Al-Mu'jam al-Awsat 9143 — his father died and left behind a debt

حَدَّثَنَا مَسْعَدَةُ ، ثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ الْمُنْذِرِ ، نَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ يَحْيَى بْنِ عُرْوَةَ ، عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ ، عَنْ وَهْبِ بْنِ كَيْسَانَ . عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ ، أَنَّ أَبَاهُ تُوُفِّيَ وَتَرَكَ عَلَيْهِ ثَلَاثِينَ وَسْقًا لِرَجُلٍ مِنَ الْيَهُودِ ، فَاسْتَنْظَرَهُ جَابِرٌ ، فَأَبَى أَنْ يُنْظِرَهُ ، وَكَلَّمَ جَابِرٌ رَسُولَ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - يَشْفَعُ إِلَيْهِ ، فَجَاءَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فَكَلَّمَ الْيَهُودِيَّ لِيَأْخُذَ تَمْرَهُ كُلَّهُ ، فَأَبَى عَلَيْهِ ، وَكَلَّمَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - أَنْ يُنْظِرَهُ ، فَأَبَى ، فَدَخَلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فَأَوْفَاهُ ثَلَاثِينَ وَسْقًا ، وَفَضَلَ لَهُ عَشَرَةُ أَوْسُقٍ ، فَجَاءَ جَابِرٌ رَسُولَ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فَأَخْبَرَهُ بِالَّذِي فَضَلَ فَوَجَدَ رَسُولَ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - يُصَلِّي الْعَصْرَ ، فَلَمَّا انْصَرَفَ رَسُولُ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - جَاءَهُ فَأَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّهُ قَدْ أَوْفَاهُ ، وَأَخْبَرَهُ بِالْفَضْلِ الَّذِي فَضَلَ ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : أَخْبِرْ بِذَلِكَ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ ، فَذَهَبَ جَابِرٌ إِلَى عُمَرَ فَأَخْبَرَهُ ، فَقَالَ : لَقَدْ عَلِمْتُ حِينَ مَشَى فِيهَا رَسُولُ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - لَيُبَارِكَنَّ اللهُ فِيهَا I " .
لَمْ يَرْوِ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ عَنْ وَهْبِ بْنِ كَيْسَانَ إِلَّا هِشَامُ بْنُ عُرْوَةَ ، وَلَا رَوَاهُ عَنْ هِشَامٍ إِلَّا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ يَحْيَى ، تَفَرَّدَ بِهِ إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ الْمُنْذِرِ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with them both) that his father died and left behind a debt of thirty wasq (of dates) owed to a Jew. Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) asked him for more time, but he refused to give him more time. Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) spoke to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) so that he (peace and blessings be upon him) would intercede with him. So the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) came to him and spoke to the Jew, asking him to take all the dates (of the orchard), but he refused. Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) spoke to him about giving more time, and again he refused. Then the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) entered (the orchard) and paid him the full thirty wasq, and ten wasq were even left over. Then Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) to tell him about the dates that were left over, and he found the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) offering the Asr prayer. When he (peace and blessings be upon him) finished the prayer, he came to him (peace and blessings be upon him) and told him that the Jew had been paid in full, and also told him about the dates that were left over. So the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Tell Umar bin al-Khattab about this as well." So Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) went to Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) and told him. He said: "When the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) walked in it (the orchard), I knew at that very moment that Allah Almighty would surely bless it."
Imam al-Tabarani (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "No one narrated this hadith from Wahb bin Kaysan except Hisham bin Urwah, and no one narrated it from Hisham except Abdullah bin Muhammad bin Yahya, and Ibrahim bin al-Mundhir is alone in narrating it."
