Shahih Muslim - 3376

Telah menceritakan kepada kami [Abdullah bin Abdurrahman Ad Darimi] telah menceritakan kepada kami [Abdullah bin 'Amru] -yaitu Abu Ma'mar Al Minqari- telah menceritakan kepada kami [Abdul Warits] telah menceritakan kepada kami [Abdul Aziz] -yaitu Ibnu Shuhaib- dari [Anas bin Malik] dia berkata, "Ketika perang Uhud berkecamuk, beberapa orang dari pasukan Islam lari meninggalkan Nabi shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam, sedangkan Abu Thalhah adalah seorang pamanah yang terampil. Pada hari itu, dia sampai mematahkan dua atau tiga busur panah." Anas mengatakan, "Saat itu ada seseorang yang lewat di hadapan temannya dengan membawa panah, maka temanya berkata, "Berikanlah itu kepada Abu Thalhah!" Anas melanjutkan, "Nabi shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam sendiri berdiri tegak memperhatikan seluruh pasukan. Lalu Abu Thalhah berkata, "Wahai Nabi Allah, demi ayah dan ibuku sebagai tebusannya, aku memohon anda tidak berdiri tegak supaya tidak terkena panah musuh, biarlah leherku yang terkena asal bukan leher anda." Kata Anas selanjutnya, "Sungguh, aku melihat 'Aisyah binti Abu Bakar dan Ummu Sulaim, keduanya menyingsingkan pakainnya sehingga terlihat olehku gelang kakinya, keduanya membawa geribah di punggung mereka, kemudian dituangkannya di mulut kaum Muslimin. Sesudah itu mereka pergi lagi mengisi geribah mereka dan datang lagi untuk menuangkannya ke mulut anggota pasukan. Seusai pertempuran, pedang Abu Thalhah sampai terjatuh dua hingga tiga kali karena sangat mengantuknya." (HR. Muslim: 3376)

It has been narrated on the authority of Anas b. Malik who said: On the Day of Ubud some of the people, being defeated, left the Holy Prophet (may peace he upon him), but Abu Talha stood before him covering him with a shield. Abu Talha was a powerful archer who broke two or three bows that day. When a man would pass by carrying a quiver containing arrows, he would say: Spare them for Abu Talha. Whenever the Holy Prophet (way peace be upon him) raised his head to look at the people, Abd Talba would say: Prophet of Allah, may my father and my mother be thy ransom, do not raise your head lest you be struck by an arrow shot by the enemy. My neck is before your neck. The narrator said: I saw A'isha bint Abu Bakr and Umm Sulaim. Both of them had tucked up their garments, so I could me the anklets on their feet. They were carrying water-skins on their backs and would pour water into the mouths of the people. They would then go back (to the well), would fill them again and would return to pour water into the mouths of the soldiers. (On this day). Abu Talha's sword dropped down from his hands twice or thrice because of drowsiness. (Muslim: 3376)
