2406. (On another occasion) I took part in one of Ghazawāt along with the Prophet ﷺ and I was riding one of our camels. The camel got tired and was lagging behind the others. The Prophet ﷺ hit it on its back. He said, "Sell it to me, and you have the right to ride it till Al-Madīna." When we approached Al-Madīna, I took the permission from the Prophet ﷺ to go to my house, saying, "O Allāh's Messenger! I am married recently." The Prophet ﷺ asked, "Have you married a virgin or a matron (a widow or divorcee)?" I said, "I have married a matron, as 'Abdullāh (my father) died and left behind daughters small in their ages, so I married a matron who may teach them and bring them up with good manners." The Prophet ﷺ then said (to me), "Go to your family." When I went there and told my maternal uncle about the selling of the camel, he admonished me for it. On that I told him about its slowness and exhaustion and about what the Prophet ﷺ had done to the camel and his hitting it. When the Prophet ﷺ arrived, I went to him with the camel in the morning and he gave me the price of the camel and the camel itself, and also my share from the war booty as he gave the other people.

2406 - وَغَزَوْتُ مَعَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَلَى نَاضِحٍ لَنَا، فَأَزْحَفَ الجَمَلُ، فَتَخَلَّفَ عَلَيَّ، فَوَكَزَهُ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِنْ خَلْفِهِ، قَالَ: «بِعْنِيهِ وَلَكَ ظَهْرُهُ إِلَى المَدِينَةِ»، فَلَمَّا دَنَوْنَا اسْتَأْذَنْتُ، قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، إِنِّي حَدِيثُ عَهْدٍ بِعُرْسٍ، قَالَ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " فَمَا تَزَوَّجْتَ: بِكْرًا أَمْ ثَيِّبًا "، قُلْتُ: ثَيِّبًا، أُصِيبَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ، وَتَرَكَ جَوَارِيَ صِغَارًا، فَتَزَوَّجْتُ ثَيِّبًا تُعَلِّمُهُنَّ وَتُؤَدِّبُهُنَّ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: «ائْتِ أَهْلَكَ»، فَقَدِمْتُ، فَأَخْبَرْتُ خَالِي بِبَيْعِ الجَمَلِ، فَلاَمَنِي، فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ بِإِعْيَاءِ الجَمَلِ، وَبِالَّذِي كَانَ مِنَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَوَكْزِهِ إِيَّاهُ، فَلَمَّا قَدِمَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ غَدَوْتُ إِلَيْهِ بِالْجَمَلِ، فَأَعْطَانِي ثَمَنَ الجَمَلِ وَالجَمَلَ، وَسَهْمِي مَعَ القَوْمِ
