حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَامِرٍ حَدَّثَنَا فُلَيْحٌ حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ الْحَارِثِ قَالَ

دَخَلْنَا عَلَى جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ وَهُوَ يُصَلِّي فِي ثَوْبٍ وَاحِدٍ، مُلْتَحِفًا بِهِ، وَرِدَاؤُهُ قَرِيبٌ، لَوْ تَنَاوَلَهُ بَلَغَهُ، فَلَمَّا سَلَّمَ سَأَلْنَاهُ عَنْ ذَلِكَ، فَقَالَ: إِنَّمَا أَفْعَلُ هَذَا لِيَرَانِي الْحَمْقَى أَمْثَالُكُمْ، فَيُفْشُوا عَلَى جَابِرٍ رُخْصَةً رَخَّصَهَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ، ثُمَّ قَالَ جَابِرٌ: خَرَجْتُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فِي بَعْضِ أَسْفَارِهِ، فَجِئْتُهُ لَيْلَةً وَهُوَ يُصَلِّي فِي ثَوْبٍ وَاحِدٍ، [وَهُوَ يُصَلِّي] وَعَلَيَّ ثَوْبٌ وَاحِدٌ، فَاشْتَمَلْتُ بِهِ، ثُمَّ قُمْتُ إِلَى جَنْبِهِ قَالَ: يَا جَابِرُ، مَا هَذَا الِاشْتِمَالُ ؟ إِذَا صَلَّيْتَ، وَعَلَيْكَ ثَوْبٌ وَاحِدٌ، فَإِنْ كَانَ وَاسِعًا فَالْتَحِفْ بِهِ، وَإِنْ كَانَ ضَيِّقًا فَاتَّزِرْ بِهِ.

✧ We entered upon Jabir b. Abdullah while he was praying in a single garment, wrapping himself with it, and his cloak was close by; if he had reached for it, he could have gotten it. When he said the salam, we asked him about that, and he said: I only do this so that fools like you may see me and spread about Jabir a concession that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ granted. Then Jabir said: I went out with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ on one of his journeys, and I came to him one night while he was praying in a single garment, and I had on a single garment, so I wrapped myself with it, then stood beside him. He said: O Jabir, what is this wrapping? When you pray and you have on a single garment, if it is wide, wrap yourself with it, and if it is narrow, tie it around your waist.
