Chapter 33: The Book ofJihadand Expeditions
This tradition has been narrated by Hishim through the same chain of transmitters with a little difference in the wording. He said: (His wound) began to bleed that very night and it continued to bleed until he died. He has made the addition that it was then that (a non-believing) poet said:
Hark, O Sa' d, Sa' d of Banu Mu' adh,
What have the Quraiaa and Nadir done?
By thy life! Sa' d b. Mu' adh>br> Was steadfast on the morn they departed.
You have left your cooking-pot empty,
While the cooking-pot of the people is hot and boiling.
Abu Hubab the nobleman has said,
O Qainuqa', do not depart.
They were weighty in their country
just aa rocks are weighty in Maitan.
Sahih Muslim 1769d
