وَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ: حَدَّثَنَا جَعْفَرُ بْنُ عَوْنٍ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي جَعْفَرُ بْنُ عَمْرِو بْنِ أُمَيَّةَ الضَّمْرِيُّ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ:
إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ بَعَثَهُ وَحْدَهُ عَيْنًا إِلَى قُرَيْشٍ، فَجِئْتُ إِلَى خَشَبَةِ خُبَيْبٍ، وَأَنَا أَتَخَوَّفُ الْعُيُونَ، فَرَقِيتُ فِيهَا فَحَلَّيْتُ خُبَيْبًا فَوَقَعَ عَلَى الْأَرْضِ، فَانْتَبَذْتُ غَيْرَ بَعِيدٍ، وَالْتَفَتُّ فَلَمْ أَرَ خُبَيْبًا، وَلَكَأَنَّمَا ابْتَلَعَتْهُ الْأَرْضُ، قَالَ: فَمَا رُئِيَ خُبَيْبٌ رِمَّةً حَتَّى السَّاعَةِ

✧ Indeed, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent him alone as a spy to Quraysh. I came to the wooden cross of Khubayb, and I was afraid of being watched. I climbed up and untied Khubayb, and he fell to the ground. I withdrew to a place not far away, and I turned around but did not see Khubayb. It was as if the earth had swallowed him. He said: 'No trace of Khubayb's remains has been seen to this hour.'
