Sahih al-Bukhari Hadith 4064

When it was the day of Uhud, the people left the Prophet (ﷺ) while Abu Talha رضی اللہ عنہ was in front of the Prophet (ﷺ) shielding him with his leather shield. Abu Talha رضی اللہ عنہ was a skillful archer who used to shoot violently. He broke two or three arrow bows on that day. If a man carrying a quiver full of arrows passed by, the Prophet would say (to him), put (scatter) its contents for Abu Talha رضی اللہ عنہ ." The Prophet (ﷺ) would raise his head to look at the enemy, whereupon Abu Talha رضی اللہ عنہ would say, "Let my father and mother be sacrificed for you ! Do not raise your head, lest an arrow of the enemy should hit you. (Let) my neck (be struck) rather than your neck." I saw `Aisha رضی اللہ عنہا , the daughter of Abu Bakr رضی اللہ عنہا, and Um Sulaim رضی اللہ عنہا rolling up their dresses so that I saw their leg-bangles while they were carrying water skins on their backs and emptying them in the mouths of the (wounded) people. They would return to refill them and again empty them in the mouths of the (wounded) people. The sword fell from Abu Talha's hand twice or thrice (on that day).
