Hadith 91

Muslim

الخامس‏:‏ عن أنس رضي الله عنه، أن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم أخذ سيفاً يوم أحد فقال‏:‏ ‏"‏ من يأخذ مني هذا‏؟‏ فبسطوا أيديهم، كل إنسان منهم يقول‏:‏ أنا أنا‏.‏ قال‏:‏ ‏"‏فمن يأخذه بحقه‏؟‏‏"‏ فأحجم القوم، فقال أبو دجانة رضي الله عنه‏:‏ أنا آخذه بحقه، فأخذه ففلق به هام المشركين‏.‏ ‏(‏‏(‏رواه مسلم‏)‏‏)‏‏.‏

Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) took up a sword on the day of the battle of Uhud and said, "Who will take this sword from me?" Everyone stretched forth his hand saying: "I will take it; I will take it". He (the Prophet (ﷺ)) said, "Who will take it with its full responsibility (i.e., to use it to fight Allah's enemies with it)?" The Companions hesitated. Abu Dujanah (May Allah be pleased with him) said: "I shall take it;" and with it he cracked the skulls of the pagans. [Muslim].
