Sahih Muslim Book - 33, Hadith - 4863

وَحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رَافِعٍ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ حَدَّثَنَا مَعْمَرٌ عَنْ هَمَّامِ بْنِ مُنَبِّهٍ قَالَ هَذَا مَا حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- فَذَكَرَ أَحَادِيثَ مِنْهَا وَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- « كُلُّ كَلْمٍ يُكْلَمُهُ الْمُسْلِمُ فِى سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ ثُمَّ تَكُونُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ كَهَيْئَتِهَا إِذَا طُعِنَتْ تَفَجَّرُ دَمًا اللَّوْنُ لَوْنُ دَمٍ وَالْعَرْفُ عَرْفُ الْمِسْكِ ». وَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- « وَالَّذِى نَفْسُ مُحَمَّدٍ فِى يَدِهِ لَوْلاَ أَنْ أَشُقَّ عَلَى الْمُؤْمِنِينَ مَا قَعَدْتُ خَلْفَ سَرِيَّةٍ تَغْزُو فِى سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ وَلَكِنْ لاَ أَجِدُ سَعَةً فَأَحْمِلَهُمْ وَلاَ يَجِدُونَ سَعَةً فَيَتَّبِعُونِى وَلاَ تَطِيبُ أَنْفُسُهُمْ أَنْ يَقْعُدُوا بَعْدِى ».

It was narrated that Hammam bin Munabbih said: "This is what Abu Hurairah narrated to us from the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w)." - and he mentioned a number of Ahadith including the following: "The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) said: 'Every wound that a Muslim sustains in the cause of Allah, on the Day of Resurrection it will be in the same condition as on the day it was received, flowing with blood; the color will be the color of blood but the smell will be the fragrance of musk.' And the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) said: 'By the One in Whose Hand is the soul of Muhammad, were it not that I would cause hardship for the believers, I would not have stayed behind from any expedition that fought in the cause of Allah, but I do not have sufficient means to provide mounts for them, nor do they have sufficient means to join me, and they would not like to stay behind without me."'
