Hadith 33:887
Abu Sa‘id narrated to us, Abu ‘Aqil—meaning Bashir ibn ‘Uqbah al-Dawraqi—narrated to us, Abu al-Mutawakkil al-Naji narrated to us, from Jabir ibn ‘Abd Allah, who said: I traveled with the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, on one of his journeys—and I think he said: while raiding. When we turned back, returning, he said: "Whoever wishes to hasten, let him hasten." I was on a grey camel, and there was not the like of it in the army. I urged it forward, and the people were behind me. While I was in that state, my camel stood still and would not move. Then, the voice of the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, came, and he said: "What is the matter with your camel, O Jabir?" I said: "O Messenger of Allah, I do not know what has afflicted it." He said: "Hold on, and give me the whip." I gave him the whip, and he struck it once. The camel then went in every direction. The Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, then said to me: "At that, O Jabir, will you sell me your camel?" I said: "Yes, O Messenger of Allah." He said: "Proceed to Medina." When I arrived in Medina, he entered the mosque with groups of his companions. I hobbled my camel and said: "This is your camel, O Messenger of Allah." He came out and began to walk around it, saying: "Indeed, the camel is my camel." He then said: "O so-and-so, go and bring me some awaq (ounces) of gold." He said: "Give them to Jabir." I took them, and the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said: "Have you received the price in full?" I said: "Yes, O Messenger of Allah." He said: "Then the price is yours, and the camel is yours—or the camel is yours, and the price is yours."
حدثنا أبو سعيد، حدثنا أبو عقيل يعني بشير بن عقبة الدورقي، حدثنا أبو المتوكل الناجي، عن جابر بن عبد الله، قال: سافرت مع رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم في بعض أسفاره - وأحسبه قال: غازيا - فلما أقبلنا قافلين قال: " من أحب أن يتعجل فليتعجل "، وأنا على جمل أرمك ليس في الجند مثله، فاندفعت عليه، فإذا الناس خلفي فبينا أنا كذلك إذ قام جملي، فجعل لا يتحرك، فإذا صوت النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم فقال: " ما شأن جملك يا جابر؟ " قلت: يا رسول الله، لا أدري ما عرض له، قال: " استمسك، وأعطني السوط " فأعطيته السوط فضربه ضربة، فذهب بي البعير كل مذهب، فقال لي النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم: " عند ذلك يا جابر أتبيعني جملك " قلت: نعم يا رسول الله. قال: " اقدم المدينة "، فقدم المدينة فدخل في طوائف من أصحابه المسجد، فعقلت بعيري، فقلت: هذا جملك يا رسول الله، فخرج فجعل يطيف به ويقول: " نعم الجمل جملي " فقال: " يا فلان، انطلق فائتني بأواق من ذهب " فقال: " أعطها جابرا " فقبضتها، فقال النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم: " استوفيت الثمن؟ " قلت: نعم، يا رسول الله، قال: " فلك الثمن، ولك الجمل - أو لك الجمل، ولك الثمن - "
