أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ الْمُبَارَكِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُصْعَبُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ عَنْ سُهَيْلٍ عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ الْأَعْمَشِ عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ نَزَلَ فِي غَزْوَةٍ غَزَاهَا فَأَصَابَ أَصْحَابَهُ جُوعٌ وَفَنِيَتْ أَزْوَادُهُمْ فَجَاءُوا إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ يَشْكُونَ إِلَيْهِ مَا أَصَابَهُمْ وَيَسْتَأْذِنُونَهُ فِي أَنْ يَنْحَرُوا بَعْضَ رَوَاحِلَهُمْ فَأَذِنَ لَهُمْ فَخَرَجُوا فَمَرُّوا بِعُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ فَقَالَ «مِنْ أَيْنَ جِئْتُمْ؟ فَأَخْبَرُوهُ أَنَّهُمُ اسْتَأْذَنُوا رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فِي أَنْ يَنْحَرُوا بَعْضَ إِبِلِهِمْ» قَالَ فَأَذِنَ لَكُمْ قَالُوا «نَعَمْ» قَالَ فَإِنِّي أَسْأَلُكُمْ وَأُقْسِمُ عَلَيْكُمْ إِلَّا رَجَعْتُمْ مَعِي إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَرَجَعُوا مَعَهُ فَذَهَبَ عُمَرُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ «أَتَأْذَنُ لَهُمْ أَنْ يَنْحَرُوا رَوَاحِلَهُمْ؟ فَمَاذَا يَرْكَبُونَ؟» قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «فَمَاذَا تَصْنَعُ لَيْسَ مَعِي مَا أُعْطِيهِمْ؟» قَالَ بَلْ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ تَأْمُرُ مَنْ مَعَهُ فَضْلٌ مِنْ زَادٍ أَنْ يَأْتِيَ إِلَيْكَ فَتَجْمَعَهُ عَلَى شَيْءٍ وَتَدْعُوَ فِيهِ ثُمَّ تَقْسِمَهُ بَيْنَهُمْ فَفَعَلَ فَدَعَاهُمْ بِفَضْلِ أَزْوَادِهِمْ فَمِنْهُمُ الْآتِي بِالْقَلِيلِ وَالْكَثِيرِ فَجَعَلَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فِي شَيْءٍ ثُمَّ دَعَا فِيهِ مَا شَاءَ اللهُ أَنْ يَدْعُوَ ثُمَّ قَسَمَهُ بَيْنَهُمْ فَمَا بَقِيَ مِنَ الْقَوْمِ أَحَدٌ إِلَّا مَلَأَ مَا مَعَهُ مِنْ وِعَاءٍ وَفَضَلَ فَضْلٌ فَقَالَ عِنْدَ ذَلِكَ «أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ وَأَشْهَدُ أَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا رَسُولُ اللهِ مَنْ جَاءَ بِهَا اللهَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ غَيْرَ شَاكٍ أُدْخِلُهُ الْجَنَّةَ»

✧ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ camped during a military expedition he undertook, and his companions were struck by hunger and their provisions ran out. They came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ complaining to him of what had befallen them and asking his permission to slaughter some of their riding camels. He gave them permission, so they went out and passed by 'Umar b. al-Khattab. He said, 'Where have you come from?' They informed him that they had asked the Messenger of Allah ﷺ for permission to slaughter some of their camels. He said, 'Did he give you permission?' They said, 'Yes.' He said, 'I ask you and adjure you not to return with me to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ.' So they returned with him. 'Umar went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said, 'O Messenger of Allah, will you permit them to slaughter their riding camels? Then what will they ride?' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'What can I do? I do not have anything to give them.' He said, 'Rather, O Messenger of Allah, command whoever has surplus provisions to bring them to you, and gather them on something, supplicate over them, then distribute them among them.' He did so, and called them with the surplus of their provisions. Among them were those who brought little and those who brought much. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ put it in something, then supplicated over it as much as Allah willed him to supplicate, then distributed it among them. Not one of the people remained but filled what he had of vessels, and a surplus remained. At that he said: 'I bear witness that there is no god but Allah alone, with no partner, and I bear witness that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah. Whoever comes with it to Allah on the Day of Resurrection, not doubting, I will admit him to Paradise.'
