# Sunan Abi Dawud - Jihad (Kitab Al-Jihad) *Exported from [ParallelQuran.com](https://parallelquran.com) on August 24, 2026* **5 hadith** --- ## Hadith #2512 **Book:** Jihad (Kitab Al-Jihad) | **Narrator(s):** Abdullah bin Mubarak عبد الله بن المبارك, Abdur Rahman bin Yazid bin Jabir عبد الرحمن بن يزيد بن جابر الأزدي, Sa'id bin Mnswr bin Sh'bh سعيد بن منصور بن شعبة, Uqba bin 'Amir al-Juhayni | **Grade:** Sahih AbuImran said: We went out on an expedition from Medina with the intention of (attacking) Constantinople. AbdurRahman ibn Khalid ibn al-Walid was the leader of the company. The Romans were just keeping their backs to the walls of the city. A man (suddenly) attacked the enemy. Thereupon the people said: Stop! Stop! There is no god but Allah. He is putting himself into danger. AbuAyyub said: This verse was revealed about us, the group of the Ansar (the Helpers). When Allah helped His Prophet (ﷺ) and gave Islam dominance, we said (i.e. thought): Come on! Let us stay in our property and improve it. Thereupon Allah, the Exalted, revealed, “And spend of your substance in the cause of Allah, and make not your hands contribute to (your destruction)”. To put oneself into danger means that we stay in our property and commit ourselves to its improvement, and abandon fighting (i.e. jihad). AbuImran said: AbuAyyub continued to strive in the cause of Allah until he (died and) was buried in Constantinople. *Source: [ParallelQuran](https://parallelquran.com/hadith/sunan-abi-dawud-2512/)* --- ## Hadith #3228 **Book:** Funerals (Kitab Al-Jana'iz) | **Narrator(s):** Abdur Rahman bin Yazid bin Jabir عبد الرحمن بن يزيد بن جابر الأزدي, Bsr bin 'Ubaidullah بسر بن عبيد الله الحضرمي, Ibrahim bin Musa al-Razi al-Fara' إبراهيم بن موسى الرازي الفراء, Isa bin Yonus bin Abi Ishaq عيسى بن يونس بن أبي إسحاق, Wathla bin al-'Asqa' | **Grade:** Sahih The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) as saying: It is better that one of you should sit on the live coals which burns his clothing and come in contact with his skin than that he should sit on a grave. *Source: [ParallelQuran](https://parallelquran.com/hadith/sunan-abi-dawud-3228/)* --- ## Hadith #4038 **Book:** Clothing (Kitab Al-Libas) | **Narrator(s):** Abd al-Whab bin Njd'h عبد الوهاب بن نجدة, Abdur Rahman bin Ghnm, Abdur Rahman bin Yazid bin Jabir عبد الرحمن بن يزيد بن جابر الأزدي, Atyh bin Qays al-Klaby عطية بن قيس الكلابي, Bashr bin Bakr al-Tunisi بشر بن بكر التنيسي | **Grade:** Da'if I saw a man riding on a white mule and he had a black turban of silk and wool.
