حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ أَبِي زِيَادٍ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي لَيْلَى عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ كُنَّا فِي سَرِيَّةٍ فَفَرَرْنَا فَأَرَدْنَا أَنْ نَرْكَبَ الْبَحْرَ ثُمَّ أَتَيْنَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقُلْنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ نَحْنُ الْفَرَّارُونَ فَقَالَ لَا بَلْ أَنْتُمْ أَوْ أَنْتُمْ الْعَكَّارُونَ
مسند امام احمد بن حنبل · Hadith 5591
It was narrated that Ibn 'Umar said: We were on an expedition and we fled (the battlefield), and we thought of going to sea. Then we came to the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) and said: O Messenger of Allah (PBUH), we are the ones who ran away. He said; "No; rather you are the ones who are regrouping.”
