(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا
حَسَنٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا
زُهَيْرٌ ، عَنْ
أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ ، عَنْ
جَابِرٍ ، قَالَ : أَرْسَلَنِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَهُوَ مُنْطَلِقٌ إِلَى بَنِي الْمُصْطَلِقِ ، فَأَتَيْتُهُ وَهُوَ يُصَلِّي عَلَى بَعِيرِهِ ، فَكَلَّمَتْهُ ، فَقَالَ بِيَدِهِ هَكَذَا ، وَأَشَارَ زُهَيْرٌ بِكَفِّهِ ، ثُمَّ كَلَّمْتُهُ ، فَقَالَ بِيَدِهِ هَكَذَا ، وَأَنَا أَسْمَعُهُ يَقْرَأُ ، وَيُومِئُ بِرَأْسِهِ ، فَلَمَّا فَرَغَ ، قَالَ : " مَا فَعَلْتَ فِي الَّذِي أَرْسَلْتُكَ لَهُ ؟ فَإِنَّهُ لَمْ يَمْنَعْنِي أَنْ أُكَلِّمَكَ إِلَّا أَنِّي كُنْتُ أُصَلِّي " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) that when the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was going towards Banu Mustaliq, he sent me on an errand. When I returned, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was praying on his camel. I wanted to speak, but the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) gestured with his hand. This happened twice. Then I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) reciting, and he was indicating with his head. After completing the prayer, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: What happened regarding the task I sent you for? I did not reply because I was praying.
