Hadith 5.2

Jihad

ENGLISH

Salama b. al-Akwa‘ said:

We went on an expedition with Abu Bakr in the time of the Prophet. We attacked the enemy by night and killed them, and our war-cry that night was “Put to death; put to death.” Abu Dawud transmitted it.

ARABIC

وَعَنْ سَلَمَةَ بْنِ الْأَكْوَعِ قَالَ: غَزَوْنَا مَعَ أبي بكر زمن النَّبِي صلى الله عَلَيْهِ وَسلم فبيَّتْناهُم نَقْتُلُهُمْ وَكَانَ شِعَارُنَا تِلْكَ اللَّيْلَةَ: أَمِتْ أَمِتْ. رَوَاهُ أَبُو دَاوُد
