أَخْبَرَنِي النَّضْرُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ الْبَلْخِيُّ عَنْ أَبِي حَمْزَةَ الثُّمَالِيِّ عَنْ شَهْرِ بْنِ  حَوْشَبٍ قَالَ قَالَ لِيَ الْحَجَّاجُ وَ سَأَلَنِي عَنْ خُرُوجِ النَّبِيِّ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) إِلَى مَشَاهِدِهِ فَقُلْتُ شَهِدَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) بَدْراً فِي ثَلَاثِمِائَةٍ وَ ثَلَاثَةَ عَشَرَ وَ شَهِدَ أُحُداً فِي سِتِّمِائَةٍ وَ شَهِدَ الْخَنْدَقَ فِي تِسْعِمِائَةٍ فَقَالَ عَمَّنْ قُلْتُ عَنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ ( عليه السلام ) فَقَالَ ضَلَّ وَ اللَّهِ مَنْ سَلَكَ غَيْرَ سَبِيلِهِ


Translation

Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, and Ali Bin Muhammad, from Al Qasim Bin Muhammad, from Suleyman Bin Dawood Al Minqary, from Ismail Al Balkhy, from Abu Hamza Al Sumaly, from Shahr Bin Howshab who said, ‘Al-Hajjaj said to me and asked me about the going out of the Prophet<sup>saww</sup> to his<sup>saww</sup> overseeing it (the battles), so I said, ‘Rasool-Allah<sup>saww</sup> oversaw (the battle of) Badr among three hundred and thirteen (combatants), and oversaw (the battle of) Ohad among six hundred (combatants), and oversaw (the battle of) Khandaq among nine hundred (combatants)’. He said, ‘From whom are you saying it, from Ja’far<sup>asws</sup> Bin Muhammad<sup>asws</sup>?’ So I said, ‘Strayed is the one, by Allah<sup>azwj</sup>, who walks upon other than his<sup>asws</sup> way’.
