Musnad Abu Ya'la al-Mawsili 109:292

Ibn Numayr narrated to us, Abu Bakr ibn Ayyash narrated to us, from al-A'mash, from Abu Sufyan, from Jabir, who said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "Indeed, in Medina there are men; you did not travel any distance, nor did you cross any valley, but they were with you." They said: "They were detained by an excuse."
