Shahih Muslim - 3330

Telah menceritakan kepada kami [Abu Bakar bin Abu Syaibah] telah menceritakan kepada kami ['Affan] telah menceritakan kepada kami [Hammad bin Salamah] dari [Tsabit] dari [Anas], bahwa Rasulullah shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam mengadakan musywarah ketika sampai kepada beliau kabar mengenai kedatangan kafilah Abu Sufyan. Anas berkata, "Maka Abu Bakar berbicara, namun beliau tidak memperdulikannya, kemudian Umar angkat bicara, dan beliau pun tidak memperdulikannya, lantas Sa'd bin Ubadah berdiri sambil berkata, "Kamikah yang anda kehendaki wahai Rasulullah, demi Allah yang jiwaku berada di tangan-Nya, seandainya anda memerintahkan kami mengarungi lautan, pasti akan kami arungi, dan seandainya anda memerintahkan kami pergi ke ujung bumi, pasti kami akan pergi." Anas melanjutkan, "Kemudian Rasulullah shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam mengajak orang-orang untuk berkumpul, setelah itu mereka berangkat hingga sampai Badar. Di sana mereka bertemu dengan para pencari air untuk orang-orang Quraisy. Di antara mereka terdapat seorang budak hitam kepunyaan Bani Hajjaj, kemudian mereka mengangkapnya. Lantas para sahabat Rasulullah shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam mengintrogasinya perihal Abu Sufyan dan pasukannya. Dia menjawab, "Aku tidak tahu perihal Abu Sufyan, tetapi yang aku tahu adalah Abu Jahal, 'Utbah, Syaibah dan Umayyah bin Khalaf bersama dengan rombongan manusia (tentara)." Setiap kali ia mengatakan hal yang serupa, maka mereka memukulinya, hingga ia berkata, "Ya, aku memberitahukan kepada kalian, Abu Sufyan juga ada." Kemudian mereka membiarkan budak tersebut, tidak lama setelah itu mereka tanya kembali perihal Abu Sufyan, lalu dia menjawab, "Aku tidak tahu dimana Abu Sufyan, yang ada adalah Abu Jahal, 'Utbah, Syaibah dan Umayyah bin Khalaf bersama dengan rombongan manusia (tentara)." Setiap kali ia menjawab seperti itu, maka mereka memukuli budak tersebut." Saat itu Rasulullah shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam sedang berdiri menunaikan shalat, ketika selesai shalat dan beliau melihat peristiwa itu, beliau bersabda: "Demi jiwaku yang berada di tangan-Nya, mengapa kalian memukulnya jika dia berkata benar, dan kalian biarkan jika ia berdusta?" Selanjutnya Rasulullah shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam bersabda: "Di situlah tempat terbunuhnya si fulan -sambil menunjukkan ke tanah- di sini, dan di sini." Anas berkata, "Dan tidak satupun tempat-tempat yang di tunjukkan beliau itu berjauhan dengan tempat tewasnya orang-orang yang ditunjukkan dengan tangan Rasulullah shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam." (HR. Muslim: 3330)

It has been narrated on the authority of Anas that when (the news of) the advance of Abu Sufyan (at the head of a force) reached him. the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) held consultations with his Companions. The narrator said: Abu Bakr spoke (expressing his own views), but he (the Holy Prophet) did not pay heed to him. Then spoke 'Umar (expressing his views), but he (the Holy Prophet) did not pay heed to him (too). Then Sa'd b. 'Ubada stood up and said: Messenger of Allah, you want us (to speak). By God in Whose control is my life, if you order us to plunge our horses into the sea, we would do so. If you order us to goad our horses to the most distant place like Bark al-Ghimad, we would do so. The narrator said: Now the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) called upon the people (for the encounter). So they set out and encamped at Badr. (Soon) the water-carriers of the Quraish arrived. Among them was a black slave belonging to Banu al-Hajjaj. The Companions of the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) caught him and interrogated him about Abu Sufyan and his companions. He said: I know nothing about Abu Sufyan, but Abu Jahl, Utba, Shaiba and Umayya b. Khalaf are there. When he said this, they beat him. Then he said: All right, I will tell you about Abu Sufyan. They would stop beating him and then ask him (again) about Abu Sufyan. He would again say', I know nothing about Abu Sufyan, but Abu Jahl. 'Utba, Shaiba and Umayya b. Khalaf are there. When he said this, they beat him likewise. The Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) was standing in prayer. When he saw this he finished his prayer and said: By Allah in Whose control is my life, you beat him when he is telling you the truth, and you let him go when he tells you a lie. The narrator said: Then the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) said: This is the place where so and so would be killed. He placed his hand on the earth (saying) here and here; (and) none of them fell away from the place which the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) had indicated by placing his hand on the earth.
