Sahih al-Bukhari 2893

It is related from Anas ibn Malik, "The Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said to Abu Talha, Look out one of your boys to serve me when I go out to Khaybar.' Abu Talha brought me out riding behind him. At that time I was a boy who was near puberty. I would serve the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, when he alighted. I would often hear him say, 'O Allah, I seek refuge with you from care and sorrow, incapacity and laziness, miserliness and cowardice, the burden of debt and being overcome by men.' Then we came to Khaybar and when Allah let him conquer the fortress, the beauty of Safiyya bint Huyayy ibn Akhtab was mentioned to him. Her husband had been killed and she was a bride. The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, chose her for himself and went with her until we reached Sadd ar-Sahba' where she became lawful and he went to her in marriage. Then some hays was put on a small leather mat. Then the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, 'Announce it to those around you.' That was the marriage-feast of the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, with Safiyya. Then we left for Madina." He said, "I saw the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, enfolding her behind him in his cloak. Then he sat beside his camel and put his knee up and Safiyya put her foot on his knee to mount. We travelled until when we were looking over Madina, he looked at Uhud and said, 'This is a mopuntain which loves us and we love it.' Then he looked at Madina and said, O Allah, I make inviolable what is between its two lava beds as Ibrahim made Makka inviolable. O Allah, bless them in their sa' and mudd.'"
