سِرْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي غَزْوَةِ بَطْنِ بُوَاطٍ وَهُوَ يَطْلُبُ الْمَجْدِيَّ بْنَ عَمْرٍو الْجُهَنِيَّ ، وَكَانَ النَّاضِحُ يَعْقُبُهُ مِنَّا الْخَمْسَةُ وَالسِّتَّةُ وَالسَّبْعَةُ ، فَدَارَتْ عُقْبَةُ رَجُلٍ مِنْ الْأَنْصَارِ عَلَى نَاضِحٍ لَهُ ، فَأَنَاخَهُ فَرَكِبَهُ ثُمَّ بَعَثَهُ ، فَتَلَدَّنَ عَلَيْهِ بَعْضَ التَّلَدُّنِ ، فَقَالَ لَهُ : شَأْ لَعَنَكَ اللَّهُ ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : مَنْ هَذَا اللَّاعِنُ بَعِيرَهُ ؟ ، قَالَ : أَنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، قَالَ انْزِلْ عَنْهُ ، فَلَا تَصْحَبْنَا بِمَلْعُونٍ لَا تَدْعُوا عَلَى أَنْفُسِكُمْ ، وَلَا تَدْعُوا عَلَى أَوْلَادِكُمْ وَلَا تَدْعُوا عَلَى أَمْوَالِكُمْ لَا تُوَافِقُوا مِنَ اللَّهِ سَاعَةً ، يُسْأَلُ فِيهَا عَطَاءٌ ، فَيَسْتَجِيبُ لَكُمْ
It is reported on the same authority: We set out along with Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) on an expedition of Batn Buwat. He (the Holy Prophet) was in search of al-Majdi bin 'Amr al-Juhani. (We had so meagre equipment) that five. Six or seven of us had one camel to ride and so we mounted it turn by turn. Once there was the turn of an Ansari to ride upon the camel. He made it kneel down to ride over it (and after having mounted it), he tried to raise it up but it hesitated. So he said. May there be curse of Allah upon you! Thereupon Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said: Who is there to curse his camel? He said: Allah's Messenger, it is I. Thereupon he said: Get down from the camel and let us not have in our company the cursed one. Don't curse your own selves, nor your children. Nor your belongings. There is the possibility that your curse may synchronies with the time when Allah is about to confer upon you what you demand and thus your prayer may be readily responded.
