مُسْنَدُ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ
Three-Narrator Ahadith 27
Jābir (رضي الله عنه) reported:
“On the day of the Battle of the Trench (al-Khandaq), the Messenger of Allāh (ﷺ) called for a volunteer, and al-Zubayr came forward. He called again, and al-Zubayr came forward. He called a third time, and al-Zubayr came forward. The Messenger of Allāh (ﷺ) then said: ‘Every prophet has a ḥawārī [devoted helper and disciple], and my ḥawārī is al-Zubayr.’” Sufyān added: “I heard Ibn al-Munkadir narrate this in this very mosque.”

Musnad Aḥmad 27
حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنِ ابْنِ الْمُنْكَدِرِ، سَمِعَ جَابِرًا يَقُولُ: نَدَبَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ النَّاسَ يَوْمَ الْخَنْدَقِ، فَانْتَدَبَ الزُّبَيْرُ، ثُمَّ نَدَبَ النَّاسَ، فَانْتَدَبَ الزُّبَيْرُ، ثُمَّ نَدَبَ النَّاسَ، فَانْتَدَبَ الزُّبَيْرُ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «إِنَّ لِكُلِّ نَبِيٍّ حَوَارِيًّا، وَحَوَارِيَّ الزُّبَيْرُ.» قَالَ سُفْيَانُ: سَمِعْتُ ابْنَ الْمُنْكَدِرِ فِي هَذَا الْمَسْجِدِ.

Isnād and Rijāl: Imām Aḥmad ← Sufyān ibn ʿUyayna ← Muḥammad ibn al-Munkadir ← Jābir ibn ʿAbdillāh (same chain as Ḥadīth 23). Sufyān ibn ʿUyayna: thiqah ḥāfiẓ faqīh imām. Muḥammad ibn al-Munkadir: thiqah fāḍil. Jābir ibn ʿAbdillāh: Companion. Takhrīj: al-Bukhārī, nos. 2846, 3719; Muslim, no. 2415; al-Tirmidhī, no. 3745. Al-Zubayr ibn al-ʿAwwām (d. 36 AH) was a cousin of the Prophet (ﷺ) through his mother Ṣafiyya bint ʿAbd al-Muṭṭalib, the Prophet’s paternal aunt. He embraced Islam at approximately fifteen years of age and participated in all the major battles of early Islam. He is among the ten companions given the explicit glad tidings of Paradise during their lifetimes. The word ḥawārī originally meant the loyal disciples of Prophet ʿĪsā (Jesus, عليه السلام) and here is used metaphorically to denote the closest and most devoted supporter.
