5493. Narrated Jābir: رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ: We went out in a campaign and the army was called 'The Army of Al-Khabat', and Abū 'Ubaidā was our commander. We were struck with severe hunger. Then the sea threw a huge dead fish called Al-Anbar, the like of which had never been seen. We ate of it for half a month, and then Abū 'Ubaidā took one of its bones (and made an arch of it) so that a rider could easily pass under it. (1) (Chap. 12) Al-Murī is a drink made from wine mixed with salt and fish and is exposed to the sun till the wine loses its taste.

Arabic text

5493 - حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي عَمْرٌو، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ جَابِرًا رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ، يَقُولُ: «غَزَوْنَا جَيْشَ الخَبَطِ، وَأُمِّرَ أَبُوعُبَيْدَةَ، فَجُعْنَا جُوعًا شَدِيدًا، فَأَلْقَى البَحْرُ حُوتًا مَيِّتًا لَمْ يُرَ مِثْلُهُ، يُقَالُ لَهُ العَنْبَرُ، فَأَكَلْنَا مِنْهُ نِصْفَ شَهْرٍ، فَأَخَذَ أَبُو عُبَيْدَةَ عَظْمًا مِنْ عِظَامِهِ، فَمَرَّ الرَّاكِبُ تَحْتَهُ»
