قَالَ عَبْدٌ: حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللهِ بْنُ مُوسَى، ثَنَا أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ الرَّازِيُّ، عَنْ أَبِي هَارُونَ الْعَبْدِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ ؓ، قَالَ: كَانَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْمُهَاجِرِينَ ضَعِيفًا، وَكَانَتْ لَهُ حَاجَةٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ، فَأَرَادَ أَنْ يَلْقَاهُ عَلَى خَلَاءٍ، فَيُبْدِيَ لَهُ حَاجَتَهُ، وَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مُعَسْكِرًا بِالْبَطْحَاءِ، وَكَانَ يَجِيءُ مِنَ اللَّيْلِ، فَيَطُوفُ بِالْبَيْتِ، حَتَّى إِذَا كَانَ فِي وَجْهِ الْفَجْرِ رَجَعَ، فَصَلَّى بِأَصْحَابِهِ صَلَاةَ الْغَدَاةِ. قَالَ: فَحَبَسَهُ الطَّوَافُ ذَاتَ لَيْلَةٍ حَتَّى أَصْبَحَ، فَلَمَّا اسْتَوَى ﷺ عَلَى رَاحِلَتِهِ، عَرَضَ لَهُ الرَّجُلُ، فَأَخَذَ بِخِطَامِ نَاقَتِهِ، فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، إِنَّ لِي إِلَيْكَ حَاجَةً فَقَالَ ﷺ:
إِنَّكَ سَتُدْرِكُ حَاجَتَكَ فَأَبَى، فَلَمَّا خَشِيَ أَنْ يَحْبِسَهُ، خَفَقَهُ بِالسَّوْطِ خَفْقَةً، ثُمَّ مَضَى، فَصَلَّى بِهِمْ صَلَاةَ الْغَدَاةِ. فَلَمَّا انْفَتَلَ أَقْبَلَ ﷺ بِوَجْهِهِ عَلَى الْقَوْمِ - وَكَانَ إِذَا فَعَلَ ذَلِكَ عَرَفُوا أَنَّهُ حَدَثَ أَمْرٌ - فَاجْتَمَعَ الْقَوْمُ حَوْلَهُ، فَقَالَ ﷺ: أَيْنَ الَّذِي خَفَقْتُ آنِفًا ؟ فَأَعَادَهَا: إِنْ كَانَ فِي الْقَوْمِ فَلْيَقُمْ، قَالَ: فَجَعَلَ الرَّجُلُ يَقُولُ: أَعُوذُ بِاللهِ ثُمَّ بِرَسُولِهِ، وَجَعَلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ: ادْنُهْ ادْنُهْ، حَتَّى دَنَا مِنْهُ، فَجَلَسَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ، وَنَاوَلَهُ السَّوْطَ، فَقَالَ: خُذْ بِمِجْلَدِكَ، فَاقْتَصَّ، فَقَالَ: أَعُوذُ بِاللهِ أَنْ أَجْلِدَ نَبِيَّهُ، قَالَ ﷺ: خُذْ بِمِجْلَدِكَ، فَمَا بَأْسٌ عَلَيْكَ، قَالَ: أَعُوذُ بِاللهِ أَنْ أَجْلِدَ نَبِيَّهُ، قَالَ ﷺ: إِلَّا أَنْ تَعْفُوَ، قَالَ: فَأَلْقَى السَّوْطَ، وَقَالَ: قَدْ عَفَوْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ. فَقَامَ أَبُو ذَرٍّ، فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، تَذْكُرُ لَيْلَةَ الْعَقَبَةِ ؟ كُنْتُ أَسُوقُ بِكَ، وَكُنْتَ نَائِمًا، وَكُنْتُ إِذَا أَبْطَأَتْ، وَإِذَا أَخَذْتُ بِخِطَامِهَا، أَعْرَضَتْ، فَخَفَقْتُكَ خَفْقَةً بِالسَّوْطِ، فَقُلْتُ: قَدْ أَتَاكَ الْقَوْمُ، فَقُلْتَ: لَا بَأْسَ عَلَيْكَ. خُذْ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، فَاقْتَصَّ، قَالَ ﷺ: قَدْ عَفَوْتُ قَالَ: اقْتَصَّ ; فَإِنَّهُ أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ، فَجَلَدَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ، قَالَ: فَلَقَدْ رَأَيْتُهُ يَتَضَوَّرُ مِنْهَا، ثُمَّ قَالَ ﷺ: أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ، اتَّقُوا اللهَ، فَوَاللهِ لَا يَظْلِمُ مُؤْمِنٌ مُؤْمِنًا، إِلَّا انْتَقَمَ اللهُ تَعَالَى لَهُ مِنْهُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ.

✧ You will certainly attain your need, but he refused. When he feared that he would be delayed, he struck him lightly with the whip, then went on and prayed the morning prayer with them. When he finished, he ﷺ turned to face the people - and when he did that, they knew something had happened - and the people gathered around him. He ﷺ said, 'Where is the one I struck just now?' He repeated, 'If he is among the people, let him stand up.' The man began to say, 'I seek refuge in Allah and then in His Messenger,' and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ kept saying, 'Come closer, come closer,' until he came close to him. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ sat before him and handed him the whip, saying, 'Take your whip and retaliate.' The man said, 'I seek refuge in Allah from striking His Prophet.' He ﷺ said, 'Take your whip, there is no harm upon you.' He said, 'I seek refuge in Allah from striking His Prophet.' He ﷺ said, 'Unless you forgive.' He said: So he threw down the whip and said, 'I have forgiven, O Messenger of Allah.' Then Abu Dharr stood up and said, 'O Messenger of Allah, do you remember the night of al-Aqabah? I was driving you while you were asleep, and whenever I slowed down or took hold of its halter, it turned aside, so I struck you lightly with the whip. I said, 'The people have come to you,' and you said, 'No harm upon you. Take, O Messenger of Allah, and retaliate.' He ﷺ said, 'I have forgiven.' He said, 'Retaliate, for it is dearer to me.' So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ struck him, and he said: I saw him writhing from it. Then he ﷺ said, 'O people, fear Allah. By Allah, no believer wrongs another believer except that Allah, the Exalted, will exact retribution for him on the Day of Resurrection.'
