حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو خَيْثَمَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ، عَنْ لَيْثٍ، عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ قَالَ:
بَعَثَنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ سِتَّمِائَةِ رَجُلٍ مَعَ أَبِي عُبَيْدَةَ بْنِ الْجَرَّاحِ وَمَا مَعَنَا إِلَّا جِرَابٌ مِنْ تَمْرٍ، قَالَ: فَاقْتَسَمْنَاهُ، فَأَصَابَ كُلُّ رَجُلٍ مِنَّا خَمْسَ تَمَرَاتٍ، أَوْ سَبْعَ تَمَرَاتٍ، فَأَكَلْنَا حَتَّى بَلَغَنَا الْجُوعُ، قَالَ: فَجَعَلْنَا نَمُصُّ نَوَاهُ، فَلَمَّا بَلَغَنَا الْجُوعُ سَاحَلْنَا الْبَحْرَ، فَإِذَا حُبَابٌ مِثْلُ الْكَثِيبِ الضَّخْمِ قَدْ نَضَبَ عَنْهُ الْمَاءُ، فَقَالَ بَعْضُنَا: أَنَأْكُلُ هَذَا وَهُوَ مَيْتَةٌ ؟ فَقَالَ أَبُو عُبَيْدَةَ: أَنْتُمْ غُزَاةٌ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ، كُلُوا فَلَا بَأْسَ، فَأَكَلْنَا مِنْهُ وَمَلَحْنَا مِنْهُ وَتَزَوَّدْنَا، فَلَمَّا انْتَهَيْنَا إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ ذَكَرْنَا لَهُ ذَلِكَ، فَقَالَ: لَا بَأْسَ بِهِ، هَلْ مَعَ أَحَدٍ مِنْكُمْ شَيْءٌ مِنْهُ يُطْعِمْنِيهِ ؟ قَالَ: فَقَالَ بَعْضُنَا لِبَعْضٍ: نَعَمْ، فَبَعَثْنَا إِلَيْهِ مِنْهُ

✧ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent us, six hundred men, with Abū ʿUbaydah b. al-Jarrāḥ, and we had with us only a sack of dates. He said: So we divided it, and each man among us received five dates or seven dates. We ate them until hunger overtook us. He said: We started sucking the date stones. When hunger overtook us, we went to the seashore, and there was a huge creature like a large sand dune from which the water had receded. Some of us said: "Shall we eat this when it is dead meat?" Abū ʿUbaydah said: "You are warriors in the path of Allah, eat, for there is no harm." So we ate from it, salted some of it, and took provisions. When we came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, we mentioned that to him, and he said: "There is no harm in it. Does any of you have any of it to feed me?" He said: Some of us said to others: "Yes." So we sent some of it to him.
