THE CLOUD OF ANGELS:
A non-combatant from the tribe of Ghifar later told ibn Abbas that during the
battle he and his cousin had positioned themselves at the top of the hill
overlooking the battle field with the intention of looting once the battle was over.
As they looked down upon the battle, a white cloud approached the hill, and in it
they heard the whinnying of horses and a voice saying: 'Onwards, Hayzum!" As
for the man's cousin, it was too much for him and his head burst open and he
died. The narrator himself, told ibn Abbas that he too almost die from absolute
terror.
THE MARTYRED:
Fourteen believers were martyred that day; six from the Muhajir and eight from
the Ansar. Among their ranks was Umair, the young brother of Sa'd who pleaded
with the Prophet to let him accompany them.
When the time came to bury the martyrs, the Prophet ordered that their bodies
should not receive the customary washing because on the Day of Resurrection
