English translation

2723. It was reported from Az-Zuhri that 'Anbasah bin Sa'eed informed him, that he heard Abū Hurairah narrating to Sa'eed bin Al-'Āṣ, that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ sent Abān bin Sa'eed bin Al-'Āṣ[1] in an expedition from Al-Madīnah towards Najd. Abān bin Sa'eed and his companions came to the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ at Khaibar after it was conquered. The girths of their horses were made of palm-leaf fibers. Abān said: 'Give us a share (from the spoils) O Messenger of Allāh!'" Abū Hurairah said: "Do not give them a share O Messenger of Allāh! Abān said: 'This is what you say, O you Wābir!'[2] You have come to us from the peak of Dāl!'[3] The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: 'Sit down O Abān!' The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ did not give them any share." (Saḥīḥ)

2723 - حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ عَيَّاشٍ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْوَلِيدِ الزُّبَيْدِيِّ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، أَنَّ عَنْبَسَةَ بْنَ سَعِيدٍ أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّهُ، سَمِعَ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ، يُحَدِّثُ سَعِيدَ بْنَ الْعَاصِ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بَعَثَ أَبَانَ بْنَ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْعَاصِ عَلَى سَرِيَّةٍ مِنَ الْمَدِينَةِ قِبَلَ نَجْدٍ، فَقَدِمَ أَبَانُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ وَأَصْحَابُهُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِخَيْبَرَ بَعْدَ أَنْ فَتَحَهَا، وَإِنَّ حُزُمَ خَيْلِهِمْ لِيفٌ، فَقَالَ أَبَانُ: اقْسِمْ لَنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، فَقَالَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ: فَقُلْتُ: لَا تَقْسِمْ لَهُمْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، فَقَالَ أَبَانُ: أَنْتَ بِهَا يَا وَبْرُ تَحَدَّرَ عَلَيْنَا مِنْ رَأْسِ ضَالٍ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «اجْلِسْ يَا أَبَانُ»، وَلَمْ يَقْسِمْ لَهُمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ

  1. 1

    [1] This Abān is actually the uncle of the Sa'eed bin Al-'Āṣ whom Abū Hurairah narrated it to.

  2. 2

    [2] A Wābr is a small rare hairy animal whose latin name is hyrax, while it is not classified as such, it resembles a rodent, similar to a guinea pig, or a rabbit.

  3. 3

    [3] Some narrations of this Hadīth have the word Ad-Dāl and some have it Ad-Da'n. They differ over its meaning, it is either the name of a location or a mountain where Abū Hurairah's tribe is from, as some say, or it is an insult relating to the rustling of leaves of a lote-tree.
