اخبرنا احمد بن محمد بن سلمة العنزي، حدثنا عثمان بن سعيد الدارمي، حدثنا ابو سلمة موسى بن إسماعيل، حدثنا عبد الله بن المبارك، اخبرنا إسحاق بن يحيى بن طلحة، حدثني عيسى بن طلحة، عن عائشة، قالت: حدثني ابو بكر، قال: كنت في اول من فاء يوم احد وبين يدي رسول الله ﷺ رجل يقاتل عنه، واراه قال: ويحميه (2)، قال: فقلت: كن طلحة حين فاتني ما فاتني، قال: وبيني وبين المشرق رجل لا اعرفه، انا اقرب إلى رسول الله ﷺ منه، وهو يخطف السعي خطفا لا اخطفه، فدفعنا إلى رسول الله ﷺ جميعا، فإذا ابو عبيدة بن الجراح، فقال لنا رسول الله ﷺ:"عليكم بصاحبكم" يريد طلحة وقد نزف، فلم ننظر إليه، فاقبلنا على رسول الله ﷺ فارادني (3) ابو عبيدة وطلب إلي، فلم يزل حتى تركته، وكان على حلقته قد نشبت، وكره ان يزعزعها بيده فيشتكي (1) النبي ﷺ، فازم عليه بثنيته، ونهض ونزعها، وابتدرت ثنيته، فطلب إلي ولم يدعني حتى تركته، فاكار (2) على الاخرى، فصنع مثل ذلك، ونزعها وابتدرت، فكان ابو عبيدة اهتم الثنايا (3).
هذا حديث صحيح على شرط الشيخين، ولم يخرجاه.

Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) states that Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) told me: "On the day of Uhud, I was among the first to return to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). I saw that in front of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) there was a man fighting on his (peace and blessings be upon him) behalf and protecting him. I said to myself: 'Would that it be Talhah,' since the opportunity that should have been mine had already slipped from my hands. Between me and the east there was a man whom I could not recognise. I was nearer to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) than he was, but he was running so swiftly that I could not run like him. Then we both reached the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) together, and we saw that it was Abu Ubaydah bin al-Jarrah. Then the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said to us: 'Attend to your companion (Talhah),' referring to Sayyiduna Talhah, who had lost a great deal of blood. But we did not turn to him; rather we went towards the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). Abu Ubaydah demanded of me that he would pull out the iron rings, and he kept insisting until I let him. A ring of the helmet had sunk into the cheek of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and he disliked moving it with his hand lest the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) be hurt. So he gripped the ring firmly with his front tooth, pulled it and drew it out, and in doing so his own front tooth came out from the root. Then he insisted with me again and would not leave me until I let him, so he laboured in the same way on the other ring, drew it out, and his other tooth also came out. Thus Abu Ubaydah's front teeth had fallen out." This hadith is sahih (authentic) on the condition of the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim), but they did not record it.

Hadith-science notes and terminology
Technical note / Defect ('illah): (2) In manuscripts (Z), (S) and (B) it has been corrupted into "wa yahmiluhu". The correct form is what we have established from Ibn al-Mubarak's "al-Jihad" and the other sources that document the report.
(2) تحرَّف في (ز) و (ص) و (ب) إلى: ويَحملُه، وما أثبتناه من "الجهاد" لابن المبارك وغيره من مصادر تخريج الخبر.
Technical note / Defect ('illah): (3) In manuscripts (Z) and (S) it has become "maradani" (with mim in place of fa'), and in (B) "ma aradani". "Fa-aradani" means: they urged me to the matter and pressed me into it (from the expression "arada fulanan 'ala al-amr": when one presses him into it).
(3) تحرَّف في (ز) و (ص) إلى: مارادني، بالميم بدل الفاء، وفي (ب) إلى: ما أرادني. ومعنى فأرادني: راوَدَوني على الأمر وحَمَلَني عليه، من قولهم: أراد فلانًا على الأمر: إذا حمله عليه.
Technical note / Defect ('illah): (1) Our manuscripts have "fa-yashtaddu", while what is established from Ibn al-Mubarak's "al-Jihad" is more appropriate.
(1) في نسخنا الخطية: فيشتد، والمثبت من "الجهاد" لابن المبارك، وهو أوجهُ.
Technical note / Defect ('illah): (2) Manuscript (S) has "fa-adara", while what is established from (Z) and (B) means "to advance/come forward" (as in: "akara 'ala fulan": he advanced on him to strike him).
(2) في (ص): فأدار، والمثبت من (ز) و (ب) بمعنى: أقبل، ومنه: أكار على فلان يضربه: إذا أقبل.
Grading: (3) Its chain is "very weak", as explained under number (4361).
(3) إسناده ضعيف جدًّا كما تقدم بيانه برقم (4361).
Reference / Source: It is in Ibn al-Mubarak's "al-Jihad" (91). And through his route it was narrated by al-Tayalisi (6), Abu Nu'aym in "al-Hilyah" (8/174) and in "Ma'rifat al-Sahabah" (561), al-Bayhaqi in "Dala'il al-Nubuwwah" (3/263) and Ibn 'Asakir in "Tarikh Dimashq" (25/447).
وهو في "الجهاد" لابن المبارك (91)، ومن طريق ابن المبارك أخرجه الطيالسي (6)، وأبو نعيم في "الحلية" 8/ 174، وفي "معرفة الصحابة" (561)، والبيهقي في "دلائل النبوة" 3/ 263، وابن عساكر في "تاريخ دمشق" 25/ 447.
Important point: However, the wounding of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) on the day of Uhud is established, as explained at the place referred to.
على أنَّ ذكر إصابة رسول الله ﷺ يوم أحد ثابت كما تقدَّم بيانه في الموضع المحال إليه.
