حَدَّثَنَا مُسْلِمٌ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَقِيلٍ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْمُتَوَكِّلِ النَّاجِيُّ قَالَ
أَتَيْتُ جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الأَنْصَارِيَّ فَقُلْتُ لَهُ حَدِّثْنِي بِمَا سَمِعْتَ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ سَافَرْتُ مَعَهُ فِي بَعْضِ أَسْفَارِهِ قَالَ أَبُو عَقِيلٍ لاَ أَدْرِي غَزْوَةً أَوْ عُمْرَةً فَلَمَّا أَنْ أَقْبَلْنَا قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ مَنْ أَحَبَّ أَنْ يَتَعَجَّلَ إِلَى أَهْلِهِ فَلْيُعَجِّلْ قَالَ جَابِرٌ فَأَقْبَلْنَا وَأَنَا عَلَى جَمَلٍ لِي أَرْمَكَ لَيْسَ فِيهِ شِيَةٌ وَالنَّاسُ خَلْفِي فَبَيْنَا أَنَا كَذَلِكَ إِذْ قَامَ عَلَىَّ فَقَالَ لِي النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يَا جَابِرُ اسْتَمْسِكْ فَضَرَبَهُ بِسَوْطِهِ ضَرْبَةً فَوَثَبَ الْبَعِيرُ مَكَانَهُ فَقَالَ أَتَبِيعُ الْجَمَلَ قُلْتُ نَعَمْ فَلَمَّا قَدِمْنَا الْمَدِينَةَ وَدَخَلَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ الْمَسْجِدَ فِي طَوَائِفِ أَصْحَابِهِ فَدَخَلْتُ إِلَيْهِ وَعَقَلْتُ الْجَمَلَ فِي نَاحِيَةِ الْبَلاَطِ فَقُلْتُ لَهُ هَذَا جَمَلُكَ فَخَرَجَ فَجَعَلَ يُطِيفُ بِالْجَمَلِ وَيَقُولُ الْجَمَلُ جَمَلُنَا فَبَعَثَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ أَوَاقٍ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ فَقَالَ أَعْطُوهَا جَابِرًا ثُمَّ قَالَ اسْتَوْفَيْتَ الثَّمَنَ قُلْتُ نَعَمْ قَالَ الثَّمَنُ وَالْجَمَلُ لَكَ

I called on Jabir bin ʿAbdullah Al-Ansari and said to him, "Relate to me what you have heard from Messenger of Allah ﷺ." He said, "I accompanied him on one of the journeys." (Abu ʿAqil said, "I do not know whether that journey was for the purpose of Jihad or ʿUmra.") "When we were returning," Jabir continued, "the Prophet ﷺ said, 'Whoever wants to return earlier to his family, should hurry up.' We set off and I was on a black red tainted camel having no defect, and the people were behind me. While I was in that state the camel stopped suddenly (because of exhaustion). On that the Prophet ﷺ said to me, 'O Jabir, wait!' Then he hit it once with his lash and it started moving on a fast pace. He then said, 'Will you sell the camel?' I replied in the affirmative when we reached Medina, and the Prophet ﷺ went to the Mosque along with his companions. I, too, went to him after tying the camel on the pavement at the Mosque gate. Then I said to him, 'This is your camel.' He came out and started examining the camel and saying, 'The camel is ours.' Then the Prophet ﷺ sent some Awaq (i.e. an amount) of gold saying, 'Give it to Jabir.' Then he asked, 'Have you taken the full price (of the camel)?' I replied in the affirmative. He said, 'Both the price and the camel are for you.' ''
