In the Battle of Muâtah, Abdullah Ibn. Rawaahah (R) was
the third of the Commanders after Zaid and Jaâfar. Ibn
Rawaahah (R) stood up just before the army was about to
leave Madinah and recited:
I truly ask the Most Beneficientâs forgiveness
and a mortal stroke of a sword
that will strike me down
foaming or a mortal stab
with a spear by a stubborn disbeliever
that will make my liver and intestine
show out of my body. So that
when people pass by my grave,
they will say: By Allah, you are
the most righteous warrior.
Abdullah Ibn.
Rawaahah (R)
