Sahih al-Bukhari 463 (Book 8, Hadith 111) #455
Caring for the Injured in Battle

SUMMARY: The Prophet (ﷺ) pitched a tent in the mosque to look after Sa'd bin Mu'ad who was injured in the battle of the Trench and later died due to his wound.

Narrated 'Aisha: On the day of Al-Khandaq (battle of the Trench' the medial arm vein of Sa'd bin Mu'ad ? was injured and the Prophet pitched a tent in the mosque to look after him. There was another tent for Banu Ghaffar in the mosque and the blood started flowing from Sa'd's tent to the tent of Bani Ghaffar. They shouted, "O occupants of the tent! What is coming from you to us?" They found that Sa'd' wound was bleeding profusely and Sa'd died in his tent.
حَدَّثَنَا زَكَرِيَّاءُ بْنُ يَحْيَى، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ نُمَيْرٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامٌ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ أُصِيبَ سَعْدٌ يَوْمَ الْخَنْدَقِ فِي الأَكْحَلِ، فَضَرَبَ النَّبِيُّ خَيْمَةً فِي الْمَسْجِدِ لِيَعُودَهُ مِنْ قَرِيبٍ، فَلَمْ يَرُعْهُمْ ـ وَفِي الْمَسْجِدِ خَيْمَةٌ مِنْ بَنِي غِفَارٍ ـ إِلاَّ الدَّمُ يَسِيلُ إِلَيْهِمْ فَقَالُوا يَا أَهْلَ الْخَيْمَةِ، مَا هَذَا الَّذِي يَأْتِينَا مِنْ قِبَلِكُمْ فَإِذَا سَعْدٌ يَغْذُو جُرْحُهُ دَمًا، فَمَاتَ فِيهَا‏.‏

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about how Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) showed care and compassion for those injured during battle. He set up a tent in the mosque to look after Sa'd bin Mu'ad who was injured during Al-Khandaq or The Trench. Unfortunately, he passed away due to his injury but it is clear that Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) did all he could do to help him recover. This hadith teaches us that we should always show kindness and care towards those who are hurt or ill, regardless of whether they are family members or strangers. We should also be willing to go out of our way if necessary, just as Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) did when he set up a tent in the mosque for Sa'd bin Mu'ad's recovery.
