Musnad Abi Ya'la 116 — Sayyiduna Abu Bakr bought a camel saddle
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو خَيْثَمَةَ ، حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ عُمَرَ ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْرَائِيلُ ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ ، عَنِ الْبَرَاءِ بْنِ عَازِبٍ ، قَالَ : اشْتَرَى أَبُو بَكْرٍ مِنْ أَبِي رَحْلًا بِثَلَاثَةَ عَشَرَ دِرْهَمًا ، فَقَالَ : مُرِ الْبَرَاءَ يَحْمِلْهُ إِلَى رَحْلِي ، فَقَالَ : لَا ، حَتَّى تُخْبِرَنِي كَيْفَ خَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِنْ مَكَّةَ إِلَى الْمَدِينَةِ ، فَقَالَ : ارْتَحَلْنَا فَاحْتُبِسْنَا يَوْمَنَا وَلَيْلَتَنَا حَتَّى قَامَ ظُهْرًا - أَوْ قَالَ : قَامَ قَائِمُ الظَّهِيرَةِ - فَرَمَيْتُ بِبَصَرِي فَإِذَا أَنَا بِصَخْرَةٍ لَهَا بَقِيَّةٌ مِنْ ظِلٍّ فَرَشَشْتُهُ ، وَفَرَشْتُ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِيهِ فَرْوَةً ، فَقُلْتُ : نَمْ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، ثُمَّ انْطَلَقْتُ أَنْفُضُ مَا حَوْلِي ، هَلْ أَرَى مِنَ الطَّلَبِ أَحَدًا ؟ فَإِذَا أَنَا بِرَاعِي غَنَمٍ يُرِيدُ مِنَ الصَّخْرَةِ مِثْلَ مَا أَرَدْتُ ، فَقُلْتُ : مَنْ أَنْتَ يَا غُلَامُ ؟ قَالَ : لِرَجُلٍ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ ، فَعَرَفْتُهُ ، فَقُلْتُ : هَلْ فِي غَنَمِكَ مِنْ لَبَنٍ ؟ قَالَ : نَعَمْ ، قُلْتُ : هَلْ أَنْتَ حَالِبُنَا ؟ قَالَ : نَعَمْ ، فَأَمَرْتُهُ فَاعْتَقَلَ شَاةً مِنَ الْغَنَمِ ، فَأَمَرْتُهُ فَنَفَضَ ضَرْعَهَا ، ثُمَّ أَمَرْتُهُ فَنَفَضَ كَفَّيْهِ مِنَ الْغُبَارِ ، فَحَلَبَ لِي كُثْبَةً مِنْ لَبَنٍ وَمَعِي إِدَاوَةٌ عَلَى فَمِهَا خِرْقَةٌ ، فَصَبَبْتُ الْمَاءَ عَلَى اللَّبَنِ ، ثُمَّ أَتَيْتُ بِهِ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَوَافَقْتُهُ قَدِ اسْتَيْقَظَ ، قُلْتُ : اشْرَبْ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، وَارْتَحَلْنَا ، فَلَمْ يَلْحَقْنَا مِنَ الطَّلَبِ أَحَدٌ غَيْرُ سُرَاقَةَ بْنِ مَالِكِ بْنِ جُعْشُمٍ عَلَى فَرَسٍ لَهُ ، فَقُلْتُ : هَذَا الطَّلَبُ قَدْ لَحِقَنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، قَالَ : لَا تَحْزَنْ إِنَّ اللهَ مَعَنَا ، فَلَمَّا دَنَا دَعَا عَلَيْهِ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَسَاخَ فَرَسُهُ فِي الْأَرْضِ إِلَى بَطْنِهِ ، وَوَثَبَ عَنْهُ ، وَقَالَ : يَا مُحَمَّدُ ، قَدْ عَلِمْتُ أَنَّ هَذَا عَمَلُكَ ، فَادْعُ اللهَ أَنْ يُخَلِّصَنِي مِمَّا أَنَا فِيهِ ، وَلَكَ عَلَيَّ لَأُعَمِّيَنَّ عَلَى مَنْ وَرَائِي ، وَهَذِهِ كِنَانَتِي فَخُذْ سَهْمًا مِنْهَا ، فَإِنَّكَ سَتَمُرُّ عَلَى إِبِلِي وَغِلْمَانِي بِمَكَانِ كَذَا وَكَذَا ، فَخُذْ مِنْهَا حَاجَتَكَ ، فَقَالَ : لَا حَاجَةَ لِي فِي إِبِلِكَ ، فَقَدِمْنَا إِلَى الْمَدِينَةِ لَيْلًا ، فَتَنَازَعُوا أَيُّهُمْ يَنْزِلُ عَلَيْهِمْ ، فَقَالَ : أَنْزِلُ عَلَى بَنِي النَّجَّارِ أَخْوَالِ عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ أُكْرِمُهُمْ بِذَلِكَ ، فَصَعِدَ الرِّجَالُ وَالنِّسَاءُ فَوْقَ الْبُيُوتِ ، وَتَفَرَّقَ الْغِلْمَانُ وَالْخَدَمُ فِي الطُّرُقِ يُنَادُونَ : يَا مُحَمَّدُ ، يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، يَا مُحَمَّدُ ، يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna al-Bara' bin Azib (may Allah be pleased with him) that Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) bought a camel saddle from my father (Sayyiduna Azib (may Allah be pleased with him)) for thirteen dirhams, and said: "Tell al-Bara' to carry it to my house." My father said: "No, not until you tell me how the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) went from Makkah to Madinah." Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "We set out (for the Hijrah) and travelled the whole day and the whole night until, when it was midday and the sun grew hot, my eye fell on a rock that still had some shade. I sprinkled water there (so that the ground would cool), spread a fur for the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and said: 'O Messenger of Allah, rest.' Then I went out to survey the surroundings, to see whether any pursuer could be seen. Suddenly I came upon a shepherd who wanted from that rock the same benefit that we wanted. I asked: 'Boy, whose slave are you?' He named a man of Quraysh whom I recognised. I asked: 'Is there milk in your goats?' He said: 'Yes.' I asked: 'Will you milk for us?' He said: 'Yes.' So I instructed him, and he caught hold of a goat. I told him to dust off its udder and also to clean his hands of dust. Then he milked a little milk for me into a vessel. I had with me a water-skin with a cloth tied over its mouth, and I poured water onto the milk (to reduce its warmth). Then I brought it to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and he had woken up. I said: 'O Messenger of Allah, drink.' Then we continued our journey, and none of the pursuers reached us except Suraqah bin Malik bin Ju'shum, who was riding his horse. I said: 'O Messenger of Allah, this pursuer has caught up with us.' He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'Do not grieve; indeed Allah is with us.' When he drew near, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) supplicated against him (that he be seized), and his horse's legs sank into the ground up to its belly. He jumped off the horse and said: 'O Muhammad, I know that this is your doing, so pray to Allah to rescue me from this plight. I promise you that I will mislead those who are coming behind me (that is, turn them back). This is my quiver; take an arrow from it. You will pass by my camels and my slaves at such-and-such a place; take from there whatever (camels) you need.' He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'I have no need of your camels.' So we reached Madinah at night, and the people of Madinah disputed over with whom he (peace and blessings be upon him) should stay. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'I will stay with Banu al-Najjar, the maternal uncles of Abd al-Muttalib; by this I wish to honour them.' So the men and women climbed onto the roofs of the houses, and the boys and servants came out into the streets calling: 'O Muhammad! O Messenger of Allah! O Muhammad! O Messenger of Allah!'"
