مُسْنَدُ عُمَيْرٍ مَوْلَى آبِي اللَّحْمِ الْغِفَارِيِّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ
Three-Narrator Ahadith 326
ʿUmayr, the freed slave of Ābī al-Laḥm al-Ghifārī (may Allah be pleased with him), reported:
I witnessed [the conquest of] Khaybar together with my masters, and they spoke to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ about me, so he gave me permission [to take part]. I was girded with a sword, and found myself dragging it along [behind me, being so young]. When he was informed that I was a slave, he ordered that I be given a small portion of the goods. Reference: Musnad Aḥmad 326
حَدَّثَنَا بِشْرُ بْنُ الْمُفَضَّلِ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ زَيْدٍ، حَدَّثَنِي عُمَيْرٌ، مَوْلَى آبِي اللَّحْمِ، قَالَ: شَهِدْتُ خَيْبَرَ مَعَ سَادَتِي، فَكَلَّمُوا فِيَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ «فَأَمَرَنِي فَقُلِّدْتُ سَيْفًا، فَإِذَا أَنَا أَجُرُّهُ، فَأُخْبِرَ أَنِّي مَمْلُوكٌ فَأَمَرَ لِي بِشَيْءٍ مِنْ خُرْثِيِّ الْمَتَاعِ
