According to Ibn Humayd--Salamah--Muhammad b. Ishaq--Husayn b. 'Abd Allah--'Ikrimah: The day of Uhud was on Saturday, halfway through Shawwal. On the following day, which was Sunday, 16 Shawwal (March 24, 625), the Messenger of God's crier called out to the people to go in pursuit of the enemy, but added that nobody was to join the force except those who had been present at the battle the day before. Jabir b. 'Abd Allah b. 'Amr b. Haram spoke to him and said, "O Messenger of God, my father left me behind to look after my seven sisters and said to me, 'My son, it is not right for me and you to leave these women without a man among them, and I am not one to give you the precedence over myself in fighting along with the Messenger of God; you must stay behind to look after your sisters.' So I stayed behind to look after them." The Messenger of God gave him permission, and he went out with him. The Messenger of God's only purpose in this expedition was to lower the morale of the enemy; by going out in pursuit of them, he wanted to give them the impression that his strength was unimpaired, and that the Muslims' casualties had not weakened their ability to engage in fighting.}} | According to Ibn Humayd--Salamah--Muhammad b.

We only want to get some (money) for you from the people of Mecca. We swear to you by God's covenant that we will not kill you." Marthad b. Abi Marthad, Khalid b. Bukayr, and 'Asim b. Thabit b. Abi al-Aglah said, "By God, we will never accept a compact or contract from a polytheist," and then fought until they were all killed. Zayd b. al-Dathinnah, Khubayb b. 'Adi, and 'Abd Allah b. Tariq, however, were soft and yielding, desiring life, and surrendered; they were made prisoners and taken to Mecca to be sold there.<br> | ||
When they got as far as al-Zahran, 'Abd Allah b. Tariq broke loose from his bonds, and seized his sword. His captors kept well back from him, but threw stones at him until they had killed him. They buried him at al-Zahran. As for Khubayb b. 'Adi and Zayd b. al-Dathinnah, their captors took them to Mecca and sold them there. Khubayb was bought by Hujayr b. Abi Ihab al-Tamimi, the confederate of the Banu Nawfal, on behalf of 'Uqbah b. al-Harith b. 'Amir b. Nawfal, Hujayr being the brother of al-Harith b. 'Amir by his mother; this was so that 'Uqbah might kill him in revenge for his father. Zayd b. al-Dathinnah was bought by Safwan b. Umayyah in order to kill him in revenge for his father, Umayyah b.
