"Abu Bakr went out to trade in Busra, one year before the Prophet ﷺ died, and with him were Nuʿaiman and Suwaibit the sons of Harmalah, who had been present at Badr. Nuʿaiman was in charge of the provisions, and Suwaibit was a man who joked a lot. He said to Nuʿaiman: 'Feed me'. He said: 'Not until Abu Bakr comes'. He said: 'Then I will have to annoy you'. Then they passed by some people, and Suwaibit said to them: 'Will you buy a slave from me?' They said: 'Yes'. He said 'He is a slave who talks a lot and he will tell you, "I am a free man". If you are going to let him go when he says that to you, do not bother buying him.' They said: 'We will buy him from you.' So they bought him from him in return for ten young she-camels, then they brought him and tied a turban or a rope around his neck. Nuʿaiman said: 'This man is making fun of you. I am a free man, not a slave.' They said: 'He has already told us about you; and they took him off.' Then Abu Bakr came and he (Suwaibit) told him about that. So he followed those people and returned their camels to them, and took Nuʿaiman back. When they came to the Prophet ﷺ they told him what had happened, and the Prophet ﷺ and his companions laughed about it for a year."

أَخْبَرَنَا خَبَرَكَ فَانْطَلَقُوا بِهِ فَجَاءَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ فَأَخْبَرُوهُ بِذَلِكَ قَالَ فَاتَّبَعَ الْقَوْمَ وَرَدَّ عَلَيْهِمُ الْقَلاَئِصَ وَأَخَذَ نُعَيْمَانَ قَالَ فَلَمَّا قَدِمُوا عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَأَخْبَرُوهُ قَالَ فَضَحِكَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ وَأَصْحَابُهُ مِنْهُ حَوْلاً

- أحمد بن أبي بكر بن إسماعيل البوصيري
في إسناده زمعة بن صالح وذكر كلام اهل العلم عليه
in سنن ابن ماجه, p. 3832 - Dāraquṭnī
يرويه الزهري واختلف عنه فرواه أبو عامر العقدي وروح بن عبادة عن زمعة عن الزهري فقال وهب بن عبد الله بن زمعة عن أم سلمة وكذلك قال وكيع مرة وحدث به وكيع مرة أخرى فقال كما قال روح وأبو عامر وقال أحمد بن حنبل إن الصحيح وهب بن عبد الله بن زمعة ورواه إسحاق بن راشد عن الزهري وخالف روح أبا داود وأبا عامر ووكيعا في متنه وفي حديث روح كان سويبط على الزاد فجاءه النعيمان يطلب منه الزاد وهذا أشبه
machine translationAl-Zuhrī narrates it, and there is disagreement about him. Abū ʿĀmir al-ʿAqadī and Rawḥ b. ʿUbādah narrated it from Zamʿah from al-Zuhrī, saying: Wahb b. ʿAbdullāh b. Zamʿah, from Umm Salamah. Wakīʿ said likewise on one occasion, and on another occasion Wakīʿ narrated it and said as Rawḥ and Abū ʿĀmir said. Aḥmad b. Ḥanbal said: The correct (ṣaḥīḥ) form is Wahb b. ʿAbdullāh b. Zamʿah. Isḥāq b. Rāshid narrated it from al-Zuhrī, and Rawḥ differed from Abū Dāwūd, Abū ʿĀmir and Wakīʿ in its text (matn). In the narration of Rawḥ: Suwaybiṭ was in charge of the provisions, so al-Nuʿaymān came to him asking him for provisions. And this is more fitting.
