حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي قَيْسٌ قَالَ: قَالَ لِي جَرِيرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ: قَالَ لِي رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " أَلَا تُرِيحُنِي مِنْ ذِي الْخَلَصَةِ؟ " وَكَانَ بَيْتًا فِي خَثْعَمَ يُسَمَّى كَعْبَةَ الْيَمَانِيَةِ. قَالَ: فَانْطَلَقْتُ فِي خَمْسِينَ وَمِائَةِ فَارِسٍ مِنْ أَحْمَسَ، وَكَانُوا أَصْحَابَ خَيْلٍ، فَأَخْبَرْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنِّي لَا أَثْبُتُ عَلَى الْخَيْلِ، فَضَرَبَ فِي صَدْرِي حَتَّى رَأَيْتُ أَثَرَ أَصَابِعِهِ فِي صَدْرِي،، ، وَقَالَ: " اللهُمَّ ثَبِّتْهُ، وَاجْعَلْهُ هَادِيًا مَهْدِيًّا ". فَانْطَلَقَ إِلَيْهَا، فَكَسَّرَهَا وَحَرَّقَهَا، فَأَرْسَلَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُبَشِّرُهُ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ جَرِيرٍ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: وَالَّذِي بَعَثَكَ بِالْحَقِّ، مَا جِئْتُكَ حَتَّى تَرَكْتُهَا كَأَنَّهَا جَمَلٌ أَجْرَبُ. فَبَارَكَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَلَى خَيْلِ أَحْمَسَ وَرِجَالِهَا خَمْسَ مَرَّاتٍ (١)،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Jarir (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the Holy Prophet (ﷺ) said to me, "Why do you not relieve me from Dhi al-Khalasah?" This was a church in the tribe of Khath'am which was called the Yemeni Ka'bah. So I set out with one hundred and fifty men from Ahmas, all of whom were horsemen. I said to the Holy Prophet (ﷺ) that I cannot sit firmly on the back of a horse. So the Holy Prophet (ﷺ) struck his blessed hand on my chest until I saw the marks of his fingers on my chest, and he prayed, "O Allah! Grant him firmness and composure, and make him one who guides and is guided." Then I set out, and upon reaching there, I set it on fire. Then I sent a man to the Holy Prophet (ﷺ) to give him the good news, and he said, "By the One Who sent you with the truth, I left it in such a state as if it were a mangy camel." Upon this, the Holy Prophet (ﷺ) prayed for blessings for Ahmas and its horsemen five times.
