حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو دَاوُدَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنِ الْأَزْرَقِ بْنِ قَيْسٍ، قَالَ:
كُنْتُ قَاعِدًا عَلَى جُرُفٍ بِالْأَهْوَازِ فَإِذَا شَيْخٌ يُصَلِّي قَدْ عَمَدَ إِلَى عِنَانِ دَابَّتِهِ فَجَعَلَهُ فِي يَدِهِ، فَنَكَصَتِ الدَّابَّةُ فَنَكَصَ مَعَهَا، وَمَعَنَا رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْخَوَارِجِ فَجَعَلَ يَسُبُّهُ، فَلَمَّا قَضَى صَلَاتَهُ قَالَ: قَدْ سَمِعْتُ كَلَامَكُمْ، غَزَوْتُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ غَزْوَةَ كَذَا وَغَزْوَةَ كَذَا، وَشَهِدْتُ أَمْرَهُ وَتَيْسِيرَهُ "، وَأَنْ أُمْسِكَ دَابَّتِي أَهْوَنُ عَلَيَّ مِنْ أَنْ أَدَعَهَا فَتَأْتِيَ مَأْلَفَهَا فَيَشُقَّ عَلَيَّ

✧ I was sitting on a riverbank in al-Ahwaz, and there was an old man praying who had taken hold of his mount's rein and placed it in his hand. The mount backed up, so he backed up with it. With us was a man from the Khawarij who began to insult him. When he finished his prayer, he said: I have heard your words. I fought with the Messenger of God ﷺ in such-and-such an expedition and such-and-such an expedition, and I witnessed his command and his facilitation. Holding my mount is easier for me than leaving it to go to its accustomed place, which would be hard for me.
