Sahih al-Bukhari 6628 (Book 87, Hadith 22)
day of Uhud, “O Allah’s worshippers! Beware of what is behind you!” So the front file of the army
attacked the back files (mistaking them for the enemy) till they killed Al-Yaman. Hudhaifa (bin Al-
Yaman) shouted, “My father!” My father! But they killed him. Hudhaifa said, “May Allah forgive
you.” (The narrator added: Some of the defeated pagans fled till they reached Taif.)
