Azami 8092

Abu Dawud (2522) narrated it from Ahmad bin Salih Misri, who said, "Yahya bin Hassan told us, Walid bin Rabah Dhamari told us, my uncle Numran bin Utba Dhamari told me," he said, "We went in to see Umm Darda while we were orphans, and she said, 'Rejoice, for I heard Abu Darda say...'" and he mentioned the hadith.Abu Dawud then said, "The correct form is Rabah bin Walid." Its chain is hasan because of Numran bin Utba, whom Ibn Hibban mentioned in al-Thiqat and included in his Sahih (4660). He is among the teachers of Hurayz bin Uthman, and all of his teachers are trustworthy.On this subject there is also a report from Umar bin Khattab, who said, "I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say, 'Martyrs are of four kinds. A believing man of sound faith who met the enemy and was true to Allah until he was killed, that is the one to whom people raise their eyes on the Day of Resurrection, like this,'" and he raised his head until his cap fell off. He said, "I do not know whether he meant Umar's cap or the Prophet's ﷺ cap." He said, "'And a believing man of sound faith who met the enemy, and it was as though his skin were struck with a switch of talh out of fear, and a stray arrow came to him and killed him, he is in the second rank. And a believing man who mixed good deeds with bad ones, who met the enemy and was true to Allah until he was killed, he is in the third rank. And a believing man who wronged himself, who met the enemy and was true to Allah until he was killed, he is in the fourth rank.'"Tirmidhi (1644) and Ahmad (146, 150) narrated it through several routes from Ibn Lahia, from Ata bin Dinar, from Abu Yazid Khawlani, that he heard Fadala bin Ubayd say, "I heard Umar bin Khattab say..." and he mentioned it.Its chain includes Abu Yazid Khawlani, the elder Egyptian, and in his biography no one is mentioned as having narrated from him except Ata bin Dinar. Dhahabi said, "He is not known," and Ibn Hajar said, "Unknown."It also includes Ibn Lahia, about whom there is well-known discussion, but this hadith was narrated from him by Abdullah bin Mubarak in al-Jihad (126), by Abdullah bin Wahb as found in Ilal Ibn Abu Hatim (1/346), and by Abdullah bin Yazid Muqri, Abu Abdul-Rahman, as found in Abu Yaala (252). The narration of the Abadila from Ibn Lahia is acceptable.Tirmidhi said, "hasan gharib, we do not know it except through the hadith of Ata bin Dinar."He said in Ilal al-Kabir (2/709), "I asked Muhammad whether this hadith was narrated by anyone other than Ibn Lahia. He said, 'Yes, Saeed bin Abu Ayub narrated it from Ata bin Dinar, except that he says, "from some elders of Khawlan," and does not say in it, "from Abu Yazid."' So I said to him, 'What is the name of Abu Yazid Khawlani?' But he did not know his name."His saying "talh" refers to a tree of the thorny acacia kind that camels graze on. His saying "a stray arrow" means one whose shooter is unknown.As for what was reported from Abu Hurairah, from the Prophet ﷺ, he said, "Martyrs were mentioned in the presence of the Prophet ﷺ, and he said, 'The earth does not dry from the blood of a martyr before his two wives rush to him, as though they were two wet-nurses who had lost the infants they were nursing in an open stretch of land, and in the hand of each of them is a garment better than this world and everything in it.'" Its chain is daif.Ibn Majah (2798) and Ahmad (7955, 9520) narrated it through Ibn Awn, that is Abdullah, from Hilal bin Abu Zaynab, from Shahr bin Hawshab, from Abu Hurairah, and he mentioned it.Its chain includes Shahr bin Hawshab, about whom there is well-known discussion, and in my view his hadith is hasan, but this particular hadith was criticized in relation to him. Ibn Awn, who is the narrator of this hadith, used to weaken it because of Shahr. Ibn Adi mentioned in Kamil (4/1355), from Amr bin Ali al-Fallas, who said, "I heard Muaz bin Muaz say, 'I asked Ibn Awn about the hadith of Hilal bin Abu Zaynab...'" and he mentioned the hadith in question, and Ibn Awn said, "What are you doing with Shahr? Shuba abandoned Shahr."Moreover, there is a clear irregularity in this hadith of his, for this meaning is not mentioned in any other report, despite how numerous the reports on the merit of the martyr and martyrdom are.As for Hilal bin Abu Zaynab, no one narrated from him except Ibn Awn, and Mizzi did not mention any of the scholars affirming his reliability, and so Ibn Hajar said, "Unknown." But it is found in the narration of Duri (4032) that Ibn Main said, "Trustworthy, only Ibn Awn narrates from him."There was then disagreement over whether the hadith is raised to the Prophet or stopped at Hilal, but Daraqutni in his Ilal (11/30) held the raised version to be correct, while others preferred the stopped version.His saying "lost the infants they were nursing" means their nurslings had gone missing from them. His saying "al-barah" refers to an open stretch of land with no crops or trees on it.
