عبد الله بن أحمد بن نوح البلخي

Aḥmad ibn Muḥammad ibn Saʿīd al-Hamdānī informed us. He said: ʿAbd Allāh ibn Aḥmad ibn Nūḥ al-Balkhī related to us. He said: My father related to us. He said: Khārija related to us, from Abū Ḥanīfa, from ʿAlqama ibn Marthad, from Ibn Burayda, from his father, who said: Whenever the Messenger of God, God bless him and grant him peace, appointed a commander or dispatched a raiding party, he enjoined its commander to fear God and to care for the Muslims with him.
