Hadith text

Narrated `Aisha:Regarding the Holy Verse: "Those who responded (To the call) of Allah And the Apostle (Muhammad), After being wounded, For those of them Who did good deeds And refrained from wrong, there is a great reward." (3.172) She said to `Urwa, "O my nephew! Your father, Az-Zubair and Abu Bakr were amongst them (i.e. those who responded to the call of Allah and the Apostle on the day (of the battle of Uhud). When Allah's Messenger (ﷺ), suffered what he suffered on the day of Uhud and the pagans left, the Prophet (ﷺ) was afraid that they might return. So he said, 'Who will go on their (i.e. pagans') track?' He then selected seventy men from amongst them (for this purpose)." (The sub-narrator added, "Abu Bakr and Az-Zubair were amongst them)

Ayesha bataati hain: Is paak Ayat ke baare mein: "Woh log jinhone Allah aur uske Rasool ki pukar ka jawab diya, zakhmi hone ke baad, un logon ke liye jinhone neik amal kiye aur bachte rahe (buraee se), bahut bada ajr hai." (3:172) Unhone Urwa se kaha, "Aye mere bhatije! Aapke waalid, Az-Zubair, aur Abu Bakr un logon mein the (jinhone Allah aur Rasool ki pukar ka jawab diya Uhud ki jung ke din). Jab Allah ke Rasool ne jo kuch Uhud ki jung ke din jhela aur mushrik chale gaye, Nabi ko dar tha ke woh wapas aa sakte hain. Isliye unhone kaha, 'Kaun unke (yaani mushrikon ke) picha karega?' Unhone phir unmein se sattar logon ko is maksad ke liye chuna." (Doosre raawi ne joda, "Abu Bakr aur Az-Zubair unmein se the.")
