حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ الْحَنَفِيُّ (١) ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْحَمِيدِ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، عَنْ صَالِحِ بْنِ أَبِي عَرِيبٍ، عَنْ كَثِيرِ بْنِ مُرَّةَ الْحَضْرَمِيِّ، عَنْ عَوْفِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ الْأَشْجَعِيِّ، قَالَ: خَرَجَ عَلَيْنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَمَعَهُ الْعَصَا وَفِي الْمَسْجِدِ أَقْنَاءٌ مُعَلَّقَةٌ، فِيهَا قِنْوٌ فِيهِ حَشَفٌ، فَغَمَزَ الْقِنْوَ بِالْعَصَا الَّتِي فِي يَدِهِ قَالَ: " لَوْ شَاءَ رَبُّ هَذِهِ الصَّدَقَةِ، تَصَدَّقَ بِأَطْيَبَ مِنْهَا، إِنَّ رَبَّ هَذِهِ الصَّدَقَةِ لَيَأْكُلُ الْحَشَفَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ "، قَالَ: ثُمَّ أَقْبَلَ عَلَيْنَا، فَقَالَ: " أَمَا وَاللهِ يَا أَهْلَ الْمَدِينَةِ، لَتَدَعُنَّهَا أَرْبَعِينَ عَامًا لِلْعَوَافِي " قَالَ: فَقُلْتُ: اللهُ أَعْلَمُ. قَالَ: " يَعْنِي الطَّيْرَ وَالسِّبَاعَ " قَالَ: وَكُنَّا نَقُولُ: إِنَّ هَذَا لَلَّذِي تُسَمِّيهِ الْعَجَمُ، هِيَ الْكَرَاكِيُّ (٢)، ،

English translation
It is narrated from Awf (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) came to us, and in his blessed hand was a staff. At that time, some bunches of dates were hanging in the mosque, among which there were also some unripe dates in one bunch. The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) shook it with his staff and said, "If the one giving charity wished, he could have given more than this in charity. This person who gave charity will eat unripe dates on the Day of Resurrection." Then, turning towards us, he said, "By Allah, O people of Madinah! You will leave this city of Madinah for birds and beasts for forty years."
