حَدَّثَنَا الْمِقْدَامُ، ثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ صَالِحٍ، حَدَّثَنِي مُوسَى بْنُ عُلَيِّ بْنِ رَبَاحٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ، قَالَ:
اسْتَتْبَعَنِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لَيْلَةً، فَقَالَ: إِنَّ نَفَرًا مِنَ الْجِنِّ خَمْسَةَ عَشَرَ بَنُو إِخْوَةٍ وَبَنُو عَمٍّ يَأْتُونِي اللَّيْلَةَ فَأَقْرَأُ عَلَيْهِمُ الْقُرْآنَ، فَانْطَلَقْتُ مَعَهُ إِلَى الْمَكَانِ الَّذِي أَرَادَ، فَجَعَلَ لِي خَطًّا ثُمَّ أَجْلَسَنِي فِيهِ، وَقَالَ: " لَا تَخْرُجَنَّ مِنْ هَذَا "، فَبِتُّ فِيهِ حَتَّى أَتَانِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَعَ السَّحَرِ، فِي يَدِهِ عَظْمُ حَائِلٍ، وَرَوْثَةٌ، وَحُمَمَةٌ، فَقَالَ: " إِذَا أَتَيْتَ الْخَلَاءَ فَلَا تَسْتَنْجِيَنَّ بِشَيْءٍ مِنْ هَذَا "، قَالَ: فَلَمَّا أَصْبَحْتُ قُلْتُ: لَأَعْلَمَنَّ حَيْثُ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ، فَذَهَبْتُ فَرَأَيْتُ مَوْضِعَ سَبْعِينَ بَعِيرًا

✧ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ took me along with him one night and said: "A group of jinn—fifteen, brothers and cousins—will come to me tonight, and I will recite the Quran to them." I went with him to the place he intended. He drew a line for me, seated me inside it, and said: "Do not leave this." I stayed there until the Messenger of Allah ﷺ came to me at dawn, holding in his hand a dry bone, a piece of dung, and a piece of charcoal. He said: "When you go to relieve yourself, do not clean yourself with any of these." The narrator said: When morning came, I said: "I will certainly know where the Messenger of Allah ﷺ had been." So I went and saw the spot of seventy camels.
