حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، حَدَّثَنَا قَيْسٌ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ سَعْدًا، يَقُولُ إِنِّي لأَوَّلُ الْعَرَبِ رَمَى بِسَهْمٍ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ، وَرَأَيْتُنَا نَغْزُو، وَمَا لَنَا طَعَامٌ إِلاَّ وَرَقُ الْحُبْلَةِ وَهَذَا السَّمُرُ، وَإِنَّ أَحَدَنَا لَيَضَعُ كَمَا تَضَعُ الشَّاةُ، مَا لَهُ خِلْطٌ، ثُمَّ أَصْبَحَتْ بَنُو أَسَدٍ تُعَزِّرُنِي عَلَى الإِسْلاَمِ، خِبْتُ إِذًا وَضَلَّ سَعْيِي.

Narrator: Sa`d

English translation
Narrated Sa`d: I was the first man among the Arabs to throw an arrow for Allah's Cause. We used to fight in Allah's Cause while we had nothing to eat except the leaves of the Hubla and the Sumur trees (desert trees) so that we discharged excrement like that of sheep (i.e. unmixed droppings). Today the (people of the) tribe of Bani Asad teach me the laws of Islam. If so, then I am lost, and all my efforts of that hard time had gone in vain
বাংলা অনুবাদ
কায়স (রহ.) বর্ণনা করেন, আমি সা‘দ ইবনু আবূ ওয়াক্কাস (রাঃ)-কে বলতে শুনেছি যে, আমিই সর্বপ্রথম আরব যে আল্লাহর পথে তীর নিক্ষেপ করেছে। যুদ্ধের সময় আমাদের অবস্থা দেখেছি যে হুবলা পাতা ও ঝাউগাছ ব্যতীত খাবারের কিছুই ছিল না। আমাদের মল বকরির মলের মত হয়ে গিয়েছিল। যা ছিল সম্পূর্ণ শুক্নো। আর এখন আবার বনূ আসাদ এসে ইসলামের উপর চলার জন্য আমাকে তিরস্কার করছে। এখন আমি শংকিত যে আমার পূর্বেকার চেষ্টা সাধনা ব্যর্থ হয়ে গেল।[মুসলিম পর্ব ৫৩/হাঃ ২৯৬৬, আহমাদ ১৪৯৮] (আধুনিক প্রকাশনী- ৬০০৩, ইসলামিক ফাউন্ডেশন)
