that the Final Hour had already dawned, the people had been gathered together, and ahead stood a place—whoever crossed it would be saved, yet a barrier blocked the way. Then someone said to me, “Do you wish to be delivered while you still hold what you have?” I awoke in fright.

100 – Khuzayma ibn Thabit ibn al-Fakih al-Ansari (M, 4)
The son of Thaʿlaba ibn Saʿida, a jurist; Abu ʿAmara al-Ansari, of the Banu Khatma, a Medinan Companion, famed as Dhū al-Shahādatayn (the man whose single testimony counts as two).

Some claimed he fought at Badr, but the sound view is that he was present at Uhud and every engagement thereafter.

He related several hadiths.

He was among the senior figures in ʿAli’s army and was martyred with him on the day of Ṣiffīn.

Those who transmitted from him include his son ʿUmāra, Abu ʿAbd Allah al-Jadali, ʿAmr ibn Maymūn al-Awdī, Ibrāhīm ibn Saʿd ibn Abi Waqqāṣ, and others.

He was killed—may Allah be pleased with him—in the year 37 AH while bearing the banner of the Banū Khatma.

He also took part in the expedition of Muʾta.

بنُ مُغَفَّلٍ ﵁ أَنَّ السَّاعَةَ قَدْ قَامَتْ، وَأَنَّ النَّاسَ حُشِرُوا، وَثَمَّ مَكَانٌ، مَنْ جَازَهُ فَقَدْ نَجَا، وَعَلَيْهِ عَارِضٌ، فَقَالَ لِي قَائِلٌ: أَترِيْدُ أَنْ تَنْجُوَ وَعِنْدَكَ مَا عِنْدَكَ؟ فَاسْتَيْقَظْتُ فَزِعاً. قَالَ: فَأَيْقَظَ أَهْلَهُ، وَعِنْدَهُ عَيْبَةٌ مَمْلُوْءةٌ دَنَانِيْرَ، فَفَرَّقَهَا كُلَّهَا. كُنْيَتُهُ: أَبُو سَعِيْدٍ. وَقِيْلَ: أَبُو زِيَادٍ. ١٠٠ - خُزَيْمَةُ بنُ ثَابِتِ بنِ الفَاكِهِ الأَنْصَارِيُّ * (م، ٤) ابْنِ ثَعْلَبَةَ بنِ سَاعِدَةَ الفَقِيْهُ، أَبُو عُمَارَةَ الأَنْصَارِيُّ، الخَطْمِيُّ، المَدَنِيُّ، ذُوْ الشَّهَادَتَيْنِ. قِيْلَ: إِنَّهُ بَدْرِيٌّ، وَالصَّوَابُ: أَنَّهُ شَهِدَ أُحُداً وَمَا بَعْدَهَا. وَلَهُ أَحَادِيْثُ. وَكَانَ مِنْ كِبَارِ جَيْشِ عَلِيٍّ، فَاسْتُشْهِدَ مَعَهُ يَوْمَ صِفِّيْنَ. حَدَّثَ عَنْهُ: ابْنُهُ؛ عُمَارَةُ، وَأَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الجَدَلِيُّ، وَعَمْرُو بنُ مَيْمُوْنٍ الأَوْدِيُّ، وَإِبْرَاهِيْمُ بنُ سَعْدِ بنِ أَبِي وَقَّاصٍ؛ وَجَمَاعَةٌ. قُتِلَ ﵁: سَنَةَ سَبْعِ وَثَلاَثِيْنَ، وَكَانَ حَامِلَ رَايَةِ بَنِي خَطْمَةَ. وَشَهِدَ مُؤْتَةَ.
