559 - حَدَّثَنَا الْحُمَيْدِيُّ قَالَ: ثنا سُفْيَانُ قَالَ: ثنا صَالِحُ بْنُ كَيْسَانَ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنَ يَسَارٍ يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ أَبِي رَافِعٍ قَالَ: «لَمْ يَأْمُرْنِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّي اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْ أَنْزِلَ ثَمَّ - يَعْنِي الْأَبْطَحَ - وَلَكِنِّي أَنَا ضَرَبْتُ قُبَّتَهُ ثُمَّ جَاءَهُ فَنَزَلَ»
Sayyiduna Abu Rafi’ (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) did not command me to camp, that is, to camp in the valley of Abtah. However, I pitched a tent there. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) came and he camped there.
