah did not disgrace me at
his hands (i.e. was not killed as an infidel).” (The sub-narrator said “I do not know whether the
Prophet gave him a share or not.”)
Volume 4, Book 52, Number 63:
Narrated Al-Bara:
A man whose face was covered with an iron mask (i.e. clad in armor) came to the Prophet and
said, “O Allah’s Apostle! Shall I fight or embrace Islam first? “The Prophet said, “Embrace Islam first
and then fight.” So he embraced Islam, and was martyred. Allah’s Apostle said, A Little work, but a
great reward. “(He did very little (after embracing Islam), but he will be rewarded in abundance).”

Badr with an arrow thrown by an unidentified person. She added, “If he is in Paradise, I will be pa –
