Messenger of Allah ﷺs said to me, "Will you relieve me from Dhul-Khalasa? Dhul-Khalasa was a house (of an idol) belonging to the tribe of Khath'am called Al-Kaʿba Al-Yama-niya. So, I proceeded with one hundred and fifty cavalry men from the tribe of Ahmas, who were excellent knights. It happened that I could not sit firm on horses, so the Prophet ﷺ , stroke me over my chest till I saw his finger-marks over my chest, he said, 'O Allah! Make him firm and make him a guiding and rightly guided man.' " Jarir proceeded towards that house, and dismantled and burnt it. Then he sent a messenger to Allah's Apostle informing him of that. Jarir's messenger said, "By Him Who has sent you with the Truth, I did not come to you till I had left it like an emancipated or gabby camel (i.e. completely marred and spoilt)." Jarir added, "The Prophet ﷺ asked for Allah's Blessings for the horses and the men of Ahmas five times."  

لِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَلاَ تُرِيحُنِي مِنْ ذِي الْخَلَصَةِ وَكَانَ بَيْتًا فِي خَثْعَمَ يُسَمَّى كَعْبَةَ الْيَمَانِيَةَ قَالَ فَانْطَلَقْتُ فِي خَمْسِينَ وَمِائَةِ فَارِسٍ مِنْ أَحْمَسَ وَكَانُوا أَصْحَابَ خَيْلٍ قَالَ وَكُنْتُ لاَ أَثْبُتُ عَلَى الْخَيْلِ فَضَرَبَ فِي صَدْرِي حَتَّى رَأَيْتُ أَثَرَ أَصَابِعِهِ فِي صَدْرِي وَقَالَ اللَّهُمَّ ثَبِّتْهُ وَاجْعَلْهُ هَادِيًا مَهْدِيًّا فَانْطَلَقَ إِلَيْهَا فَكَسَرَهَا وَحَرَّقَهَا ثُمَّ بَعَثَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ يُخْبِرُهُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ جَرِيرٍ وَالَّذِي بَعَثَكَ بِالْحَقِّ مَا جِئْتُكَ حَتَّى تَرَكْتُهَا كَأَنَّهَا جَمَلٌ أَجْوَفُ أَوْ أَجْرَبُ قَالَ فَبَارَكَ فِي خَيْلِ أَحْمَسَ وَرِجَالِهَا خَمْسَ مَرَّاتٍ  

Jarir bin ʿAbdullah said to me, "Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to me, 'Won't you relieve me from Dhul- Khalasa?' Dhul-Khalasa was a house where the tribe of Khatham used to stay, and it used to be called Kaʿbat-ul Yamaniya. So I proceeded with one hundred-and-fifty (men) from the tribe of Ahmas who were good cavalry. I informed the Prophet ﷺ that I could not sit firm on horses, so he stroke me on the chest with his hand and I noticed his finger marks on my chest. He invoked, 'O Allah! Make him firm and a guiding and rightly-guided man." Jarir set out towards that place, dismantled and burnt it, and then sent the good news to Messenger of Allah ﷺ . The messenger of Jarir said to Messenger of Allah ﷺ. "O Allah's Apostle! By Him Who has sent you with the Truth, I did not come to you till it (i.e. the house) had been turned (black) like a scabby camel (covered with tar)." So the Prophet ﷺ invokes Allah to Bless the horses of the men of Ahmas five times.  

لِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَلاَ تُرِيحُنِي مِنْ ذِي الْخَلَصَةِ وَكَانَ بَيْتًا فِيهِ خَثْعَمُ يُسَمَّى كَعْبَةَ الْيَمَانِيَةَ فَانْطَلَقْتُ فِي خَمْسِينَ وَمِائَةٍ مِنْ أَحْمَسَ وَكَانُوا أَصْحَابَ خَيْلٍ فَأَخْبَرْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ أَنِّي لاَ أَثْبُتُ عَلَى الْخَيْلِ فَضَرَبَ فِي صَدْرِي حَتَّى رَأَيْتُ أَثَرَ أَصَابِعِهِ فِي صَدْرِي فَقَالَ اللَّهُمَّ ثَبِّتْهُ وَاجْعَلْهُ هَادِيًا مَهْدِيًّا فَانْطَلَقَ إِلَيْهَا فَكَسَرَهَا وَحَرَّقَهَا فَأَرْسَلَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ يُبَشِّرُهُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ جَرِيرٍ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ وَالَّذِي بَعَثَكَ بِالْحَقِّ مَا جِئْتُكَ حَتَّى تَرَكْتُهَا كَأَنَّهَا جَمَلٌ أَجْرَبُ فَبَارَكَ عَلَى خَيْلِ أَحْمَسَ وَرِجَالِهَا خَمْسَ مَرَّاتٍ قَالَ مُسَدَّدٌ بَيْتٌ فِي خَثْعَمَ  

Jarir said to me, The Prophet ﷺ said to me, "Won't you relieve me from Dhu-l-Khalasa?" And that was a house (in Yemem belonging to the tribe of) Khatham called Al-Kaʿba Al Yamaniya. I proceeded with one-hundred and-fifty cavalry from Ahmas (tribe) who were horse riders. I used not to sit firm on horses, so the Prophet ﷺ stroke me over my chest till I saw the mark of his fingers over my chest, and then he said, 'O Allah! Make him (i.e. Jarir) firm and one who guides others and is guided on the right path." So Jarir proceeded to it dismantled and burnt it, and then sent a messenger to Messenger of Allah ﷺ. The messenger of Jarir said (to the Prophet), "By Him Who sent you with the Truth, I did not leave that place till it was like a scabby camel." The Prophet ﷺ blessed the horses of Ahmas and their men five times.  

لِي النَّبِيُّ ﷺ أَلاَ تُرِيحُنِي مِنْ ذِي الْخَلَصَةِ وَكَانَ بَيْتًا فِي خَثْعَمَ يُسَمَّى الْكَعْبَةَ الْيَمَانِيَةَ فَانْطَلَقْتُ فِي خَمْسِينَ وَمِائَةِ فَارِسٍ مِنْ أَحْمَسَ وَكَانُوا أَصْحَابَ خَيْلٍ وَكُنْتُ لاَ أَثْبُتُ عَلَى الْخَيْلِ فَضَرَبَ فِي صَدْرِي حَتَّى رَأَيْتُ أَثَرَ أَصَابِعِهِ فِي صَدْرِي وَقَالَ اللَّهُمَّ ثَبِّتْهُ وَاجْعَلْهُ هَادِيًا مَهْدِيًّا فَانْطَلَقَ إِلَيْهَا فَكَسَرَهَا وَحَرَّقَهَا ثُمَّ بَعَثَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ جَرِيرٍ وَالَّذِي بَعَثَكَ بِالْحَقِّ مَا جِئْتُكَ حَتَّى تَرَكْتُهَا كَأَنَّهَا جَمَلٌ أَجْرَبُ قَالَ فَبَارَكَ فِي خَيْلِ أَحْمَسَ وَرِجَالِهَا خَمْسَ مَرَّاتٍ  

Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to me. "Will you relieve me from Dhi-al-Khalasa? " Dhi-al-Khalasa was an idol which the people used to worship and it was called Al-Kaʿba al Yamaniyya. I said, "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ I am a man who can't sit firm on horses." So he stroked my chest (with his hand) and said, "O Allah! Make him firm and make him a guiding and well-guided man." So I went out with fifty (men) from my tribe of Ahrnas. (The sub-narrator, Sufyan, quoting Jarir, perhaps said, "I went out with a group of men from my nation.") and came to Dhi-al-Khalasa and burnt it, and then came to the Prophet ﷺ and said, "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! I have not come to you till I left it like a camel with a skin disease." The Prophet then invoked good upon Ahmas and their cavalry (fighters).  

لِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَلاَ تُرِيحُنِي مِنْ ذِي الْخَلَصَةِ وَهْوَ نُصُبٌ كَانُوا يَعْبُدُونَهُ يُسَمَّى الْكَعْبَةَ الْيَمَانِيَةَ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنِّي رَجُلٌ لاَ أَثْبُتُ عَلَى الْخَيْلِ فَصَكَّ فِي صَدْرِي فَقَالَ اللَّهُمَّ ثَبِّتْهُ وَاجْعَلْهُ هَادِيًا مَهْدِيًّا قَالَ فَخَرَجْتُ فِي خَمْسِينَ مِنْ أَحْمَسَ مِنْ قَوْمِي وَرُبَّمَا قَالَ سُفْيَانُ فَانْطَلَقْتُ فِي عُصْبَةٍ مِنْ قَوْمِي فَأَتَيْتُهَا فَأَحْرَقْتُهَا ثُمَّ أَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ وَاللَّهِ مَا أَتَيْتُكَ حَتَّى تَرَكْتُهَا مِثْلَ الْجَمَلِ الأَجْرَبِ فَدَعَا لأَحْمَسَ وَخَيْلِهَا  

[Machine] "O Messenger of Allah, would you not give me respite from the Khulasah? There was a house in Khatham called Ka'bat al-Yamaniyyah, and I made a journey to it with seventy and one hundred riders from Ahmas. He said, 'So I went to it and burnt it with fire.' Jarir then sent Bashir to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and he said, 'By the One who has sent you with the truth, I did not come to you until I left it (the house) as if it were a robust camel.' So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ prayed for blessings on the horses of Ahmas and its men five times."  

لِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَلَا تُرِيحُنِي مِنْ ذِي الْخَلَصَةِ وَكَانَ بَيْتًا فِي خَثْعَمَ يُسَمَّى كَعْبَةَ الْيَمَانِيَةِ فَنَفَرْتُ إِلَيْهِ فِي سَبْعِينَ وَمِائَةِ فَارِسٍ مِنْ أَحْمَسَ قَالَ فَأَتَاهَا فَحَرَّقَهَا بِالنَّارِ وَبَعَثَ جَرِيرٌ بَشِيرًا إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ وَالَّذِي بَعَثَكَ بِالْحَقِّ مَا أَتَيْتُكَ حَتَّى تَرَكْتُهَا كَأَنَّهَا جَمَلٌ أَجْرَبُ فَبَرَّكَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَلَى خَيْلِ أَحْمَسَ وَرِجَالِهَا خَمْسَ مَرَّاتٍ

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ said to him, "Will you not relieve me of the Zul-Khalsah house in Khath'am, which was worshipped in the era of ignorance and was called Ka'bah Al-Yamaniyyah?" He said, "So we went to it with fifty and one hundred riders." He said, "So we destroyed it or set it on fire until we left it like a tamed camel." He said, "Then Jarir was sent to the Prophet ﷺ to give him the good news about this." He said, "So when he came to him, he said, 'By the One who has sent you with the truth, O Messenger of Allah, I did not come to you until we left it like a tamed camel'." He said, "So the Prophet ﷺ blessed Ahmas and its horses and men five times." He said, "I said, 'O Messenger of Allah, I am a man who is not skilled in riding horses,' so he placed his hand on my face until I felt its coolness, and he said, 'O Allah, make him a guide and a guided one'."  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ لَهُ أَلَا تُرِيحُنِي مِنْ ذِي الْخَلَصَةِ بَيْتٍ لِخَثْعَمَ كَانَ يُعْبَدُ فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ يُسَمَّى كَعْبَةَ الْيَمَانِيَةِ قَالَ فَخَرَجْنَا إِلَيْهِ فِي خَمْسِينَ وَمِائَةِ رَاكِبٍ قَالَ فَخَرَّبْنَاهُ أَوْ حَرَّقْنَاهُ حَتَّى تَرَكْنَاهُ كَالْجَمَلِ الْأَجْرَبِ قَالَ ثُمَّ بَعَثَ جَرِيرٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ يُبَشِّرُهُ بِذَلِكَ قَالَ فَلَمَّا جَاءَهُ قَالَ وَالَّذِي بَعَثَكَ بِالْحَقِّ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ مَا جِئْتُكَ حَتَّى تَرَكْنَاهُ كَالْجَمَلِ الْأَجْرَبِ قَالَ فَبَرَّكَ عَلَى أَحْمَسَ وَعَلَى خَيْلِهَا وَرِجَالِهَا خَمْسَ مَرَّاتٍ قَالَ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنِّي رَجُلٌ لَا أَثْبُتُ عَلَى الْخَيْلِ فَوَضَعَ يَدَهُ عَلَى وَجْهِي حَتَّى وَجَدْتُ بَرْدَهَا وَقَالَ اللهُمَّ اجْعَلْهُ هَادِيًا مَهْدِيًّا

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «أَلَا تُرِيحُنِي مِنْ ذِي الْخُلَّصَةِ» وَكَانَ بَيْتًا فِي خَثْعَمٍ يُسَمَّى كَعْبَةَ الْيَمَانِيَةِ فَانْطَلَقْتُ فِي سِتِّينَ وَمِئةِ فَارِسٍ مِنْ أَحْمَسَ وَكَانُوا أَصْحَابَ خَيْلٍ وَكُنْتُ لَا أَثْبُتُ عَلَى الْخَيْلِ فَضَرَبَ صَدْرِي حَتَّى رَأَيْتُ أَثَرَ أَصَابِعِهِ فِي صَدْرِي وَقَالَ «اللهُمَّ ثَبِّتْهُ وَاجْعَلْهُ هَادِيًا مَهْدِيًّا» فَانْطَلَقَ إِلَيْهَا فَكَسَرَهَا وَحَرَّقَهَا وَبَعَثَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ يُخْبِرُهُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ جَرِيرٍ وَالَّذِي بَعَثَكَ بِالْحَقِّ مَا جِئْتُكَ حَتَّى تَرَكْتُهَا كَأَنَّهَا جُمَلٌ أَجْرَبُ فَبَارَكَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَلَى خَيْلِ أَحْمَسَ وَرِجَالِهَا خَمْسَ مَرَّاتٍ  

Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to me: Can't on rid me of Dhu'I-Khalasah, the idol-house of Khath'am, and this idol-house was called the Yamanite Ka'ba. So I went along with 150 horsemen and I could not sit with steadfastness upon the horse. I made the mention of it to Messenger of Allah ﷺ and he struck his hand on my chest and said: O Allah, grant him steadfastness and make him the guide of righteousness and the rightly-guided one. So he went away and he set fire to it. Then Jarir sent some person to Messenger of Allah ﷺ whose Kunya was Abu Arta to give him the happy news about that. He came to Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said: I have not come to you (but with the news) that we have left Dhu'l-Khalasah as a scabed camel. Thereupon Messenger of Allah ﷺ blessed the horses of Ahmas and the men of their tribe five times. (Using translation from Muslim 2476b)   

لِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «يَا جَرِيرُ أَلَا تُرِيحُنِي مِنْ ذِي الْخُلَّصَةِ؟» بَيْتٍ لِخَثْعَمَ يُدْعَى كَعْبَةَ الْيَمَانِيَةِ فَنَفَرْتُ فِي خَمْسِينَ وَمِئةِ فَارِسٍ مِنْ أَحْمَسَ وَكُنْتُ لَا أَثْبُتُ عَلَى الْخَيْلِ فَذَكَرْتُ ذَلِكَ لَهُ فَضَرَبَ فِي صَدْرِي حَتَّى رَأَيْتُ أَثَرَ أَصَابِعِهِ فِي صَدْرِي ثُمَّ قَالَ «اللهُمَّ ثَبِّتْهُ وَاجْعَلْهُ هَادِيًا مَهْدِيًّا» فَانْطَلَقْتُ فَظَهَرَتُ عَلَيْهِمْ وَحَرَّقْتُها بِالنَّارِ فَبَعَثَ جَرِيرٌ رَجُلًا يُكْنَى أَبَا أَرْطَأَةَ بَشِيرًا إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ وَالَّذِي بَعَثَكَ بِالْحَقِّ مَا جِئْتُكَ حَتَّى رَأَيْتُهَا كَأَنَّهَا جُمَلٌ أَجْرَبُ فَبَرَّكَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَلَى خَيْلِ أَحْمَسَ وَرِجَالِ أَحْمَسَ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to me, "Won't you give me some relief from Thul-Khulasa?" I replied, "Yes," and then I set off with fifty and one hundred horsemen from Ahmas who were skilled horsemen. I had difficulty staying on the horse, so I mentioned this to the Prophet ﷺ . He struck his hand on my chest and said, "O Allah, make him firm and guide him rightly." He further said, "Since then, I have never fallen off a horse."  

قَالَ لِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «أَلَا تُرِيحُنِي مِنْ ذِي الْخَلَصَةِ؟» قُلْتُ بَلَى فَانْطَلَقْتُ فِي خَمْسِينَ وَمِائَةِ فَارِسٍ مِنْ أَحْمَسَ وَكَانُوا أَصْحَابَ خَيْلٍ فَكُنْتُ لَا أَثْبُتُ عَلَى الْخَيْلِ فَذَكَرْتُ ذَلِكَ لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَضَرَبَ يَدَهُ عَلَى صَدْرِي فَقَالَ «اللهُمَّ ثَبِّتْهُ وَاجْعَلْهُ هَادِيًا مَهْدِيًّا» قَالَ «فَمَا قُلِعْتُ عَنْ فَرَسٍ قَطُّ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , said to Ja'arir, "Won't you relieve me from this headache?" Ja'arir replied, "So I hated that and I was a man who could not keep up on horseback, so he struck me with his hand on my chest until I saw the mark of his fingers." Then he said, "O Allah, make him steadfast and guide him." So I burned it with fire. Ja'arir sent a man from us to the Prophet, ﷺ , called Abu Arta'ah. He came to the Prophet, ﷺ , and said, "O Messenger of Allah, I swear by the One who sent you with the truth, I did not come to you until I left it as if it were a stubborn camel." So he blessed the horses of Ahmas and its men five times.  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَا جَرِيرُ «أَلَا تُرِيحُنِي مِنْ ذِي الْخَلَصَةِ» قَالَ «فَنَفَرْتُ وَكُنْتُ رَجُلًا لَا أَثْبُتُ عَلَى الْخَيْلِ فَضَرَبَ بِيَدِهِ فِي صَدْرِي حَتَّى رَأَيْتُ أَثَرَ أَصَابِعِهِ» فَقَالَ «اللهُمَّ ثَبِّتْهُ وَاجْعَلْهُ هَادِيًا مَهْدِيًّا فَأَحْرَقْتُهَا بِالنَّارِ» فَبَعَثَ جَرِيرٌ رَجُلًا مِنَّا إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ يُقَالُ لَهُ أَبُو أَرْطَاةَ فَأَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ «وَالَّذِي بَعَثَكَ بِالْحَقِّ مَا جِئْتُكَ حَتَّى تَرَكْتُهَا كَأَنَّهَا جَمَلٌ أَجْرَبُ فَبَرَّكَ عَلَى خَيْلِ أَحْمَسَ وَرِجَالِهَا خَمْسَ مَرَّاتٍ»  

Messenger of Allah ﷺs said to me, "Will you relieve me from Dhul-Khalasa? Dhul-Khalasa was a house (of an idol) belonging to the tribe of Khath'am called Al-Kaʿba Al-Yama-niya. So, I proceeded with one hundred and fifty cavalry men from the tribe of Ahmas, who were excellent knights. It happened that I could not sit firm on horses, so the Prophet ﷺ , stroke me over my chest till I saw his finger-marks over my chest, he said, 'O Allah!

Jarir's messenger said, "By Him Who has sent you with the Truth, I did not come to you till I had left it like an emancipated or gabby camel (i.e. completely marred and spoilt)." Jarir added, "The Prophet ﷺ asked for Allah's Blessings for the horses and the men of Ahmas five times." (Using translation from Bukhārī 3020)
