وَقَالَ الْحَارِثُ : حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الزُّهْرِيُّ ، ثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ فُلَيْحٍ ، ثَنَا أَبُو صَالِحٍ ، مَوْلَى عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَيَّاشِ بْنِ أَبِي رَبِيعَةَ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَامِرِ بْنِ رَبِيعَةَ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ : بَعَثَنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي سَرِيَّةِ نَخْلَةَ وَمَعَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ سُرَاقَةَ ، وَكَانَ رَجُلًا لَطِيفَ الْبَطْنِ ، طَوِيلًا فَجَاعَ فَانْثَنَى صُلْبُهُ ، فَكَانَ لَا يَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ يَمْشِيَ ، فَسَقَطَ عَلَيْنَا ، فَأَخَذْنَا صَفِيحَةً مِنْ حِجَارَةٍ فَرَبَطْنَاهَا عَلَى بَطْنِهِ ، ثُمَّ شَدَدْنَاهَا إِلَى صُلْبِهِ ، فَمَشَى مَعَنَا ، فَجِئْنَا حَيًّا مِنَ الْعَرَبِ فَضَيَّفُونَا فَمَشَى مَعَنَا ، ثُمَّ قَالَ : كُنْتُ أَحْسَبُ : الرِّجْلَيْنِ يَحْمِلَانِ الْبَطْنَ ، فَإِذَا الْبَطْنُ يَحْمِلُ الرِّجْلَيْنِ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Amir bin Rabi'ah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) sent us on a military expedition (sariyyah) towards Nakhlah. With us was Sayyiduna Amr bin Suraqah (may Allah be pleased with him); he was a tall man with a slender waist. (During the journey) he was struck by such severe hunger that (from weakness) his back bent, and, losing the strength to walk, he collapsed upon us. So we took a flat piece of stone, placed it on his stomach and tied it firmly around his back, after which he was able to walk with us. Then we came to an Arab tribe who hosted us (and fed us), and after that he walked with us (with ease) and said: "I used to think that the feet carry the stomach, but the truth has become clear that it is the stomach that carries the feet."
