أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ غَالِبٍ الْخُوَارِزْمِيُّ الْحَافِظُ بِبَغْدَادَ، أنبأ أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ النَّيْسَابُورِيُّ، ثنا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ هُوَ ابْنُ زِيَادٍ السَّرِيُّ، ثنا ابْنُ أَبِي أُوَيْسٍ، حَدَّثَنِي مَالِكٌ، عَنْ وَهْبِ بْنِ كَيْسَانَ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّهُ قَالَ: بَعَثَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بَعْثًا قِبَلَ السَّاحِلِ وَأَمَّرَ أَبَا عُبَيْدَةَ بْنَ الْجَرَّاحِ وَهُمْ ثَلَاثُمِائَةٍ. قَالَ ⦗٤٢٣⦘ جَابِرٌ: وَأَنَا فِيهِمْ، فَخَرَجْنَا حَتَّى إِذَا كُنَّا بِبَعْضِ الطَّرِيقِ فَنِيَ الزَّادُ، فَأَمَرَ أَبُو عُبَيْدَةَ بِأَزْوَادِ ذَلِكَ الْجَيْشِ فَجُمِعَ فَكَانَ مِزْوَدَيْ تَمْرٍ. قَالَ: فَكَانَ يُقَوِّتُنَا كُلَّ يَوْمٍ يَعْنِي قَلِيلًا قَلِيلًا حَتَّى فَنِيَ فَلَمْ يَكُنْ يُصِيبُنَا كُلَّ يَوْمٍ إِلَّا تَمْرَةٌ، فَقُلْتُ: مَا تُغْنِي تَمْرَةٌ؟ فَقَالَ: لَقَدْ وَجَدْنَا فَقْدَهَا حِينَ فَنِيَتْ، ثُمَّ انْتَهَيْنَا إِلَى الْبَحْرِ فَإِذَا بِحُوتٍ مِثْلِ الظَّرِبِ فَأَكَلَ مِنْهُ ذَلِكَ الْجَيْشُ ثَمَانِ عَشْرَةَ لَيْلَةً، ثُمَّ أَمَرَ أَبُو عُبَيْدَةَ بِضِلَعَيْنِ مِنْ أَضْلَاعِهِ فَنُصِبَا ثُمَّ أَمَرَ بِرَاحِلَةٍ فَرُحِلَتْ، ثُمَّ مَرَّتْ تَحْتَهَا وَلَمْ يُصِبْهَا. رَوَاهُ الْبُخَارِيُّ فِي الصَّحِيحِ عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ أَبِي أُوَيْسٍ، وَأَخْرَجَهُ مُسْلِمٌ مِنْ وَجْهٍ آخَرَ عَنْ مَالِكٍ.
Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) sent Sayyiduna Abu Ubaydah (may Allah be pleased with him) towards the seashore as commander of three hundred men. Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I was among them too. When we had covered part of the journey, our provisions ran out. Sayyiduna Abu Ubaydah (may Allah be pleased with him) gathered the provisions of the whole army, and they amounted to two bags of dates. Each day we were given a little food, until that too ran out; then we would get one date a day. I asked: What good would one date do? He said: We felt its loss when it ran out. Then we came to the seashore, where a fish like a hillock was lying, and the whole army ate from it for eighteen days. Then, on the order of Sayyiduna Abu Ubaydah (may Allah be pleased with him), two of its ribs were set up, and a mount was saddled and made to pass beneath them, and it did not reach their height.
