أَخْبَرَنَا الْفَضْلُ بْنُ الْحُبَابِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا الْحَوْضِيُّ عَنْ شُعْبَةَ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الْأَصْبَهَانِيِّ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ مَعْقِلٍ قَالَ
قَعَدْتُ إِلَى كَعْبِ بْنِ عُجْرَةَ فَسَأَلْتُهُ عَنْ قَوْلِ اللَّهِ جَلَّ وَعَلَا {فَفِدْيَةٌ مِنْ صِيَامٍ أَوْ صَدَقَةٍ أَوْ نُسُكٍ} قَالَ حُمِلْتُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَالْقَمْلُ يَتَنَاثَرُ عَلَى وَجْهِي فَقَالَ «مَا كُنْتُ أَرَى الْجَهْدَ قَدْ بَلَغَ بِكَ مَا أَرَى أَتَجِدُ شَاةً» قُلْتُ لَا قَالَ «فَصُمْ ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ أَوْ أَطْعِمْ سِتَّةَ مَسَاكِينَ لِكُلِّ مِسْكِينٍ نِصْفُ صَاعٍ» قَالَ فَنَزَلَتْ فِي خَاصَّةٍ وَهِيَ لَكُمْ عَامَّةٌ

✧ I sat with Ka‘b b. ‘Ujrah and asked him about the saying of Allah, Mighty and Exalted: {A ransom of fasting, or charity, or sacrifice}. He said: I was carried to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ while lice were falling on my face. He said, “I did not think that hardship had reached you to the extent I see. Can you find a sheep?” I said, “No.” He said, “Then fast three days, or feed six poor persons, for each poor person half a sa‘.” He said: It was revealed concerning me specifically, but it is for you all generally.
