حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْمَعِيلَ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا هُشَيْمٌ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سَيَّارٌ أَبُو الْحَکَمِ عَنْ جَبْرِ بْنِ عَبِيدَةَ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ وَعَدَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ غَزْوَةَ الْهِنْدِ فَإِنْ أَدْرَکْتُهَا أُنْفِقْ فِيهَا نَفْسِي وَمَالِي وَإِنْ قُتِلْتُ کُنْتُ أَفْضَلَ الشُّهَدَائِ وَإِنْ رَجَعْتُ فَأَنَا أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ الْمُحَرَّرُ
سنن نسائی · Hadith 3182
It was narrated that Abu Hurairah said: “The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم promised that we would invade India. If I live to see that I will sacrifice myself and my wealth. If I am killed, I will be one of the best of the martyrs, and if I come back, I will be Abu Hurairah Al Muharrar.” (Da‘if)
