Mu'jam Kabir Tabarani 16464 — Sayyiduna Abu Ruhm al-Ghifari, who was

حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الدَّبَرِيُّ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّزَّاقِ، عَنْ مَعْمَرٍ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، أَخْبَرَنِي ابْنُ أَخِي أَبِي رُهْمٍ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَبَا رُهْمٍ الْغِفَارِيَّ، وَكَانَ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الَّذِينَ بَايَعُوا تَحْتَ الشَّجَرَةِ، قَالَ: غَزَوْتُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ تَبُوكًا، فَلَمَّا سِرْنَا لَيْلَةً سِرْتُ قَرِيبًا مِنْهُ فَأُلْقِيَ عَلِيَّ النُّعَاسُ، فَطَفِقْتُ أَسْتَيْقِظُ وَقَدْ دَنَتْ رَاحِلَتِي مِنْ رَاحِلَتِهِ، فَيُفْزِعُنِي دُنُوُّهَا خَشْيَةَ أَنْ أُصِيبَ رِجْلَهُ فِي الْغَرْزِ، فَأُؤَخِّرُ رَاحِلَتِي، حَتَّى غَلَبَ عَلَى عَيْنِي بَعْضُ اللَّيْلِ فَزَاحَمَتْ رَاحِلَتِي رِجْلَهُ فِي الْغَرْزِ فَأَصَابَتْ رِجْلَهُ، فَلَمْ أَسْتَيْقِظْ إِلَّا بِقَوْلِهِ: «حَسِّ» ، فَقُلْتُ: اسْتَغْفِرْ لِي يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، فَقَالَ: «سِرْ» ، فَطَفِقَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَسْتَخْبِرُنِي عَمَّنْ تَخَلَّفَ مِنْ بَنِي غِفَارٍ فَأُخْبِرُهُ، فَإِذَا هُوَ يَسْأَلُنِي: «مَا فَعَلَ الْحُمُرُ الطِّوَالُ الثَّطَاطُ؟» ، فَحَدَّثْتُهُ بِتَخَلُّفِهِمْ، فَقَالَ: «مَا فَعَلَ النَّفَرُ السُّودُ» ، أَوْ قَالَ: «الْقِصَارُ الْجِعَادُ الثَّطَاطُ الَّذِينَ لَهُمْ نِعَمٌ بِشَبَكَةٍ سُرُحٌ؟» ، قَالَ: فَذَكَرْتُ فِي بَنِي غِفَارٍ فَلَمْ أَذْكُرْهُمْ، حَتَّى ذَكَرْتُ رَهْطًا مِنْ أَسْلَمَ، فَقُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أُولَئِكَ رَهْطٌ مِنْ أَسْلَمَ قَدْ تَخَلَّفُوا، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «فَمَا يَمْنَعُ أَحَدَ أُولَئِكَ حِينَ تَخَلَّفَ أَنْ يَحْمِلَ عَلَى بَعِيرٍ مِنْ إِبِلِهِ امْرَأً نَشِيطًا فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ؟، فَإِنَّ أَعَزَّ أَهْلِي عَلِيَّ أَنْ يَتَخَلَّفَ عَنِّي الْمُهَاجِرُونَ، مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ، وَالْأَنْصَارُ، وَأَسْلَمُ، وَغِفَارٌ»
Sayyiduna Abu Ruhm al-Ghifari (may Allah be pleased with him), who was one of the Companions of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) who gave the pledge beneath the tree, said: I took part with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) in the expedition of Tabuk. One night, as we were travelling, I was riding close to him (peace and blessings be upon him) when drowsiness overcame me. I kept waking with a start to find that my mount had come close to his (peace and blessings be upon him) mount, and its closeness alarmed me, for fear that it might strike his (peace and blessings be upon him) foot in the stirrup, so I would pull my mount back. Until, during part of the night, my eyes were overcome by sleep, and my mount pressed against his (peace and blessings be upon him) foot in the stirrup and struck his (peace and blessings be upon him) foot. I only woke up at his (peace and blessings be upon him) saying "Hass!" (Ouch). I said: "O Messenger of Allah! Seek forgiveness for me." He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Keep going." Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) began asking me about those of Banu Ghifar who had stayed behind, and I would tell him. Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "What became of the tall, red-complexioned people with sparse beards?" So I told him of their staying behind. Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "What became of those black people," or he said: "the short, curly-haired people with sparse beards, whose livestock graze at Shabakah?" I tried to recall them among Banu Ghifar but could not, until I remembered a group of Banu Aslam, so I said: "O Messenger of Allah! Those are a group of Banu Aslam who have stayed behind." The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Then what prevented any one of them, while staying behind, from mounting an energetic man on one of his camels and sending him in the path of Allah? For the hardest thing for me is that my own people, the Muhajirun of Quraysh, the Ansar, Aslam and Ghifar, should stay behind from me."
