It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) sent us on a journey with three hundred mounts. Our leader was Sayyiduna Abu Ubaidah bin Jarrah. We camped on the shore, our provisions ran out, and we had to eat the leaves of trees. The sea cast out a fish called 'Anbar,' which we ate for half a month until our bodies became healthy and strong. One day, Sayyiduna Ubaidah took one of its ribs and stood it up, and passed the tallest camel under it, and it passed through. And for three days, he kept slaughtering three camels each day, then Sayyiduna Abu Ubaidah forbade him from doing so.

Then when the next part was revealed «أَوْ مِنْ تَحْتِ أَرْجُلِكُمْ» "or from beneath your feet," the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) again said: "O Allah, I seek refuge in Your Essence." Then when the next part was revealed «أَوْ يَلْبِسَكُمْ شِيَعًا وَيُذِيقَ بَعْضَكُمْ بَأْسَ بَعْضٍ» "or to confuse you in parties and make you taste the violence of one another," the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "This is lighter and easier than the previous ones."

(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ ، عَنْ عَمْرٍو ذَكَرُوا الرَّجُلَ يُهِلُّ بِعُمْرَةٍ فَيَحِلُّ ، هَلْ لَهُ أَنْ يَأْتِيَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَطُوفَ بِالصَّفَا وَالْمَرْوَةِ ؟ فَسَأَلْتُ جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ، فَقَالَ : لَا ، حَتَّى يَطُوفَ بَيْنَ الصَّفَا وَالْمَرْوَةِ وَسَأَلْتُ ابْنَ عُمَرَ ، فَقَالَ : قَدِمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَطَافَ بِالْبَيْتِ سَبْعًا ، وَصَلَّى خَلْفَ الْمَقَامِ رَكْعَتَيْنِ ، وَسَعَى بَيْنَ الصَّفَا وَالْمَرْوَةِ ، ثُمَّ قَالَ : لَقَدْ كَانَ لَكُمْ فِي رَسُولِ اللَّهِ أُسْوَةٌ حَسَنَةٌ سورة الأحزاب آية 21 .
Amr says that among the scholars, there was once a discussion about whether a person who puts on the Ihram for Umrah and then becomes halal (comes out of Ihram) can do so without performing Sa'i between Safa and Marwah. I asked this question to Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him), and he replied that until he performs Sa'i between Safa and Marwah, he will not become halal. I asked the same question to Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both), and he replied that when the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) came to Makkah, he performed seven circuits (Tawaf) around the Ka'bah, prayed two rak'ahs behind Maqam Ibrahim, and performed Sa'i between Safa and Marwah. Then he said: "Indeed, in the Messenger of Allah you have a good example."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) that once he came to Sayyidah Aisha and she was crying. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked her the reason for her crying. She said, "I am crying because all the people have come out of ihram and become lawful, but I have not been able to do so yet. People have performed tawaf, but I have not been able to do so yet, and the days of Hajj are upon us." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "This is something that Allah has decreed for all daughters, so you should perform ghusl, put on the ihram for Hajj, and perform Hajj." So she did so. And after her excuse was over, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to her, "Perform tawaf of the House of Allah and sa'i between Safa and Marwah. In this way, you will be free from the restrictions of your Hajj and Umrah ihram." She said, "O Messenger of Allah! I will always feel regret in my heart that I did not perform any tawaf until Hajj." Upon this, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to her brother Abdur Rahman (may Allah be pleased with him), "Take her and let her perform Umrah from Tan'eem."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked Abu Bakr As-Siddiq when he performed the Witr prayer.

The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked the same question to Sayyiduna Umar, and he replied: In the last part of the night.

After the Prophet’s (peace and blessings be upon him) passing, when the wealth from Bahrain arrived, I presented myself before Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) and said: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had said to me, if wealth comes from Bahrain, I will give you such and such and such and such. Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Take it. So I took the wealth from him. Then he said: Before a year passes, there is no zakat due on it for you. I counted them and they were fifteen hundred dirhams.

(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا نَصْرُ بْنُ بَابٍ ، عَنْ حَجَّاجٍ ، عَنْ عَطَاءٍ ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ ، قَالَ : " صَلَّى بِنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي الْعِيدَيْنِ بِغَيْرِ أَذَانٍ وَلَا إِقَامَةٍ ، ثُمَّ خَطَبَنَا ، ثُمَّ نَزَلَ ، فَمَشَى إِلَى النِّسَاءِ وَمَعَهُ بِلَالٌ ، لَيْسَ مَعَهُ غَيْرُهُ ، فَأَمَرَهُنَّ بِالصَّدَقَةِ ، فَجَعَلَتْ الْمَرْأَةُ تُلْقِي تُومَتَهَا وَخَاتَمَهَا إِلَى بِلَالٍ " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) led us in prayer without adhan or iqamah. After the prayer, he addressed us, and when he finished, he descended from the pulpit and went to the women and gave them admonition and advice. During this, Sayyiduna Bilal (may Allah be pleased with him) was with him; no one else was there. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) instructed them to give charity, so the women began handing over their earrings and rings to Bilal (may Allah be pleased with him).
Hadith 14330
حَدَّثَنَا حَدَّثَنَا نَصْرُ بْنُ بَابٍ ، عَنْ حَجَّاجٍ ، عَنِ الذَّيَّالِ بْنِ حَرْمَلَةَ ، قَالَ : سَأَلْتُ جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْأَنْصَارِيَّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا كَمْ كُنْتُمْ يَوْمَ الشَّجَرَةِ ؟ قَالَ : كُنَّا أَلْفًا وَأَرْبَعَ مِائَةٍ
Ziyal bin Harmalah says that I asked Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) about the number of participants in the Bay'at al-Ridwan, so he replied that our number was only fourteen hundred individuals.
Hadith 14330M
(حديث مرفوع) (حديث موقوف) قَالَ : وَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَرْفَعُ يَدَيْهِ فِي كُلِّ تَكْبِيرَةٍ مِنَ الصَّلَاةِ .
And it is narrated that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to raise his hands in prayer with every takbeer.
Hadith 14331
(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا نَصْرُ بْنُ بَابٍ ، عَنْ حَجَّاجٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ : " نَهَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْ بَيْعِ الْحَيَوَانِ بِالْحَيَوَانِ نَسِيئَةً اثْنَيْنِ بِوَاحِدٍ ، وَلَا بَأْسَ بِهِ يَدًا بِيَدٍ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade the transaction of exchanging two animals for one on credit, but if the transaction is done in cash, then there is no harm in it.
Hadith 14331M
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْد اللَّهِ ، قُلْتُ لِأَبِي : سَمِعْتُ أَبَا خَيْثَمَةَ ، يَقُولُ : نَصْرُ بْنُ بَابٍ كَذَّابٌ ! فَقَالَ : أَسْتَغْفِرُ اللَّهَ ، كَذَّابٌ ؟ ! إِنَّمَا عَابُوا عَلَيْهِ أَنَّهُ حَدَّثَ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الصَّائِغِ ، وَإِبْرَاهِيمُ الصَّائِغُ مِنْ أَهْلِ بَلَدِهِ ، فَلَا يُنْكَرُ أَنْ يَكُونَ سَمِعَ مِنْهُ .
Abdullah says that I said to my father, Imam Ahmad: I heard Abu Khaythamah saying that the narrator Nasr bin Bab is a liar. Upon this, he said "Astaghfirullah" and began to express astonishment, saying "a liar?" The only reason the hadith scholars have criticized him is that he narrated hadith from Ibrahim al-Saigh, and Ibrahim al-Saigh is from the people of his city, so hearing (hadith) from him is not something surprising.
Hadith 14332
(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا رَوْحٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا زَكَرِيَّا بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ دِينَار ، سَمِعْتُ جَابِرًا يُحَدِّثُ ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ " كَانَ يَنْقُلُ مَعَهُمْ حِجَارَةَ الْكَعْبَةِ ، وَعَلَيْهِ إِزَارٌ ، فَقَالَ لَهُ الْعَبَّاسُ عَمُّهُ يَا ابْنَ أَخِي ، لَوْ حَلَلْتَ إِزَارَكَ فَجَعَلْتَهُ عَلَى مَنْكِبَيْكَ دُونَ الْحِجَارَةِ ، قَالَ : فَحَلَّهُ فَجَعَلَهُ عَلَى مَنْكِبَيْهِ ، فَسَقَطَ مَغْشِيًّا ، عَلَيْهِ فَمَا رُئِيَ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ عُرْيَانًا .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) that when the construction of the Ka'bah began, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and Sayyiduna Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) started carrying stones. Sayyiduna Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "O nephew! Take off your waistcloth and place it on your shoulder so that your shoulder does not get injured by the stones." When the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) intended to do so, he fell unconscious and collapsed. After that day, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was never seen with his body uncovered by clothes.
Hadith 14333
(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا مُصْعَبُ بْنُ سَلَّامٍ ، سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْ أَبِي مَرَّتَيْنِ ، حَدَّثَنَا الْأَجْلَحُ ، عَنِ الذَّيَّالِ بْنِ حَرْمَلَةَ ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ، قَالَ : أَقْبَلْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِنْ سَفَرٍ ، حَتَّى إِذَا دَفَعْنَا إِلَى حَائِطٍ مِنْ حِيطَانِ بَنِي النَّجَّارِ ، إِذَا فِيهِ جَمَلٌ لَا يَدْخُلُ الْحَائِطَ أَحَدٌ إِلَّا شَدَّ عَلَيْهِ ، قَالَ : فَذَكَرُوا ذَلِكَ لِلنَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَجَاءَ حَتَّى أَتَى الْحَائِطَ ، فَدَعَا الْبَعِيرَ ، فَجَاءَ وَاضِعًا مِشْفَرَهُ إِلَى الْأَرْضِ ، حَتَّى بَرَكَ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ ، قَالَ : فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " هَاتُوا خِطَامَه " فَخَطَمَهُ وَدَفَعَهُ إِلَى صَاحِبِهِ ، قَالَ : ثُمَّ الْتَفَتَ إِلَى النَّاسِ ، فَقَالَ : " إِنَّهُ لَيْسَ شَيْءٌ بَيْنَ السَّمَاءِ وَالْأَرْضِ ، إِلَّا يَعْلَمُ أَنِّي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ، إِلَّا عَاصِيَ الْجِنِّ وَالْإِنْسِ " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) that once we were returning from a journey with the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him). When we reached near a garden of Najjar, we found out that there was a camel in that garden which would attack anyone who entered the garden. The people mentioned this to the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), so the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) came to the garden and called the camel. The camel, lowering its neck, came to the service of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) and sat down before him. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said, "Bring its bridle." The bridle was put in its mouth and the camel was handed over to its owner. Then, turning to the people, the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said, "Everything between the heavens and the earth knows that I am the Messenger of Allah, except the disobedient jinn and humans."
Hadith 14334
(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا مُصْعَبُ بْنُ سَلَّامٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا جَعْفَرٌ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ ، قَالَ : خَطَبَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَحَمِدَ اللَّهَ وَأَثْنَى عَلَيْهِ بِمَا هُوَ لَهُ أَهْلٌ ، ثُمَّ قَالَ : " أَمَّا بَعْدُ ، فَإِنَّ أَصْدَقَ الْحَدِيثِ كِتَابُ اللَّهِ ، وَإِنَّ أَفْضَلَ الْهَدْيِ هَدْيُ مُحَمَّدٍ ، وَشَرَّ الْأُمُورِ مُحْدَثَاتُهَا ، وَكُلَّ بِدْعَةٍ ضَلَالَةٌ " ، ثُمَّ يَرْفَعُ صَوْتَهُ ، وَتَحْمَرُّ وَجْنَتَاهُ ، وَيَشْتَدُّ غَضَبُهُ ، إِذَا ذَكَرَ السَّاعَةَ ، كَأَنَّهُ مُنْذِرُ جَيْشٍ ، قَالَ ، ثُمَّ يَقُولُ : " أَتَتْكُمْ السَّاعَةُ ، بُعِثْتُ أَنَا وَالسَّاعَةُ هَكَذَا وَأَشَارَ بِأُصْبُعَيْهِ السَّبَّابَةِ وَالْوُسْطَى صَبَّحَتْكُمْ السَّاعَةُ وَمَسَّتْكُمْ ، مَنْ تَرَكَ مَالًا ، فَلِأَهْلِهِ ، وَمَنْ تَرَكَ دَيْنًا أَوْ ضَيَاعًا ، فَإِلَيَّ وَعَلَيَّ " وَالضَّيَاعُ يَعْنِي وَلَدَهُ الْمَسَاكِينَ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) delivered a sermon to us, and after praising and glorifying Allah, he said: The truest word is the Book of Allah, the best way is the way of Muhammad, the worst things are newly invented matters, and every innovation is misguidance. Then, as he began to mention the Day of Judgment, his voice grew louder and louder. Then he said: The Hour has come upon you; I and the Hour have been sent like this—saying this, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) gestured with his index and middle fingers. The Hour will come upon you in the morning or in the evening. Whoever leaves behind wealth, it is for his family, and whoever leaves behind debt or children, it is my responsibility.
Hadith 14335
(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا عَبْد اللَّهِ ، قَالَ : وَجَدْتُ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ فِي كِتَابِ أَبِي بِخَطِّ يَدِهِ ، وَسَمِعْتُهُ فِي مَوْضِعٍ آخَرَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْيَمَانِ ، قَالَ : أَخْبَرَنِي شُعَيْبٌ ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ ، حَدَّثَنِي سِنَانُ بْنُ أَبِي سِنَانٍ الدُّؤَلِيُّ ، وَأَبُو سَلَمَةَ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ ، أَنَّ جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْأَنْصَارِيَّ وَكَانَ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَخْبَرَ ، أَنَّهُ غَزَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ غَزْوَةً قِبَلَ نَجْدٍ ، فَلَمَّا قَفَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَفَلَ مَعَهُمْ ، فَأَدْرَكَتْهُمْ الْقَائِلَةُ يَوْمًا فِي وَادٍ كَثِيرِ الْعِضَاهِ ، فَنَزَلَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، وَتَفَرَّقَ النَّاسُ فِي الْعِضَاهِ يَسْتَظِلُّونَ بِالشَّجَرِ ، وَنَزَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَسْتَظِلُّ تَحْتَ ظِلِّ شَجَرَةٍ ، فَعَلَّقَ بِهَا سَيْفَهُ ، قَالَ جَابِرٌ : فَنِمْنَا بِهَا نَوْمَةً ، ثُمَّ إِنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَدْعُونَا ، فَأَتَيْنَاهُ ، فَإِذَا عِنْدَهُ أَعْرَابِيٌّ جَالِسٌ ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " إِنَّ هَذَا اخْتَرَطَ سَيْفَهُ ، وَأَنَا نَائِمٌ ، فَاسْتَيْقَظْتُ وَهُوَ فِي يَدِهِ صَلْتًا ، فَقَالَ : مَنْ يَمْنَعُكَ مِنِّي ؟ فَقُلْتُ : اللَّهُ ، فَقَالَ مَنْ يَمْنَعُكَ مِنِّي ؟ فَقُلْتُ : اللَّهُ فَشَامَ سَيْفَه وَجَلَسَ ، فَلَمْ يُعَاقِبْهُ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَقَدْ فَعَلَ ذَلِكَ " .
Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) says that once I accompanied the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) for jihad towards Najd, and I was also with him on the return. On the way back, at noon, we reached a large valley full of thorny trees, so the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) stopped there. Everyone went off to the shade of the trees here and there. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) rested under an acacia tree and hung his sword on the tree, and we all fell asleep. We had slept only a little when we woke up and saw that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was calling us, and a Bedouin was sitting with him. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "While I was sleeping, this man drew my own sword against me. I woke up and saw that a naked sword was in his hand. He said: 'Now who will save you from me?' I said: 'Allah will save me.' Out of fear, the sword fell from his hand." Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) says that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did not take any revenge on him, even though he had done such a thing.
Hadith 14336
(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَكْرٍ ، أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ ، أَخْبَرَنِي عَمْرُو بْنُ دِينَارٍ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ، يَقُولُ : غَزَوْنَا جَيْشَ الْخَبَطِ ، وَأَمِيرُنَا أَبُو عُبَيْدَةَ بْنُ الْجَرَّاحِ ، فَجُعْنَا جُوعًا شَدِيدًا ، فَأَلْقَى لَنَا الْبَحْرُ حُوتًا لَمْ نَرَ مِثْلَهُ ، يُقَالُ لَهُ : الْعَنْبَرُ ، فَأَكَلْنَا مِنْهُ نِصْفَ شَهْرٍ ، وَأَخَذَ أَبُو عُبَيْدَةَ عَظْمًا مِنْ عِظَامِهِ ، فَكَانَ الرَّاكِبُ يَمُرُّ تَحْتَهُ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) that we participated in jihad with the army of Khabt, whose commander was Sayyiduna Abu Ubaidah. On the way, the severity of hunger troubled us greatly. Meanwhile, the sea threw out for us such a large fish that we had never seen a fish so big before; it was called ambergris (amber). We kept eating from it for half a month. Sayyiduna Abu Ubaidah took one of its bones and fixed it in the ground, and even a rider could easily pass underneath it.
Hadith 14337
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَكْرٍ ، أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ ، أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو الزُّبَيْرِ ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ يُخْبِرُ نَحْوًا مِنْ حديث عَمْرٍو هَذَا ، وَزَادَ فِيهِ قَالَ : وَزَوَّدَنَا النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ جِرَابًا مِنْ تَمْرٍ ، فَكَانَ يَقْبِضُ لَنَا قَبْضَةً قَبْضَةً ، ثُمَّ تَمْرَةً تَمْرَةً فَنَمْضُغُهَا ، وَنَشْرَبُ عَلَيْهَا الْمَاءَ حَتَّى اللَّيْلِ ، ثُمَّ نَفِدَ مَا فِي الْجِرَابِ ، فَكُنَّا نَجْتَنِي الْخَبَطَ بِقِسِيِّنَا ، فَجُعْنَا جُوعًا شَدِيدًا ، فَأَلْقَى لَنَا الْبَحْرُ حُوتًا مَيِّتًا ، فَقَالَ أَبُو عُبَيْدَةَ : غُزَاةٌ وَجِيَاعٌ ، فَكُلُوا ، فَأَكَلْنَا ، فَكَانَ أَبُو عُبَيْدَةَ يَنْصِبُ الضِّلَعَ مِنْ أَضْلَاعِهِ ، فَيَمُرُّ الرَّاكِبُ عَلَى بَعِيرِهِ تَحْتَهُ ، وَيَجْلِسُ النَّفَرُ الْخَمْسَةُ فِي مَوْضِعِ عَيْنِهِ ، فَأَكَلْنَا مِنْهُ وَادَّهَنَّا حَتَّى صَلَحَتْ أَجْسَامُنَا ، وَحَسُنَتْ سَحْنَاتُنَا ، قَالَ : فَلَمَّا قَدِمْنَا الْمَدِينَةَ ، قَالَ جَابِرٌ ، فَذَكَرْنَاهُ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقَالَ : " رِزْقٌ أَخْرَجَهُ اللَّهُ لَكُمْ ، فَإِنْ كَانَ مَعَكُمْ مِنْهُ شَيْءٌ فَأَطْعِمُونَاهُ " ، قَالَ : فَكَانَ مَعَنَا مِنْهُ شَيْءٌ ، فَأَرْسَلَ بِهِ إِلَيْهِ بَعْضُ الْقَوْمِ ، فَأَكَلَ مِنْهُ .
The previous narration is also reported from Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) in this way: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) gave us a bag of dates as provisions during a military expedition, and nothing else. At first, Sayyiduna Abu Ubaidah would give us each a handful of dates, then he started giving just one date. The narrator asked, "What would you do with a single date?" He replied, "We would chew and suck it like children, then drink water over it, and that would be our food until night." When the dates ran out, we would knock down leaves from the trees with our sticks, soak them in water, and eat them. In this way, we suffered from severe hunger. One day, while we were at the seashore, the sea cast out a dead fish for us. At first, Sayyiduna Abu Ubaidah said, "This is carrion," then he said, "We are warriors and hungry, so eat it." We stayed there for a month; we were three hundred men, and by eating it, we became healthy. We saw that we would extract oil from its eye sockets with a jug, and we would cut its meat like that of a bull. Sayyiduna Abu Ubaidah would set up one of its ribs, and a man mounted on a camel could pass underneath it, and a group of five men would sit in its eye socket. We ate it abundantly and applied its oil to our bodies until our bodies became healthy and our cheeks filled out. After returning to Madinah, we mentioned this to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and he said: "That was provision from Allah which Allah granted you. If you have any of it left, feed us as well." We had some of it left, which we sent to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and he also ate from it.
Hadith 14338
(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا هَاشِمُ بْنُ الْقَاسِمِ ، وَحَسَنُ بْنُ مُوسَى ، قَالَا : حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الزُّبَيْرِ ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ ، قَالَ : بَعَثَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَأَمَّرَ عَلَيْنَا أَبَا عُبَيْدَةَ نَتَلَقَّى عِيرًا لِقُرَيْشٍ ، وَزَوَّدَنَا جِرَابًا مِنْ تَمْرٍ ، لَمْ يَجِدْ لَنَا غَيْرَهُ ، قَالَ : فَكَانَ أَبُو عُبَيْدَةَ يُعْطِينَا تَمْرَةً تَمْرَةً ، قَالَ : قُلْتُ : كَيْفَ كُنْتُمْ تَصْنَعُونَ بِهَا ؟ قَالَ : نَمَصُّهَا كَمَا يَمَصُّ الصَّبِيُّ ، ثُمَّ نَشْرَبُ عَلَيْهَا مِنَ الْمَاءِ ، فَيَكْفِينَا يَوْمَنَا إِلَى اللَّيْلِ ، قَالَ : وَكُنَّا نَضْرِبُ بِعِصِيِّنَا الْخَبَطَ ، ثُمَّ نَبُلُّهُ بِالْمَاءِ ، فَنَأْكُلُهُ ، قَالَ : وَانْطَلَقْنَا عَلَى سَاحِلِ الْبَحْرِ ، فَرُفِعَ لَنَا عَلَى سَاحِلِ الْبَحْرِ كَهَيْئَةِ الْكَثِيبِ الضَّخْمِ ، فَأَتَيْنَاهُ فَإِذَا هُوَ دَابَّةٌ يُدْعَى الْعَنْبَرُ ، قَالَ أَبُو عُبَيْدَةَ : مَيْتَةٌ ، قَالَ حَسَنُ بْنُ مُوسَى ، ثُمَّ قَالَ : لَا بَلْ نَحْنُ رُسُلُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، وَقَالَ هَاشِمٌ فِي حَدِيثِهِ : قَالَ : لَا بَلْ نَحْنُ رُسُلُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَفِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ وَقَدْ اضْطُرِرْتُمْ فَكُلُوا ، وَأَقَمْنَا عَلَيْهِ شَهْرًا وَنَحْنُ ثَلَاثُ مِائَةٍ حَتَّى سَمِنَّا ، وَلَقَدْ رَأَيْتُنَا نَغْتَرِفُ مِنْ وَقْبِ عَيْنَيْهِ بِالْقِلَالِ الدُّهْنَ ، وَنَقْتَطِعُ مِنْهُ الْفِدَرَ كَالثَّوْرِ أَوْ كَقَدْرِ الثَّوْرِ ، قَالَ : وَلَقَدْ أَخَذَ مِنَّا أَبُو عُبَيْدَةَ ثَلَاثَةَ عَشَرَ رَجُلًا فَأَقْعَدَهُمْ فِي وَقْبِ عَيْنِهِ ، وَأَخَذَ ضِلَعًا مِنْ أَضْلَاعِهِ ، فَأَقَامَهَا ثُمَّ رَحَلَ أَعْظَمَ بَعِيرٍ مَعَنَا ، قَالَ حَسَنٌ ، ثُمَّ رَحَلَ أَعْظَمَ بَعِيرٍ كَانَ مَعَنَا فَمَرَّ مِنْ تَحْتِهَا ، وَتَزَوَّدْنَا مِنْ لَحْمِهِ وَشَائِقَ ، فَلَمَّا قَدِمْنَا الْمَدِينَةَ أَتَيْنَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَذَكَرْنَا ذَلِكَ لَهُ ، فَقَالَ : " هُوَ رِزْقٌ أَخْرَجَهُ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ لَكُمْ ، فَهَلْ مَعَكُمْ مِنْ لَحْمِهِ شَيْءٌ فَتُطْعِمُونَا " ، قَالَ : فَأَرْسَلْنَا إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِنْهُ ، فَأَكَلَهُ .

We saw that we would extract oil from its eye sockets with pitchers, and we would cut its meat like that of a bull. Sayyiduna Abu Ubaidah (may Allah be pleased with him) would stand up one of its ribs, and a man mounted on a camel could pass underneath it, and a group of five men would sit inside its eye socket. We ate it abundantly and applied its oil to our bodies until our bodies became healthy and our cheeks filled out. After returning to Madinah, we mentioned this to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and he said, "It was provision from Allah which Allah granted you. If you have any of it left, feed us as well." We had some of it left, which we sent to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and he also ate from it.
