حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ بُكَيْرٍ حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ عَنْ عُقَيْلٍ عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ كَعْبٍ قَالَ

سَمِعْتُ كَعْبَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ يُحَدِّثُ حِينَ تَخَلَّفَ عَنْ تَبُوكَ وَنَهَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَنْ كَلاَمِنَا وَآتِي رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَأُسَلِّمُ عَلَيْهِ فَأَقُولُ فِي نَفْسِي هَلْ حَرَّكَ شَفَتَيْهِ بِرَدِّ السَّلاَمِ أَمْ لاَ حَتَّى كَمَلَتْ خَمْسُونَ لَيْلَةً وَآذَنَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ بِتَوْبَةِ اللَّهِ عَلَيْنَا حِينَ صَلَّى الْفَجْرَ

I heard Kaʿb bin Malik narrating (when he did not join the battle of Tabuk): Messenger of Allah ﷺ forbade all the Muslims to speak to us. I would come to Messenger of Allah ﷺ and greet him, and I would wonder whether the Prophet ﷺ did move his lips to return to my greetings or not till fifty nights passed away. The Prophet ﷺ then announced (to the people) Allah's forgiveness for us (acceptance of our repentance) at the time when he had offered the Fajr (morning) prayer.
