أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الرُّذْبَارِيُّ، أنبأ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَكْرٍ، ثنا أَبُو دَاوُدَ، ثنا مُسَدَّدٌ، ثنا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ، عَنْ هِلَالِ بْنِ خَبَّابٍ، عَنْ مَيْسَرَةَ أَبِي صَالِحٍ، عَنْ سُوَيْدِ بْنِ غَفَلَةَ، قَالَ: سِرْتُ أَوْ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي مَنْ سَارَ مَعَ مُصَدِّقِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَإِذَا فِي عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ " أَنْ لَا تَأْخُذْ مِنْ رَاضِعِ لَبَنٍ وَلَا يُجْمَعُ بَيْنَ مُتَفَرِّقٍ وَلَا يُفَرَّقُ بَيْنَ مُجْتَمِعٍ، وَكَانَ إِنَّمَا يَأْتِي الْمِيَاهَ حِينَ تُرَدُّ الْغَنَمُ فَيَقُولُ: أَدُّوا صَدَقَاتِ أَمْوَالِكُمْ ". قَالَ فَعَمَدَ رَجُلٌ مِنْهُمْ إِلَى نَاقَةٍ كَوْمَاءَ قَالَ: قُلْتُ: يَا أَبَا صَالِحٍ مَا الْكَوْمَاءُ؟ قَالَ: عَظِيمَةُ السَّنَامِ، قَالَ: فَأَبَى أَنْ يَقْبَلَهَا قَالَ: فَقَالَ: إِنِّي أُحِبُّ أَنْ تَأْخُذَ خَيْرَ إِبِلِي، قَالَ: فَأَبَى أَنْ يَقْبَلَهَا قَالَ: فَخَطَمَ لَهُ أُخْرَى دُونَهَا فَأَبَى أَنْ يَقْبَلَهَا، ثُمَّ خَطَمَ لَهُ أُخْرَى دُونَهَا فَقَبِلَهَا وَقَالَ: إِنِّي آخُذُهَا وَأَخَافُ أَنْ يَجِدَ عَلَيَّ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، يَقُولُ عَمَدْتَ إِلَى رَجُلٍ فَتَخَيَّرْتَ عَلَيْهِ إِبِلَهُ.
Suwayd bin Ghafalah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I was informed by someone who went with the collector in the time of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), to whom he (peace and blessings be upon him) had said: "He is not to take a milk-giving animal, nor combine those grazing separately, and those grazing together are not to be separated." So he would come to them at the watering place and, when the sheep came there, say to them: Pay the zakah of your wealth. He said: A man went for his kawma' she-camel. He said: I said: O Abu Salih, what is a kawma'? He said: One with a huge hump. He said: He refused to take it, and the man said: I want you to take from my best camels, but the collector refused to accept it. Then he offered another, and he refused that too; then he offered a third, and he accepted it and said: I am taking it, but I fear that the beloved Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) will hold me to account and say: "You went to a man and picked out the best of his camels against him."
