أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو الْوَلِيدِ، ثنا جَعْفَرُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ نَصْرٍ، ثنا عَلِيُّ بْنُ حُجْرٍ ح، قَالَ: وَأَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو الْفَضْلِ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، وَاللَّفْظُ لَهُ، ثنا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، ثنا عَمْرُو بْنُ زُرَارَةَ بْنِ وَاقِدٍ الْكِلَابِيُّ قَالَا: ثنا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، ثنا أَيُّوبُ، عَنْ أَبِي قِلَابَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي الْمُهَلَّبِ، عَنْ عِمْرَانَ بْنِ الْحُصَيْنِ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: كَانَتْ ثَقِيفُ حُلَفَاءَ لِبَنِي عُقَيْلٍ فَأَسَرَتْ ثَقِيفُ رَجُلَيْنِ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، وَأَسَرَ أَصْحَابُ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ رَجُلًا، وَأَصَابُوا مَعَهُ الْعَضْبَاءَ فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ كَمَا مَضَى وَفِيهِ قَالَ: وَأُسِرَتِ امْرَأَةٌ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ وَأُصِيبَتِ الْعَضْبَاءُ فَكَانَتِ الْمَرْأَةُ فِي الْوَثَاقِ، وَكَانَ الْقَوْمُ يُرِيحُونَ نَعَمَهُمْ بَيْنَ أَيْدِي بُيُوتِهِمْ، فَانْفَلَتَتْ ذَاتَ لَيْلَةٍ مِنَ الْوَثَاقِ، فَأَتَتِ الْإِبِلَ، فَجَعَلَتْ إِذَا دَنَتْ مِنَ الْبَعِيرِ رَغَا فَتَتْرُكُهُ حَتَّى تَنْتَهِيَ إِلَى الْعَضْبَاءِ فَلَمْ تَرْغُ قَالَ: وَنَاقَةٌ مَنُوقَةٌ فَقَعَدَتْ فِي عَجُزِهَا، ثُمَّ زَجَرَتْهَا فَانْطَلَقَتْ وَنَذَرُوا بِهَا فَطَلَبُوهَا فَأَعْجَزَتْهُمْ قَالَ: وَنَذَرَتْ إِنِ اللهُ أَنْجَاهَا لَتَنْحَرَنَّهَا فَلَمَّا قَدِمَتِ الْمَدِينَةَ رَآهَا النَّاسُ فَقَالُوا: " الْعَضْبَاءُ نَاقَةُ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالَ: إِنَّهَا قَدْ نَذَرَتْ إِنِ اللهُ أَنْجَاهَا عَلَيْهَا لَتَنْحَرَنَّهَا فَأَتَوَا النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَذَكَرُوا ذَلِكَ لَهُ، فَقَالَ: " سُبْحَانَ اللهِ بِئْسَ مَا جَزَتْهَا إِنِ اللهُ أَنْجَاهَا عَلَيْهَا لَتَنْحَرَنَّهَا لَا وَفَاءَ لِنَذْرٍ فِي مَعْصِيَةِ اللهِ، وَلَا فِيمَا لَا يَمْلِكُ الْعَبْدُ ". رَوَاهُ مُسْلِمٌ فِي الصَّحِيحِ، عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ حُجْرٍ وَغَيْرِهِ.
Abu al-Muhallab narrates from Sayyiduna Imran bin Husayn (may Allah be pleased with him) that the tribe of Thaqif were allies of the tribe of Banu Uqayl. Thaqif took two Companions of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) captive, and the Companions of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) took a man captive and also seized his she-camel. He then mentioned the hadith. An Ansari woman was taken captive, and al-Adba' the she-camel was seized. The woman was in bonds, and the people would rest their animals in front of their houses. One night the woman slipped out of her bonds and crept up to the camels. Whenever she approached a camel, it would cry out, so she would leave it, until she reached al-Adba', the she-camel of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and it did not cry out. The narrator said: It was a well-trained she-camel. The woman sat on its rump, then urged it on, and it set off. They became aware of her and pursued her, but she outran them. She had vowed that if Allah saved her, she would slaughter it. When she came to Madinah, the people saw it and said: Al-Adba' is the she-camel of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). Someone said: She has vowed that if Allah saved her on it, she would slaughter it. They came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and mentioned this to him. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Glory be to Allah! If Allah saved her on this she-camel, she would slaughter it? That is bad." Then he said: "There is no fulfilling of a vow in disobedience to Allah, nor in what the servant does not own (there is no vow in that either)."
