حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ عِيسَى، وَأَسْوَدُ بْنُ عَامِرٍ قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا شَرِيكٌ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ أَبِي زِيَادٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي لَيْلَى، عَنْ ابْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ: بَعَثَنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي سَرِيَّةٍ، فَلَمَّا لَقِينَا الْعَدُوَّ انْهَزَمْنَا فِي أَوَّلِ عَادِيَةٍ (٢) ، فَقَدِمْنَا الْمَدِينَةَ فِي نَفَرٍ لَيْلًا فَاخْتَفَيْنَا (٣) ، ثُمَّ قُلْنَا: لَوْ خَرَجْنَا إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، وَاعْتَذَرْنَا إِلَيْهِ، فَخَرَجْنَا (٤) ، فَلَمَّا لَقِينَاهُ قُلْنَا: نَحْنُ الْفَرَّارُونَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ قَالَ: " بَلْ أَنْتُمُ الْعَكَّارُونَ، وَأَنَا فِئَتُكُمْ " قَالَ أَسْوَدُ بْنُ عَامِرٍ: " وَأَنَا فِئَةُ كُلِّ مُسْلِمٍ " (٥)، ،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that once the Prophet (ﷺ) sent us on a military expedition. When we encountered the enemy, we fled at the very first stage and returned to Madinah at night with some people and went into hiding. Then we thought that we should go to the Prophet (ﷺ) and present our excuse to him. So we went to the service of the Prophet (ﷺ) and met him. We said: O Messenger of Allah! We are those who fled and ran away. The Prophet (ﷺ) said: "No, rather you are those who turn back and attack. I am a group among you, and I am a whole group among the Muslims. I am a group among you, and I am a whole group among the Muslims."
