Chapter 57 · Fighting for the Cause of Allah (Jihaad)كِتَابَةِ الإِمَامِ النَّاسَ
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ ، عَنْ الْأَعْمَشِ ، عَنْ أَبِي وَائِلٍ ، عَنْ حُذَيْفَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ ، قَالَ : قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : اكْتُبُوا لِي مَنْ تَلَفَّظَ بِالْإِسْلَامِ مِنَ النَّاسِ فَكَتَبْنَا لَهُ أَلْفًا وَخَمْسَ مِائَةِ رَجُلٍ فَقُلْنَا نَخَافُ وَنَحْنُ أَلْفٌ وَخَمْسُ مِائَةٍ ، فَلَقَدْ رَأَيْتُنَا ابْتُلِينَا حَتَّى إِنَّ الرَّجُلَ لَيُصَلِّي وَحْدَهُ وَهُوَ خَائِفٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدَانُ ، عَنْ أَبِي حَمْزَةَ ، عَنْ الْأَعْمَشِ فَوَجَدْنَاهُمْ خَمْسَ مِائَةٍ ، قَالَ أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ : مَا بَيْنَ سِتِّ مِائَةٍ إِلَى سَبْعِ مِائَةٍ.

The listing of the people by the Imam
The Prophet (ﷺ) said (to us), " List the names of those people who have announced that they are Muslims." So, we listed one thousand and five hundred men. Then we wondered, "Should we be afraid (of infidels) although we are one thousand and five hundred in number?" No doubt, we witnessed ourselves being afflicted with such bad trials that one would have to offer the prayer alone in fear. Narrated Al-A`mash: We (listed the Muslims and) found them five hundred. And Abu Mu'awiya said, Between six-hundred to seven-hundred.
