حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ ، حَدَّثَنَا هُشَيْمٌ ، أَخْبَرَنَا سَيَّارٌ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُبَيْرَةَ ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ قَالَ : كُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فِي سَفَرٍ وَاشْتَرَى مِنِّي بَعِيرًا ، وَجَعَلَ لِي ظَهْرَهُ حَتَّى أَقْدَمَ الْمَدِينَةَ ، فَلَمَّا قَدِمْنَا أَتَيْتُهُ بِالْبَعِيرِ فَدَفَعْتُهُ إِلَيْهِ وَأَمَرَ لِي بِالثَّمَنِ ، ثُمَّ انْصَرَفْتُ ، وَإِذَا رَسُولُ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - قَدْ لَحِقَنِي ، قَالَ : قُلْتُ : لَعَلَّهُ بَدَا لَهُ فِيهِ ، قَالَ : فَلَمَّا أَتَيْتُهُ دَفَعَ إِلَيَّ الْبَعِيرَ قَالَ : هُوَ لَكَ ، قَالَ : فَمَرَرْتُ بِرَجُلٍ مِنَ الْيَهُودِ فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ ، قَالَ : فَجَعَلَ يَعْجَبُ ، قَالَ : وَاشْتَرَى مِنْكَ الْبَعِيرَ فَدَفَعَ إِلَيْكَ الثَّمَنَ ، ثُمَّ وَهَبَهُ لَكَ ؟ قَالَ : قُلْتُ : نَعَمْ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: "We were with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) on a journey, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) bought my camel from me and granted me permission to ride on its back until I reached Madinah. When we reached Madinah, I brought the camel to him (peace and blessings be upon him) and handed it over to him (peace and blessings be upon him), and he (peace and blessings be upon him) ordered that its price be paid to me. Then, as I turned back, suddenly the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) caught up with me from behind. I said (to myself): Perhaps something new has occurred to him (peace and blessings be upon him) about this deal. But when I came to him (peace and blessings be upon him), he (peace and blessings be upon him) handed the camel back to me and said: 'It is yours.'" Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) says: "Then I passed by a Jewish man and told him of this incident, whereupon he was astonished and said: 'Did he really buy the camel from you, pay you its full price, and then give the camel to you as a gift?' I replied: 'Yes.'"
