3076. Narrated Qais: Jarīr bin 'Abdullāh رضي الله عنه said to me, "Allāh's Messenger ﷺ said to me, 'Won't you relieve me from Dhul-Khalaṣa?' Dhul-Khalaṣa was a house belonging to the tribe of Khath'am and there used to be worshipped the Taghiyas (idols) (of the Daus Khath'am, and Bajaila tribes) and it used to be called Ka'ba-al-Yamāniya. So, I proceeded with one hundred and fifty (men) from the tribe of Aḥmas who were excellent knights. I informed the Prophet ﷺ that I could not sit firm on horses, so he stroke me on the chest with his hand and I noticed his finger-marks on my chest. He invoked, 'O Allāh! Make him firm and a guide and a rightly-guided man.' Jarīr set out towards that place, dismantled and burnt it, and then sent the good news to Allāh's Messenger ﷺ. The messenger of Jarīr said to Allāh's Messenger ﷺ, 'O Allāh's Messenger! By Him Who has sent you with the Truth, I did not come to you till it (i.e., the house) had been turned (black) like a scabby camel (covered with tar).' So, the Prophet ﷺ invoked Allāh to bless the horses of the men of Aḥmas five times. [See Hadīth No.3020]

3076 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ المُثَنَّى، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي قَيْسٌ، قَالَ: قَالَ لِي جَرِيرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ: قَالَ لِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «أَلاَ تُرِيحُنِي مِنْ ذِي الخَلَصَةِ»، وَكَانَ بَيْتًا فِيهِ خَثْعَمُ، يُسَمَّى كَعْبَةَ اليَمَانِيَةِ، فَانْطَلَقْتُ فِي خَمْسِينَ وَمِائَةٍ مِنْ أَحْمَسَ، وَكَانُوا أَصْحَابَ خَيْلٍ، فَأَخْبَرْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنِّي لاَ أَثْبُتُ عَلَى الخَيْلِ، فَضَرَبَ فِي صَدْرِي حَتَّى رَأَيْتُ أَثَرَ أَصَابِعِهِ فِي صَدْرِي، فَقَالَ: «اللَّهُمَّ ثَبِّتْهُ، وَاجْعَلْهُ هَادِيًا مَهْدِيًّا»، فَانْطَلَقَ إِلَيْهَا، فَكَسَرَهَا وَحَرَّقَهَا، فَأَرْسَلَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُبَشِّرُهُ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ جَرِيرٍ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، وَالَّذِي بَعَثَكَ بِالحَقِّ، مَا جِئْتُكَ حَتَّى تَرَكْتُهَا كَأَنَّهَا جَمَلٌ أَجْرَبُ، فَبَارَكَ عَلَى خَيْلِ أَحْمَسَ وَرِجَالِهَا خَمْسَ مَرَّاتٍ، قَالَ مُسَدَّدٌ: بَيْتٌ فِي خَثْعَمَ
