Hadith of so-and-so from the companions of the Prophet (peace be upon him)

حَدِيثُ فُلَانٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ (١)، ١٧٥٣٣ - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الصَّمَدِ، حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ حَمْزَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا عِكْرِمَةُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ، قَالَ: وَنَالَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ بَنِي تَمِيمٍ عِنْدَهُ، فَأَخَذَ كَفًّا مِنْ حَصًى لِيَحْصِبَهُ - ثُمَّ قَالَ عِكْرِمَةُ: حَدَّثَنِي فُلَانٌ، مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: أَنَّ تَمِيمًا ذُكِرُوا عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ: أَبْطَأَ هَذَا الْحَيُّ مِنْ تَمِيمٍ عَنْ هَذَا الْأَمْرِ. فَنَظَرَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِلَى مُزَيْنَةَ، فَقَالَ: " مَا أَبْطَأَ قَوْمٌ هَؤُلَاءِ مِنْهُمْ "، وَقَالَ رَجُلٌ يَوْمًا: أَبْطَأَ هَؤُلَاءِ الْقَوْمُ مِنْ تَمِيمٍ بِصَدَقَاتِهِمْ، قَالَ: فَأَقْبَلَتْ نَعَمٌ حُمْرٌ وَسُودٌ لِبَنِي تَمِيمٍ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " هَذِهِ نَعَمُ قَوْمِي "، وَنَالَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ بَنِي تَمِيمٍ عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَوْمًا، فَقَالَ: " لَا تَقُلْ لِبَنِي تَمِيمٍ إِلَّا خَيْرًا، فَإِنَّهُمْ أَطْوَلُ النَّاسِ رِمَاحًا عَلَى الدَّجَّالِ " (٢)، ،

Once, in the presence of Ikrimah bin Khalid (may Allah have mercy on him), someone insulted a man from Banu Tamim. Ikrimah picked up a handful of pebbles to hit him and then said that a companion (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated this hadith to me: Once, Banu Tamim were mentioned before the Prophet (ﷺ), and a man said that this tribe of Banu Tamim was very slow in accepting faith. The Prophet (ﷺ) looked towards the tribe of Muzaynah and said, "No tribe has delayed more than them." Similarly, once a man said that this tribe of Banu Tamim was very late in paying zakat. Not long after, the red and black animals of Banu Tamim arrived, and the Prophet (ﷺ) said, "These are the animals of my people." In the same way, once someone made inappropriate remarks about Banu Tamim in the presence of the Prophet (ﷺ), so the Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Always mention Banu Tamim in a good manner, for the longest spears against the Dajjal will be theirs."
