حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو سَعِيدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَقِيلٍ يَعْنِي بَشِيرَ بْنَ عُقْبَةَ الدَّوْرَقِيَّ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْمُتَوَكِّلِ النَّاجِيُّ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ، قَالَ: سَافَرْتُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي بَعْضِ أَسْفَارِهِ - وَأَحْسِبُهُ قَالَ: غَازِيًا - فَلَمَّا أَقْبَلْنَا قَافِلِينَ قَالَ: " مَنْ أَحَبَّ أَنْ يَتَعَجَّلَ فَلْيَتَعَجَّلْ "، وَأَنَا عَلَى جَمَلٍ أَرْمَكَ لَيْسَ فِي الْجُنْدِ مِثْلُهُ، فَانْدَفَعْتُ عَلَيْهِ، فَإِذَا النَّاسُ خَلْفِي فَبَيْنَا أَنَا كَذَلِكَ، ، إِذْ قَامَ جَمَلِي، فَجَعَلَ لَا يَتَحَرَّكُ، فَإِذَا صَوْتُ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ: " مَا شَأْنُ جَمَلِكَ يَا جَابِرُ؟ " قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، لَا أَدْرِي مَا عَرَضَ لَهُ، قَالَ: " اسْتَمْسِكْ، وَأَعْطِنِي السَّوْطَ " فَأَعْطَيْتُهُ السَّوْطَ فَضَرَبَهُ ضَرْبَةً، فَذَهَبَ بِيَ الْبَعِيرُ كُلَّ مَذْهَبٍ، فَقَالَ لِي النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " عِنْدَ ذَلِكَ يَا جَابِرُ أَتَبِيعُنِي جَمَلَكَ " قُلْتُ: نَعَمْ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ. قَالَ: " اقْدُمِ الْمَدِينَةَ "، فَقَدِمَ الْمَدِينَةَ فَدَخَلَ فِي طَوَائِفَ مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ الْمَسْجِدَ، فَعَقَلْتُ بَعِيرِي، فَقُلْتُ: هَذَا جَمَلُكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، فَخَرَجَ فَجَعَلَ يُطِيفُ بِهِ وَيَقُولُ: " نِعْمَ الْجَمَلُ جَمَلِي " فَقَالَ: " يَا فُلَانُ، انْطَلِقْ فَائْتِنِي بِأَوَاقٍ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ " فَقَالَ: " أَعْطِهَا جَابِرًا " فَقَبَضْتُهَا، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " اسْتَوْفَيْتَ (١) الثَّمَنَ؟ " قُلْتُ: نَعَمْ، يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، قَالَ: " فَلَكَ الثَّمَنُ، وَلَكَ الْجَمَلُ - أَوْ لَكَ الْجَمَلُ، وَلَكَ الثَّمَنُ - " (٢)، ،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) that once I participated in a jihad journey with the Prophet (ﷺ). On the return, the Prophet (ﷺ) said: Whoever wants to go quickly may go. I was riding a fast camel; there was no camel like it in the whole army. I made it run and everyone was left behind me. Suddenly, while walking, my camel stopped at one place and would not move. I heard the voice of the Prophet (ﷺ): "Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him), what happened to your camel?" I replied: "O Messenger of Allah! I do not understand what has happened to it." The Prophet (ﷺ) said: "Hold it and give me the whip." The Prophet (ﷺ) struck it once, and it took me ahead of everyone. On this occasion, the Prophet (ﷺ) said to me: "Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him), will you sell your camel to me?" I replied: "Yes, O Messenger of Allah!" The Prophet (ﷺ) said: "When you reach Madinah." When we reached Madinah, the Prophet (ﷺ) entered Masjid Nabawi with his companions. I tied my camel and said: "O Messenger of Allah! Here is your camel." The Prophet (ﷺ) came out, circled around it, and said: "How beautiful is my camel!" Then he said: "O so-and-so, go and bring a few ounces of gold and give them to Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him)." When I received the price, the Prophet (ﷺ) said: "You have received the full price." I replied: "Yes, O Messenger of Allah!" The Prophet (ﷺ) said twice: "This price is yours, and the camel is also yours."
