حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو نُعَيْمٍ حَدَّثَنَا إِسْرَائِيلُ عَنْ مُخَارِقٍ الْأَحْمَسِيِّ عَنْ طَارِقِ بْنِ شِهَابٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ ابْنَ مَسْعُودٍ يَقُولُ لَقَدْ شَهِدْتُ مِنْ الْمِقْدَادِ بْنِ الْأَسْوَدِ قَالَ غَيْرُهُ مَشْهَدًا لَأَنْ أَكُونَ أَنَا صَاحِبَهُ أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ مِمَّا عُدِلَ بِهِ أَتَى النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَهُوَ يَدْعُو عَلَى الْمُشْرِكِينَ فَقَالَ لَا نَقُولُ لَكَ كَمَا قَالَ قَوْمُ مُوسَى اذْهَبْ أَنْتَ وَرَبُّكَ فَقَاتِلَا إِنَّا هَاهُنَا قَاعِدُونَ وَلَكِنْ نُقَاتِلُ عَنْ يَمِينِكَ وَعَنْ شِمَالِكَ وَمِنْ بَيْنِ يَدَيْكَ وَمِنْ خَلْفِكَ فَرَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَشْرَقَ وَجْهُهُ وَسَرَّهُ ذَاكَ
مسند امام احمد بن حنبل · Hadith 4070
It was narrated that Tariq bin Shihab said: I heard Ibn Mas'ood say: I was present with al- Miqdad bin al-Aswad -someone else said - during an incident which, if it were to happen to me, it would be dearer to me than anything else. He came to the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) when he was praying against the mushrikeen and said: By Allah, O Messenger of Allah, we will not say as the people of Moosa said (to Moosa), "So go you and your Lord and fight you two, we are sitting right here" [al- Ma'idah 5:24]; rather we will fight on your right and on your left, in front of you and behind you. And i saw the face of the Messenger of Allah brighten and he was pleased with that.
