Hadith 2937
Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) delivered a sermon and said, "Zaid received the flag and was martyred, then Ja`far
took it and was martyred, then `Abdullah bin Rawaha took it and was martyred, and then Khalid bin
Al-Walid took it without being appointed, and Allah gave him victory." The Prophet (ﷺ) added, "I am not
pleased (or they will not be pleased) that they should remain (alive) with us," while his eyes were
shedding tears.
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 56, Hadith 268

as follows in Hadith 297.
Narrated Abu Huraira:
We were in the company of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) in a Ghazwa, and he remarked about a man who claimed
to be a Muslim, saying, "This (man) is from the people of the (Hell) Fire." When the battle started, the
man fought violently till he got wounded. Somebody said, "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! The man whom you
described as being from the people of the (Hell) Fire fought violently today and died." The Prophet (ﷺ)
said, "He will go to the (Hell) Fire." Some people were on the point of doubting (the truth of what the
Prophet had said) while they were in this state, suddenly someone said that he was still alive but
severely wounded. When night fell, he lost patience and committed suicide. The Prophet (ﷺ) was
informed of that, and he said, "Allah is Greater! I testify that I am Allah's Slave and His Apostle."
Then he ordered Bilal to announce amongst the people: 'None will enter Paradise but a Muslim, and
Allah may support this religion (i.e. Islam) even with a disobedient man.' Sahih al-Bukhari Book 56, Hadith 267

The people of the tribes of Ril, Dhakwan, 'Usiya and Bani Lihyan came
to the Prophet (ﷺ) and claimed that they had embraced Islam, and they
requested him to support them with some men to fight their own people.
The Prophet (ﷺ) supported them with seventy men from the Ansar whom we
used to call Al-Qurra'(i.e. Scholars) who (out of piety) used to cut
wood during the day and pray all the night. So, those people took the
(seventy) men till they reached a place called Bi'r-Ma'ana where they
betrayed and martyred them. So, the Prophet (ﷺ) invoked evil on the tribe
of Ril, Dhakwan and Bani Lihyan for one month in the prayer.
Narrated Qatada: Anas told us that they (i.e. Muslims) used to recite
a Quranic Verse concerning those martyrs which was:-- "O Allah! Let
our people be informed on our behalf that we have met our Lord Who has
got pleased with us and made us pleased." Then the Verse was
cancelled. Sahih al-Bukhari Book 56, Hadith 269
