Hadith text

Narrated Ibn `Aun:Once Musa bin Anas while describing the battle of Yamama, said, "Anas bin Malik went to Thabit bin Qais, who had lifted his clothes from his thighs and was applying Hunut to his body. Anas asked, 'O Uncle! What is holding you back (from the battle)?' He replied, 'O my nephew! I am coming just now,' and went on perfuming himself with Hunut, then he came and sat (in the row). Anas then mentioned that the people fled from the battle-field. On that Thabit said, 'Clear the way for me to fight the enemy. We would never do so (i.e. flee) in the company of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ). How bad the habits you have acquired from your enemies

Ibn Aun bataate hain: Ek baar Musa bin Anas ne Yamama ki jung ka zikar karte huye kaha: "Anas bin Malik Thabit bin Qais ke paas gaye, jinhone apne kapde apni raanon se uthaye hue the aur apne jism par Hunut (khushbudaar cheez) lagaa rahe the. Anas ne pucha, 'Aye chacha! Aapko kya rok raha hai (jung mein jaane se)?' Unhone jawab diya, 'Aye mere bhatije! Main abhi aata hoon,' aur Hunut lagate rahe, phir aakar (safon mein) baith gaye. Anas ne phir bataya ke log jung ke maidan se bhaag gaye. Isspar Thabit ne kaha, 'Mujhe raasta do dushman se jung karne ke liye. Hum Allah ke Rasool ki sohbat mein kabhi aisa (yaani bhaagna) nahi karte the. Kitni buri aadaten tumne apne dushmanon se seekhi hain.'"
