حَدَّثَنَا أَسْوَدُ بْنُ عَامِرٍ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ مَيْسَرَةَ عَنْ طَارِقِ بْنِ شِهَابٍ عَنِ الْمِقْدَادِ بْنِ الْأَسْوَدِ قَالَ
لَمَّا نَزَلْنَا الْمَدِينَةَ عَشَّرَنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَشَرَةً عَشَرَةً - يَعْنِي: فِي كُلِّ بَيْتٍ - قَالَ: فَكُنْتُ فِي الْعَشَرَةِ الَّذِينَ كَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فِيهِمْ، قَالَ: وَلَمْ يَكُنْ لَنَا إِلَّا شَاةٌ نَتَجَزَّأُ لَبَنَهَا، قَالَ: فَكُنَّا إِذَا أَبْطَأَ عَلَيْنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ شَرِبْنَا وَبَقَّيْنَا لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ نَصِيبَهُ، فَلَمَّا كَانَ ذَاتَ لَيْلَةٍ أَبْطَأَ عَلَيْنَا، قَالَ: وَنِمْنَا، فَقَالَ الْمِقْدَادُ بْنُ الْأَسْوَدِ: لَقَدْ أَطَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ، مَا أُرَاهُ يَجِيءُ اللَّيْلَةَ، لَعَلَّ إِنْسَانًا دَعَاهُ، قَالَ: فَشَرِبْتُهُ، فَلَمَّا ذَهَبَ مِنَ اللَّيْلِ جَاءَ فَدَخَلَ الْبَيْتَ، قَالَ: فَلَمَّا شَرِبْتُهُ لَمْ أَنَمْ أَنَا، قَالَ: فَلَمَّا دَخَلَ سَلَّمَ وَلَمْ يَشُدَّ، ثُمَّ مَالَ إِلَى الْقَدَحِ، فَلَمَّا لَمْ يَرَ شَيْئًا أَسْكَتَ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: اللَّهُمَّ أَطْعِمْ مَنْ أَطْعَمَنَا اللَّيْلَةَ، قَالَ: وَثَبْتُ وَأَخَذْتُ السِّكِّينَ وَقُمْتُ إِلَى الشَّاةِ، قَالَ: مَا لَكَ ؟ قُلْتُ: أَذْبَحُ، قَالَ: لَا، ائْتِنِي بِالشَّاةِ، فَأَتَيْتُهُ بِهَا، فَمَسَحَ ضَرْعَهَا فَخَرَجَ شَيْئًا، ثُمَّ شَرِبَ وَنَامَ

✧ When we arrived in Madinah, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ divided us into groups of ten—meaning, in each house. He said, 'I was in the group of ten in which the Prophet ﷺ was.' He said, 'We had only one sheep whose milk we would share.' He said, 'When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was late in coming to us, we would drink and leave his share for the Prophet ﷺ. One night he was late, and we slept. Al-Miqdad b. al-Aswad said, "The Prophet ﷺ has been long; I do not think he will come tonight. Perhaps someone invited him."' He said, 'So I drank it. Then later in the night he came and entered the house.' He said, 'After I drank it, I could not sleep.' He said, 'When he entered, he greeted without raising his voice, then went to the bowl, and when he saw nothing in it, he was silent. Then he said, "O Allah, feed the one who fed us tonight."' He said, 'I jumped up, took the knife, and went to the sheep.' He said, 'What is the matter with you?' I said, 'I will slaughter it.' He said, 'No. Bring me the sheep.' So I brought it to him, and he wiped its udder, and something came out, then he drank and slept.
