رَجُلٌ لَمْ يُسَمَّ، عَنْ رَافِعٍ

We went out with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ on a journey, and we had on our saddles and camels garments consisting of red warp of wool. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Do I not see that red colour has dominated you. We then got up quickly on account of this saying of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and some of our camels ran away. We then took the garments and withdrew them. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 4070)   

الطبراني:٤٤٤٩حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ بْنُ غَنَّامٍ ثنا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ ثنا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ عَنِ الْوَلِيدِ بْنِ كَثِيرٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو عَنْ عَطَاءٍ عَنْ رَجُلٍ مِنْ بَنِي حَارِثَةَ عَنْ رَافِعِ بْنِ خَدِيجٍ قَالَ

خَرَجْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فِي سَفَرٍ فَرَأَى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَلَى رَوَاحِلِنَا أَكْسِيَةً فِيهَا خُيُوطٌ حُمْرٌ عُرْضٌ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «أَلَا أَرَى الْحُمْرَةَ قَدْ غَلَبَتْكُمْ؟» قَالَ فَقُمْنَا سِرَاعًا لِقَوْلِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ حَتَّى نَفَرَ بَعْضُ إِبِلِنَا فَأَخَذْنَا الْأَكْسِيَةَ فَنَزَعْنَاهَا مِنْهَا

[Machine] Rafi' ibn Khadeej narrated to them that they went out with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ on a journey. When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ stopped for lunch, he said that every man should tie the reins of his camel, then we sent them to graze in the tree area. Then we sat with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. He said, "Our provision is on our shoulders." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ raised his head and saw bags with red threads. He said, "Don't you see that these bags have become a burden for you?" So, we quickly followed the words of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ until some of our camels scattered, and then we took the bags and removed the threads from them.

أَنَّ رَافِعَ بْنَ خَدِيجٍ حَدَّثَهُمْ أَنَّهُمْ خَرَجُوا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فِي سَفَرٍ قَالَ فَلَمَّا نَزَلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لِلْغَدَاءِ قَالَ عَلَّقَ كُلُّ رَجُلٍ بِخِطَامِ نَاقَتِهِ ثُمَّ أَرْسَلْنَاهُنَّ فِي الشَّجَرِ قَالَ ثُمَّ جَلَسْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ وَرِحَالُنَا عَلَى أَبَاعِرِنَا قَالَ فَرَفَعَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ رَأْسَهُ فَرَأَى أَكْسِيَةً لَنَا فِيهَا خُيُوطٌ مِنْ عِهْنٍأَحْمَرَ قَالَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَلَا أَرَى هَذِهِ الْحُمْرَةَ قَدْ عَلَتْكُمْ قَالَ فَقُمْنَا سِرَاعًا لِقَوْلِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ حَتَّى نَفَرَ بَعْضُ إِبِلِنَا فَأَخَذْنَا الْأَكْسِيَةَ فَنَزَعْنَاهَا مِنْهَا
