The Book of Jihad
Obligation of Jihad
وَعَنْ أَبِي عمرو ويقال: أَبُو حكيم النعمان بْن مقرن رَضِيَ اللَّه عَنْهُ قَالَ: شَهِدْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّه عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذَا لَمْ يُقَاتِلْ مِنْ أَوَّلِ النَّهَارِ أَخَّرَ الْقِتَالَ حَتَّى تَزُولَ الشَّمْسُ وَتَهُبَّ الريح وينزِلَ النَّصرُ. ((رَوَاهُ أَبُو دَاوُد، وَالتِّرْمِذِيّ، وَقَالَ: حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ)).
An-Nu'man bin Muqarrin (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: I was with the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) when I witnessed that if he did not begin fighting in the early part of the day, he would postpone fighting till the sun had declined, the blowing of the breeze had blown and the victory from Allah had come. [Abu Dawud and At-Tirmidhi].
