Musnad Ahmad 15004

Translation

✧ I traveled with the Messenger of God ﷺ on one of his journeys—I think he said: as a warrior. When we returned, he said: 'Whoever wishes to hasten, let him hasten.' I was on a dark camel unlike any in the army, so I urged it on, and the people were behind me. While I was thus, my camel stopped and would not move. Then I heard the voice of the Prophet ﷺ, who said: 'What is the matter with your camel, O Jabir?' I said: 'O Messenger of God, I do not know what happened to it.' He said: 'Hold on and give me the whip.' I gave him the whip, and he struck it once, and the camel bolted in every direction. The Prophet ﷺ said to me then: 'O Jabir, will you sell me your camel?' I said: 'Yes, O Messenger of God.' He said: 'Proceed to Madinah.' So I went ahead to Madinah, and he entered the mosque with groups of his companions. I hobbled my camel and said: 'This is your camel, O Messenger of God.' He came out and circled it, saying: 'What an excellent camel! My camel!' Then he said: 'O so-and-so, go and bring me some ounces of gold.' He said: 'Give them to Jabir.' I took them, and the Prophet ﷺ said: 'Have you received the price in full?' I said: 'Yes, O Messenger of God.' He said: 'The price is yours, and the camel is yours' or 'the camel is yours, and the price is yours.'
