عربی (اصل)
حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ نُمَيْرٍ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ يَقُولُ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَوْلَا أَنْ أَشُقَّ عَلَى أُمَّتِي أَوْ عَلَى النَّاسِ لَأَحْبَبْتُ أَنْ لَا أَتَخَلَّفَ خَلْفَ سَرِيَّةٍ تَخْرُجُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ وَلَكِنْ لَا أَجِدُ مَا أَحْمِلُهُمْ عَلَيْهِ وَلَا يَجِدُونَ مَا يَتَحَمَّلُونَ عَلَيْهِ فَيَخْرُجُونَ فَوَدِدْتُ أَنْ أُقَاتِلَ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ فَأُقْتَلَ ثُمَّ أُحْيَا ثُمَّ أُقْتَلَ ثُمَّ أُحْيَا ثُمَّ أُقْتَلَ.

Ibn Numayr told us: Yahya told us, from Abu Salih, that he heard Abu Hurayrah say: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Were it not that I would burden my nation, or the people, I would have loved never to remain behind any expedition setting out in the path of Allah; but I do not find mounts for them, nor do they find that upon which they may be carried, so they go forth without me. I would love to fight in the path of Allah and be killed, then be brought back to life, then be killed, then be brought back to life, then be killed."
