حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ عَوْنٍ، عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ كَثِيرِ بْنِ أَفْلَحٍ، قَالَ: قَالَ كَعْبُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ: مَا كُنْتُ فِي غَزَاةٍ أَيْسَرَ لِلظَّهْرِ، وَالنَّفَقَةِ مِنِّي فِي تِلْكَ الْغَزَاةِ، قَالَ: لَمَّا خَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قُلْتُ: أَتَجَهَّزُ غَدًا ثُمَّ أَلْحَقُهُ، فَأَخَذْتُ فِي جَهَازِي، فَأَمْسَيْتُ، وَلَمْ أَفْرُغْ، فَقُلْتُ: آخُذُ فِي جَهَازِي غَدًا، وَالنَّاسُ قَرِيبٌ بَعْدُ، ثُمَّ أَلْحَقُهُمْ فَأَمْسَيْتُ، وَلَمْ أَفْرُغْ، فَلَمَّا كَانَ الْيَوْمُ الثَّالِثُ أَخَذْتُ فِي جَهَازِي، فَأَمْسَيْتُ، فَلَمْ (١) أَفْرُغْ فَقُلْتُ: أَيْهَاتَ سَارَ النَّاسُ ثَلَاثًا، فَأَقَمْتُ، فَلَمَّا قَدِمَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ جَعَلَ النَّاسُ يَعْتَذِرُونَ إِلَيْهِ، فَجِئْتُ حَتَّى قُمْتُ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ، فَقُلْتُ: مَا كُنْتُ فِي غَزَاةٍ أَيْسَرَ لِلظَّهْرِ، وَالنَّفَقَةِ مِنِّي فِي هَذِهِ الْغَزَاةِ، فَأَعْرَضَ عَنِّي رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ " وَأَمَرَ النَّاسَ أَنْ لَا يُكَلِّمُونَا، وَأُمِرَتْ نِسَاؤُنَا أَنْ يَتَحَوَّلْنَ عَنَّا "، قَالَ: فَتَسَوَّرْتُ حَائِطًا ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ، فَإِذَا أَنَا بِجَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ، فَقُلْتُ: أَيْ جَابِرُ نَشَدْتُكَ بِاللهِ هَلْ عَلِمْتَنِي (٢) غَشَشْتُ اللهَ وَرَسُولَهُ يَوْمًا قَطُّ، قَالَ: فَسَكَتَ عَنِّي، فَجَعَلَ لَا يُكَلِّمُنِي، قَالَ: فَبَيْنَا أَنَا ذَاتَ، ، يَوْمٍ إِذْ سَمِعْتُ رَجُلًا عَلَى الثَّنِيَّةِ يَقُولُ: كَعْبًا كَعْبًا، حَتَّى دَنَا مِنِّي، فَقَالَ: " بَشِّرُوا كَعْبًا " (١)،
Translation
English translation
It is narrated from Ka'b bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) that, in terms of riding and expenses, I was never as well-off in any expedition as I was in this one. When the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) set out, I thought that I would prepare my travel provisions the next day and join the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him). So I started preparing, but evening came and I could not finish. The same happened on the third day. I said to myself, "Alas! People have already covered three days' journey." Thinking this, I stayed behind. When the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) returned, people began to present various excuses. I too presented myself in the court of Prophethood and stood before the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) and said: "I never had more ease in terms of riding and expenses in any expedition than in this one." Upon this, the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) turned away from me and forbade people from talking to us. He also ordered regarding our wives that they should stay away from us. One day, I climbed the wall of my house and saw Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him). I said to Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him), "O Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him), I ask you by Allah, do you know if I have ever deceived Allah and His Messenger on any day?" But he remained silent and did not speak to me. One day, while I was in this state, I heard someone calling my name from the top of a hill until he came near me and said, "Glad tidings for Ka'b bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him)!"
