We set out for Jihad in the cause of Allah and one of you lagged behind and shrieked like the bleating of a male goat and one of then (goats' gave a small quantity of milk. In case Allah gives me power over one of them, I will punish him (in such a way that it may have a deterrent effect upon others). In another narration transmitted on the authority of Sa'id b Jubair (the words are), that He (the Holy Prophet) turned him away four times."

سَمِعْتُ جَابِرَ بْنَ سَمُرَةَ يَقُولُ أُتِيَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ بِرَجُلٍ قَصِيرٍ أَشْعَثَ ذِي عَضَلاَتٍ عَلَيْهِ إِزَارٌ وَقَدْ زَنَى فَرَدَّهُ مَرَّتَيْنِ ثُمَّ أَمَرَ بِهِ فَرُجِمَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ كُلَّمَا نَفَرْنَا غَازِينَ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ تَخَلَّفَ أَحَدُكُمْ يَنِبُّ نَبِيبَ التَّيْسِ يَمْنَحُ إِحْدَاهُنَّ الْكُثْبَةَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ لاَ يُمْكِنِّي مِنْ أَحَدٍ مِنْهُمْ إِلاَّ جَعَلْتُهُ نَكَالاً أَوْ نَكَّلْتُهُ قَالَ فَحَدَّثْتُهُ سَعِيدَ بْنَ جُبَيْرٍ فَقَالَ إِنَّهُ رَدَّهُ أَرْبَعَ مَرَّاتٍ

[Machine] He heard Jabir ibn Samurah saying: The Prophet ﷺ was brought a short man wearing an Izar (lower garment) without a cloak. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was reclining on a pillow on his left side. He spoke to him, and I do not know what he said to him, while I was far away from him and there were people between me and him. He said: Take him away. Then he said: Bring him back. He spoke to him, and I could hear him. He said: Take him away and stone him. Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ stood up to deliver a sermon, and I could hear him. He said: Whenever we go out in the cause of Allah, one of us has a nanny goat like the nanny goat of a goat, which gives her abundant milk. By Allah, I cannot keep any of them except that I am affectionate towards her.

أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ جَابِرَ بْنَ سَمُرَةَ يَقُولُ أُتِيَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ بمَاعِزِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ رَجُلٍ قَصِيرٍ فِي إِزَارِهِ مَا عَلَيْهِ رِدَاءٌ قَالَ وَرَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مُتَّكِئٌ عَلَى وِسَادَةٍ عَلَى يَسَارِهِ فَكَلَّمَهُ وَمَا أَدْرِي مَا يُكَلِّمُهُ وَأَنَا بَعِيدٌ مِنْهُ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَهُ قَوْمٌ فَقَالَ اذْهَبُوا بِهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ رُدُّوهُ فَكَلَّمَهُ وَأَنَا أَسْمَعُ فَقَالَ اذْهَبُوا بِهِ فَارْجُمُوهُ ثُمَّ قَامَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ خَطِيبًا وَأَنَا أَسْمَعُهُ قَالَ فَقَالَ أَكُلَّمَا نَفَرْنَا فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ خَلَفَ أَحَدُهُمْ لَهُ نَبِيبٌ كَنَبِيبِ التَّيْسِ يَمْنَحُ إِحْدَاهُنَّ الْكُثْبَةَ مِنَ اللَّبَنِ وَاللهِ لَا أَقْدِرُ عَلَى أَحَدِهِمْ إِلَّا نَكَّلْتُ بِهِ

[Machine] He heard Jabir bin Samurah saying, "The Prophet ﷺ was presented with a short man wearing an izār (a lower garment) without a rida (a upper garment). The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was reclining on a cushion on his left side. He spoke to him, but I do not know what he said to him as I was far away from them and the people were between me and him. He said, "Take him away and stone him." Then he said, "Bring him back." He spoke to him again and I listened, although the people were still between me and him. Then he said, "Take him away and stone him." Then the Prophet ﷺ stood up and delivered a sermon, and I listened to it. Then he said, "Whenever we go out in the cause of Allah, one of them would be given a she-camel to ride and the rest would share its milk. By Allah, I cannot convey the like of one of them without facing hardship."

أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ جَابِرَ بْنَ سَمُرَةَ يَقُولُ أُتِيَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ بِمَاعِزِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ رَجُلٍ قَصِيرٍ فِي إِزَارٍ مَا عَلَيْهِ رِدَاءٌ وَرَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ مُتَّكِئٌ عَلَى وِسَادَةٍ عَلَى يَسَارِهِ فَكَلَّمَهُ فَمَا أَدْرِي مَا يُكَلِّمُهُ بِهِ وَأَنَا بَعِيدٌ مِنْهُ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَهُ الْقَوْمُ فَقَالَ «اذْهَبُوا بِهِ فَارْجُمُوهُ» ثُمَّ قَالَ «رُدُّوهُ» فَكَلَّمَهُ أَيْضًا وَأَنَا أَسْمَعُ غَيْرَ أَنَّ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَهُ الْقَوْمَ ثُمَّ قَالَ «اذْهَبُوا بِهِ فَارْجُمُوهُ» ثُمَّ قَامَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَخَطَبَ وَأَنَا أَسْمَعُهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ «كُلَّمَا نَفَرْنَا فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ خَلَفَ أَحَدُهُمْ لَهُ نَبِيبٌ كَنَبِيبِ التَّيْسِ يَمْنَحُ إِحْدَاهُنَّ الْكُثْبَةَ مِنَ اللَّبَنِ؟ وَاللَّهِ لَا أَقْدِرُ عَلَى أَحَدٍ مِنْهُمْ إِلَّا نَكَّلْتُ بِهِ»

By Allah, I will not go ahead of anyone of them, but I will punish him."

سَمِعْتُ جَابِرَ بْنَ سَمُرَةَ يَقُولُ أُتِيَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بِمَاعِزِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ رَجُلٍ قَصِيرٍ فِي إِزَارٍ مَا عَلَيْهِ رِدَاءٌ فَكَلَّمَهُ وَمَا أَدْرِي مَا يُكَلِّمُهُ وَأَنَا بَعِيدٌ مِنْهُ وَبَيْنِي وَبَيْنَهُ الْقَوْمُ فَقَالَ «اذْهَبُوا بِهِ» ثُمَّ قَالَ «رُدُّوهُ» فَكَلَّمَهُ وَأَنَا أَسْمَعُ غَيْرَ أَنَّ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَهُ الْقَوْمَ ثُمَّ قَالَ «اذْهَبُوا بِهِ فَارْجُمُوهُ» ثُمَّ قَامَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَخَطَبَ وَأَنَا أَسْمَعُهُ فَقَالَ «كُلَّمَا نَفَرْنَا فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ خَلَّفَ أَحَدُهُمْ لَهُ نَبِيبٌ كَنَبِيبِ التَّيْسِ يَمْنَحُ إِحْدَاهُنَّ الْكُثْبَةَ مِنَ اللَّبَنِ وَاللهِ لَا أَقْدَمُ عَلَى أَحَدٍ مِنْهُمْ إِلَّا نَكَّلْتُ بِهِ»

[Machine] A man brought a short, lame goat to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ while he was reclining on a cushion. When it was brought to him, he shrugged his cushion and spoke to it, causing the face of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ to turn red. He realized that he had angered him and gestured with his hand to stone the man. Then he sent a man after him and spoke to him briefly, then said, "Take him and stone him." The people became angry and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ascended the pulpit and praised Allah and praised him, then said, "Afterwards, whenever we go out in the way of Allah, one of them leaves behind a female goat, as a lure for one of us, like the lure of a goat, and he is granted something. I swear, if Allah enables me to seize one of them, I will certainly cut off his hand."

جِيءَ بِمَاعِزٍ رَجُلٍ قَصِيرٍ مُتَّزِرٍ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مُتَّكِئًا عَلَى وِسَادَةٍ فَلَمَّا أُتِيَ بِهِ اجْتَنَحَ الْوِسَادَةَ فَكَلَّمَهُ فَاحْمَرَّ وَجْهُ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَعَرَفَ أَنَّهُ قَدْ أَغْضَبَهُ فَأَوْمَأَ بِيَدِهِ أَنِ ارْجُمُوهُ ثُمَّ أَرْسَلَ رَجُلًا فِي أَثَرِهِ وَكَلَّمَهُ قَلِيلًا ثُمَّ قَالَ «اذْهَبُوا بِهِ فَارْجُمُوهُ» فَثَارَ الْقَوْمُ فَصَعِدَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ الْمِنْبَرَ فَحَمِدَ اللهَ وَأَثْنَى عَلَيْهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ «أَمَا بَعْدُ كُلَّمَا نَفَرْنَا فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ تَخَلَّفَ أَحَدُهُمْ لَهُ نَبِيبٌ كَنَبِيبِ التَّيْسِ يَمْنَحُ إِحْدَاهُنَّ شَيْئًا أَمَا لَئِنْ أَمْكَنَنِي اللهُ مِنْ أَحَدِهِمْ لَأُنَكِّلَنَّ بِهِ»
