[ جَهْجَاهُ وَسِنَانٌ وَمَا كَانَ مِنْ ابْنِ أُبَيٍّ في غزوة بني المصطلق ] فَبَيْنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَلَى ذَلِكَ الْمَاءِ، وَرَدَتْ وَارِدَةُ النَّاسِ، وَمَعَ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ أَجِيرٌ لَهُ مِنْ بَنِي غِفَارٍ، يُقَالُ لَهُ: جَهْجَاهُ بْنُ مَسْعُودٍ يَقُودُ فَرَسَهُ، فَازْدَحَمَ جَهْجَاهُ وَسِنَانُ بْنُ وَبَرٍ الْجُهَنِيُّ، حَلِيفُ بَنِي عَوْفِ بْنِ الْخَزْرَجِ عَلَى الْمَاءِ، فَاقْتَتَلَا، فَصَرَخَ الْجُهَنِيُّ: يَا مَعْشَرَ الْأَنْصَارِ، وَصَرَخَ جَهْجَاهُ: يَا مَعْشَرَ الْمُهَاجِرِينَ؛ فَغَضِبَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ أُبَيٍّ ابْنُ سَلُولَ وَعِنْدَهُ رَهْطٌ مِنْ قَوْمِهِ فِيهِمْ: زَيْدُ بْنُ أَرْقَمَ، غُلَامٌ حَدَثٌ، فَقَالَ: أَوَقَدْ فَعَلُوهَا، قَدْ نَافَرُونَا وَكَاثَرُونَا فِي بِلَادِنَا، وَاَللَّهِ مَا أَعَدَّنَا وَجَلَابِيبَ قُرَيْشٍ إلَّا كَمَا قَالَ الْأَوَّلُ: سَمِّنْ كَلْبَكَ يَأْكُلْكَ، أَمَا وَاَللَّهِ لَئِنْ رَجَعْنَا إِلَى الْمَدِينَةِ لَيُخْرِجَنَّ الْأَعَزُّ مِنْهَا الْأَذَلَّ ثُمَّ أَقْبَلَ عَلَى مَنْ حَضَرَهُ مِنْ قَوْمِهِ، فَقَالَ لَهُمْ: هَذَا مَا فَعَلْتُمْ بِأَنْفُسِكُمْ، أَحْلَلْتُمُوهُمْ بِلَادَكُمْ، وَقَاسَمْتُوهُمْ أَمْوَالَكُمْ، أَمَا وَاَللَّهِ لَوْ أَمْسَكْتُمْ عَنْهُمْ مَا بِأَيْدِيكُمْ لَتَحَوَّلُوا إلَى غَيْرِ دَارِكُمْ. فَسَمِعَ ذَلِكَ زَيْدُ بْنُ أَرْقَمَ، فَمَشَى بِهِ إلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ، وَذَلِكَ عِنْدَ فَرَاغِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ مِنْ عَدُوِّهِ، فَأَخْبَرَهُ الْخَبَرَ، وَعِنْدَهُ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ، فَقَالَ: مُرْ بِهِ عَبَّادَ بْنِ بِشْرٍ فَلْيَقْتُلْهُ؛ فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ: فَكَيْفَ يَا عُمَرُ إذَا تَحَدَّثَ النَّاسُ أَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا يَقْتُلُ أَصْحَابَهُ لَا وَلَكِنْ أَذَّنَ بِالرَّحِيلِ وَذَلِكَ فِي سَاعَةٍ لَمْ يَكُنْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَرْتَحِلُ فِيهَا، فَارْتَحَلَ النَّاسُ
Translation
✧ [Jahjāh and Sinān and what happened with Ibn Ubayy in the expedition of Banū al-Muṣṭaliq] While the Messenger of God ﷺ was at that water, the people’s watering parties came down. With ʿUmar b. al-Khaṭṭāb was a hired man of his from Banū Ghifār called Jahjāh b. Masʿūd, leading his horse. Jahjāh and Sinān b. Wabar al-Juhanī, an ally of Banū ʿAwf b. al-Khazraj, crowded each other at the water and fought. The Juhanī cried out, “O company of the Anṣār!” and Jahjāh cried out, “O company of the Muhājirūn!” ʿAbd Allāh b. Ubayy b. Salūl became angry, and with him was a group of his people, among them Zayd b. Arqam, a young lad. He said, “Have they really done it? They have challenged us and outnumbered us in our own land. By God, we and the rabble of Quraysh are only as the first one said: ‘Fatten your dog and it will eat you.’ By God, if we return to Madinah, the mightier will surely expel the meaner from it.” Then he turned to those of his people who were present and said to them, “This is what you have done to yourselves. You have let them settle in your land and shared your wealth with them. By God, if you withheld from them what is in your hands, they would move to other than your abode.” Zayd b. Arqam heard that and went with it to the Messenger of God ﷺ, at the time when the Messenger of God ﷺ had finished with his enemy, and told him the news. With him was ʿUmar b. al-Khaṭṭāb, who said, “Order ʿAbbād b. Bishr to kill him.” The Messenger of God ﷺ said to him, “How would it be, ʿUmar, if people talked that Muḥammad kills his companions? No, but give the call to depart.” That was at an hour when the Messenger of God ﷺ did not usually set out, and the people departed.
