حَدَّثَنَا حَسَنُ بْنُ مُوسَى الْأَشْيَبُ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ لَهِيعَةَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَيَّاشُ بْنُ عَبَّاسٍ، عَنْ شِيَيْمِ بْنِ بَيْتَانَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا رُوَيْفِعُ بْنُ ثَابِتٍ، قَالَ: كَانَ أَحَدُنَا فِي زَمَانِ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَأْخُذُ جَمَلَ أَخِيهِ عَلَى أَنْ يُعْطِيَهُ النِّصْفَ مِمَّا يَغْنَمُ وَلَهُ النِّصْفُ، حَتَّى أَنَّ أَحَدَنَا لَيَطِيرُ لَهُ النَّصْلُ وَالرِّيشُ، وَالْآخَرَ الْقِدْحُ، ثُمَّ قَالَ لِي رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " يَا رُوَيْفِعُ، لَعَلَّ الْحَيَاةَ سَتَطُولُ بِكَ فَأَخْبِرِ النَّاسَ أَنَّهُ مَنْ عَقَدَ لِحْيَتَهُ، أَوْ تَقَلَّدَ وَتَرًا، أَوْ اسْتَنْجَى بِرَجِيعِ دَابَّةٍ أَوْ عَظْمٍ، فَإِنَّ مُحَمَّدًا صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِنْهُ بَرِيءٌ " (١)، ،
Translation
English translation
It is narrated from Ruwaifi’ (may Allah be pleased with him) that during the blessed era of the Prophet (peace be upon him), we used to participate in jihad. Among us, a person would take a camel from another on the condition that he would give half of his share from the spoils of war to the owner of the she-camel. Sometimes, one of us would only have a strap, and another would have fruits and feathers. The Prophet (peace be upon him) said to me, “O Ruwaifi’! It may be that you live a long life, so inform people that whoever ties a knot in his beard, or hangs a string around his neck, or uses the dung or bone of an animal for istinja (purification), then Muhammad (peace be upon him) is free from such a person.”
