Hadith 17

أَخْبَرَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُوسَى، عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيل بْنِ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ، عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ، قَالَ: خَرَجْتُ مَعَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي سَفَرٍ، وَكَانَ لَا يَأْتِي الْبَرَازَ حَتَّى يَتَغَيَّبَ فَلَا يُرَى، فَنَزَلْنَا بِفَلَاةٍ مِنْ الْأَرْضِ لَيْسَ فِيهَا شَجَرةٌ، وَلَا عَلَمٌ، فَقَالَ: "يَا جَابِرُ، اجْعَلْ فِي إِدَاوَتِكَ مَاءً ثُمَّ انْطَلِقْ بِنَا"، قَالَ: فَانْطَلَقْنَا حَتَّى لَا نُرَى، فَإِذَا هُوَ بِشَجَرَتَيْنِ بَيْنَهُمَا أَرْبَعُ أَذْرُعٍ، فَقَالَ: "يَا جَابِرُ، انْطَلِقْ إِلَى هَذِهِ الشَّجَرَةِ، فَقُلْ: يُقُولُ لَكِ رَسولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّي اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: الْحَقِي بِصَاحِبَتِكِ حَتَّى أَجْلِسَ خَلْفَكُمَا"، فَرَجَعَتْ إِلَيْهَا، فَجَلَسَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ خَلْفَهُمَ، ثُمَّ رَجَعَتَا إِلَى مَكَانِهِمَا، فَرَكِبْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَرَسُولُ اللَّهِ بَيْنَنَا كَأَنَّمَا عَلَيْنَا الطَّيْرُ تُظِلُّنَا، فَعَرَضَتْ لَهُ امْرَأَةٌ مَعَهَا صَبِيٌّ لَهَا، فَقَالَتْ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، إِنَّ ابْنِي هَذَا يَأْخُذُهُ الشَّيْطَانُ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ ثَلَاثَ مِرَارٍ، قَالَ: فَتَنَاوَلَ الصَّبِيَّ فَجَعَلَهُ بَيْنَهُ وَبَيْنَ مُقَدَّمِ الرَّحْلِ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: "اخْسَأْ عَدُوَّ اللَّهِ، أَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، اخْسَأْ عَدُوَّ اللَّهِ أَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ثَلَاثًا"، ثُمَّ دَفَعَهُ إِلَيْهَا، فَلَمَّا قَضَيْنَا سَفَرَنَا، مَرَرْنَا بِذَلِكَ الْمَكَانِ فَعَرَضَتْ لَنَا الْمَرْأَةُ مَعَهَا صَبِيُّهَا، وَمَعَهَا كَبْشَانِ تَسُوقُهُمَا، فَقَالَتْ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ اقْبَلْ مِنِّي هَدِيَّتِي، فَوَالَّذِي بَعَثَكَ بِالْحَقِّ مَا عَادَ إِلَيْهِ بَعْدُ، فَقَالَ: "خُذُوا مِنْهَا وَاحِدًا وَرُدُّوا عَلَيْهَا الْآخَرَ"، قَالَ: ثُمَّ سِرْنَا وَرَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بَيْنَنَا كَأَنَّمَا عَلَيْنَا الطَّيْرُ تُظِلُّنَا، فَإِذَا جَمَلٌ نَادٌّ حَتَّى إِذَا كَانَ بَيْنَ سِمَاطَيْنِ خَرَّ سَاجِدًا، فَجَلَسَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، وَقَالَ عَلَيَّ النَّاسَ: "مَنْ صَاحِبُ الْجَمَلِ ؟"فَإِذَا فِتْيَةٌ مِنْ الْأَنْصَارِ، قَالُوا: هُوَ لَنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، قَالَ: "فَمَا شَأْنُهُ"؟، قَالُوا: اسْتَنَيْنَا عَلَيْهِ مُنْذُ عِشْرِينَ سَنَةً وَكَانَتْ بِهِ شُحَيْمَةٌ فَأَرَدْنَا أَنْ نَنْحَرَهُ فَنَقْسِمَهُ بَيْنَ غِلْمَانِنَا، فَانْفَلَتَ مِنَّا، قَالَ: "بِيعُونِيهِ"، قَالُوا: لَا، بَلْ هُوَ لَكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، قَالَ: "أَمَّا لا، فَأَحْسِنُوا إِلَيْهِ حَتَّى يَأْتِيَهُ أَجَلُهُ"، قَالَ الْمُسْلِمُونَ عِنْدَ ذَلِكَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، نَحْنُ أَحَقُّ بِالسُّجُودِ لَكَ مِنْ الْبَهَائِمِ، قَالَ: "لَا يَنْبَغِي لِشَيْءٍ أَنْ يَسْجُدَ لِشَيْءٍ وَلَوْ كَانَ ذَلِكَ، كَانَ النِّسَاءُ لِأَزْوَاجِهِنَّ".
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) that I set out on a journey with the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). He would go so far away to relieve himself that he would not be visible. We camped in such a barren plain where there was neither a tree nor a mountain. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Jabir! Fill water in your bucket and come with us." Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) said: We set out and became hidden from the people's sight and reached two trees whose distance between them was four arm-lengths. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O Jabir, go to the tree and say that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) says to you to join your companion tree so that I may sit behind you for privacy." He went and said so, and thus the tree joined the other, and the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) went behind them (to relieve himself) and sat down. Then the trees returned to their places. After that, we mounted with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and he was sitting among us. It seemed as if birds were shading us. Then a woman came to him, and with her was her child. She said: O Messenger of Allah! The devil takes away my child three times a day. Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) took the child and seated him between himself and the saddle and said: "O enemy of Allah, go away, I am the Messenger of Allah. Go away, O enemy of Allah, I am the Messenger of Allah." He said this three times, then returned the child to his mother. Then, when we returned from our journey and passed by the same place, that same woman came before us, driving two rams with her child, and said: O Messenger of Allah! Please accept this gift from me. By the One Who sent you with the truth, since then the devil has not come again. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Take one ram and return the other to her." Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) said: After that, we set out, and the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was among us, and it seemed as if birds were shading us. Suddenly, we saw a frightened camel. When it came between the two sides of the road, it fell down in prostration. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) sat down and said: "Call the people, whose camel is this?" Some young men from the Ansar said: O Messenger of Allah! This is our camel. He said: "What is its matter?" They said: We have been drawing water from it for twenty years. There is a piece of fat in its body, so we intended to slaughter it and distribute it among our slaves, but it became agitated and ran away from us. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Sell it to me." They said: No, O Messenger of Allah, you may take it as you wish. He said: "If you do not sell it, then treat it well until its death comes." At that time, the Muslims said: O Messenger of Allah, we are more deserving to prostrate to you than these animals. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "It is not permissible for anyone to prostrate to another (human). If it were permissible, then women would have been allowed to prostrate to their husbands."
