قَالَ عَبْدُ بْنُ حُمَيْدٍ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحِيمِ بْنُ هَارُونَ الْوَاسِطِيُّ الْغَسَّانِيُّ، ثَنَا فَائِدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ أَبِي أَوْفَى ؓ، قَالَ: وَاللهِ إِنَّا لَجُلُوسٌ عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ، إِذْ جَاءَ أَعْرَابِيٌّ فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، أَهْلَكَنِي الشَّبَقُ وَالْجُوعُ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ:

« يَا أَعْرَابِيُّ، الشَّبَقُ وَالْجُوعُ ؟ » قَالَ: هُوَ ذَاكَ، قَالَ ﷺ: « فَاذْهَبْ، فَأَوَّلُ امْرَأَةٍ تَلْقَاهَا لَيْسَ لَهَا زَوْجٌ فَهِيَ امْرَأَتُكَ ». فَقَالَ الْأَعْرَابِيُّ: فَدَخَلْتُ نَخْلَ بَنِي النَّجَّارِ، فَإِذَا جَارِيَةٌ تَخْتَرِفُ فِي زِنْبِيلٍ، فَقُلْتُ لَهَا: يَا ذَاتَ الزِّنْبِيلِ، هَلْ لَكِ زَوْجٌ ؟ قَالَتْ: لَا، قَالَ: انْزِلِي، فَقَدْ زَوَّجَنِيكِ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ، قَالَ: فَنَزَلَتْ، فَانْطَلَقْتُ مَعَهَا إِلَى مَنْزِلِهَا، فَقَالَتْ لِأَبِيهَا: إِنَّ هَذَا الْأَعْرَابِيَّ أَتَانِي وَأَنَا أَخْتَرِفُ فِي الزِّنْبِيلِ، فَسَأَلَنِي: هَلْ لَكِ زَوْجٌ ؟ فَقُلْتُ: لَا، فَقَالَ: انْزِلِي، فَقَدْ زَوَّجَنِيكِ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ. فَخَرَجَ أَبُو الْجَارِيَةِ إِلَى الْأَعْرَابِيِّ، فَقَالَ الْأَعْرَابِيُّ: مَا ذَاتُ الزِّنْبِيلِ مِنْكَ ؟ قَالَ: ابْنَتِي، قَالَ: هَلْ لَهَا زَوْجٌ ؟ قَالَ: لَا، قَالَ: فَقَدْ زَوَّجَنِيهَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ. فَانْطَلَقَتِ الْجَارِيَةُ وَأَبُو الْجَارِيَةِ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ، فَأَخْبَرَهُ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: « هَلْ لَهَا زَوْجٌ ؟ » قَالَ: لَا، قَالَ ﷺ: « اذْهَبْ، فَأَحْسِنْ جِهَازَهَا، ثُمَّ ابْعَثْ بِهَا إِلَيْهِ ». فَانْطَلَقَ أَبُو الْجَارِيَةِ فَجَهَّزَ ابْنَتَهُ، وَأَحْسَنَ الْقِيَامَ عَلَيْهَا، ثُمَّ بَعَثَ مَعَهَا بِتَمْرٍ وَلَبَنٍ. فَجَاءَتْ بِهِ إِلَى بَيْتِ الْأَعْرَابِيِّ، وَانْصَرَفَ الْأَعْرَابِيُّ إِلَى بَيْتِهِ، فَرَأَى جَارِيَةً مُصَنَّعَةً، وَرَأَى تَمْرًا وَلَبَنًا، فَقَامَ إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ. فَلَمَّا طَلَعَ الْفَجْرُ غَدَا إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ، وَغَدَا أَبُو الْجَارِيَةِ عَلَى ابْنَتِهِ، فَقَالَتْ: وَاللهِ مَا قَرُبَنَا وَلَا قَرُبَ تَمْرَنَا وَلَا لَبَنَنَا ! قَالَ: فَانْطَلَقَ أَبُو الْجَارِيَةِ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَأَخْبَرَهُ، فَدَعَا الْأَعْرَابِيَّ فَقَالَ: « يَا أَعْرَابِيُّ، مَا مَنَعَكَ أَنْ تَكُونَ أَلْمَمْتَ بِأَهْلِكَ ؟ » قَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، انْصَرَفْتُ مِنْ عِنْدِكَ، وَدَخَلْتُ الْمَنْزِلَ وَإِذَا بِجَارِيَةٍ مُصَنَّعَةٍ، وَرَأَيْتُ تَمْرًا وَلَبَنًا، فَكَانَ يَجِبُ عَلَيَّ أَنْ أُحْيِيَ لَيْلَتِي إِلَى الصُّبْحِ - يَعْنِي شُكْرًا - فَقَالَ ﷺ: « يَا أَعْرَابِيُّ، اذْهَبْ فَأَلِمَّ بِأَهْلِكَ ».

✧ "O Bedouin, lust and hunger?" He said: That is it. He ﷺ said: "Go, and the first woman you meet who has no husband, she is your wife." The Bedouin said: I entered the palm grove of Banu al-Najjar, and there was a young woman picking dates into a basket. I said to her: O owner of the basket, do you have a husband? She said: No. He said: Come down, for the Messenger of God ﷺ has married you to me. He said: She came down, and I went with her to her house. She said to her father: This Bedouin came to me while I was picking dates into the basket, and he asked me: Do you have a husband? I said: No. He said: Come down, for the Messenger of God ﷺ has married you to me. The girl's father came out to the Bedouin, and the Bedouin said: What is the owner of the basket to you? He said: My daughter. He said: Does she have a husband? He said: No. He said: The Messenger of God ﷺ has married her to me. The girl and her father went to the Messenger of God ﷺ, and he informed him. The Messenger of God ﷺ said: "Does she have a husband?" He said: No. He ﷺ said: "Go, prepare her trousseau well, then send her to him." The girl's father went and prepared his daughter, and took good care of her, then sent with her dates and milk. She brought them to the Bedouin's house, and the Bedouin returned to his house. He saw a well-adorned young woman, and he saw dates and milk, so he stood up to pray. When dawn broke, he went early to the Messenger of God ﷺ, and the girl's father went early to his daughter. She said: By God, he did not approach us, nor did he approach our dates or our milk! He said: The girl's father went to the Messenger of God ﷺ and informed him. He called the Bedouin and said: "O Bedouin, what prevented you from being intimate with your wife?" He said: O Messenger of God, I left you and entered the house, and there was a well-adorned young woman, and I saw dates and milk, so it was incumbent upon me to spend my night until morning in prayer—meaning out of gratitude. He ﷺ said: "O Bedouin, go and be intimate with your wife."
