Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ يَزِيدَ حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ عَنْ ثَابِتٍ عَنْ أَنَسٍ قَالَ انْطَلَقَ حَارِثَةُ بْنُ سُرَاقَةَ نَظَّارًا مَا انْطَلَقَ لِلْقِتَالِ فَأَصَابَهُ سَهْمٌ فَقَتَلَهُ فَجَاءَتْ أُمُّهُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَتْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ابْنِي حَارِثَةُ إِنْ يَكُ فِي الْجَنَّةِ أَصْبِرْ وَأَحْتَسِبْ فَقَالَ يَا أُمَّ حَارِثَةَ إِنَّهَا جِنَانٌ كَثِيرَةٌ وَإِنَّ حَارِثَةَ فِي الْفِرْدَوْسِ الْأَعْلَى.
English Translation
Abdullah ibn Yazid told us: Sulayman told us, from Thabit, from Anas, who said: Haritha ibn Suraqa went out merely as a spectator, not intending to fight, and an arrow struck him and killed him. His mother came to the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, and said: O Messenger of Allah, my son Haritha - if he is in Paradise I will be patient and seek my reward with Allah, but if not you will see what I do. He said: O mother of Haritha, there are many gardens in Paradise, and Haritha is in the highest Firdaws.
