3079. It was narrated that Abū Ḥumaid As-Sā'idī said: “I went on the campaign to Tabūk with the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ. When he came to Wādī Al-Qurā, he saw a woman in a garden of hers. The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said to his Companions: ‘Estimate (the yield).’ The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ estimated it at ten Wasqs, and he said to the woman: ‘Count the yield.’ We arrived in Tabūk, and the king of Aylah gave the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ a white mule, and the Prophet ﷺ gave him a Burdah, and he wrote a document to him, meaning, approving him as ruler of his land on the coast. When we returned to Wādī Al-Qurā, he said to the woman: ‘How much was there in your garden?’ She said: ‘Ten Wasq, as the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ had estimated.’ The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: ‘I am going to hasten on to Al-Madinah. Whoever wants to hasten on with me, let him do so.’” (Ṣaḥīḥ)

3079 - حَدَّثَنَا سَهْلُ بْنُ بَكَّارٍ، حَدَّثَنَا وُهَيْبُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ يَحْيَى، عَنِ الْعَبَّاسِ السَّاعِدِيِّ يَعْنِي ابْنَ سَهْلِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي حُمَيْدٍ السَّاعِدِيِّ، قَالَ: غَزَوْتُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ تَبُوكَ فَلَمَّا أَتَى وَادِي الْقُرَى إِذَا امْرَأَةٌ فِي حَدِيقَةٍ لَهَا، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِأَصْحَابِهِ: «اخْرُصُوا» فَخَرَصَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَشْرَةَ أَوْسُقٍ، فَقَالَ لِلْمَرْأَةِ: «أَحْصِي مَا يَخْرُجُ مِنْهَا» فَأَتَيْنَا تَبُوكَ فَأَهْدَى مَلِكُ أَيْلَةَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بَغْلَةً بَيْضَاءَ، وَكَسَاهُ بُرْدَةً وَكَتَبَ لَهُ - يَعْنِي - بِبَحْرِهِ، قَالَ: فَلَمَّا أَتَيْنَا وَادِي الْقُرَى، قَالَ لِلْمَرْأَةِ: «كَمْ كَانَ فِي حَدِيقَتِكِ؟» قَالَتْ: عَشْرَةَ أَوْسُقٍ خَرْصَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «إِنِّي مُتَعَجِّلٌ إِلَى الْمَدِينَةِ، فَمَنْ أَرَادَ مِنْكُمْ أَنْ يَتَعَجَّلَ مَعِي فَلْيَتَعَجَّلْ»
