It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Waqid al-Laythi (may Allah be pleased with him): We were in a vanguard of two hundred horsemen whose commander was Sayyiduna Zayd bin al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him). Ahead of us were Sayyiduna Thabit bin Aqram and Sayyiduna Ukkashah bin Mihsan (may Allah be pleased with them both). When we passed by the two of them, they had been martyred, which greatly grieved us, Khalid bin al-Walid and the Muslims coming behind us. We stopped by them, and on the order of Khalid bin al-Walid a grave was dug for them, and we buried them with their blood. Mention of the virtues of Sayyiduna Ma'n bin Adi bin al-Ajlan al-Ansari (may Allah be pleased with him):

Ibn Ishaq relates that Sayyiduna Ma'n bin Adi (may Allah be pleased with him) was an ally from the Bali tribe. He took part in the Pledge of Aqabah, and he participated in the battles of Badr, Uhud, al-Khandaq and all the battles with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). He was martyred in the Battle of Yamamah during the caliphate of Sayyiduna Abu Bakr al-Siddiq (may Allah be pleased with him).
