Baab Ma Ja'a Fi Qaulihi Lir-Rajul: Daraba [Allahu] 'Unuqahu Fi Sabeelillah, Fa Qutila Ar-Rajul Fi Sabeelillah

It was narrated to us by Abu Ahmad Abdullah ibn Muhammad ibn al-Hasan al-Mihrajani, who told us that Abu Bakr Muhammad ibn Ja'far al-Muzakki informed us, who narrated to us Muhammad ibn Ibrahim, who narrated to us Ibn Bukayr, who narrated to us Malik, from Zaid ibn Aslam, from Jabir ibn Abdullah, who said: “We went out with the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, on the expedition of Bani Anmar. He mentioned the story of the man who had two garments that were well worn, and he had two others in better condition. The Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, commanded him to wear the two worn-out garments, and then he turned to leave. The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said: 'Has he not struck his neck for the sake of Allah? Is this not better?' The man heard this and said: 'O Messenger of Allah, in the way of Allah.' The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said: 'In the way of Allah, the Almighty.' And so, the man was killed in the way of Allah."
