3742. Mūsā and ‘Eisā, the sons of Ṭalḥah, narrated from their father: “The Companions of the Prophet ﷺ said, to an unknowing Bedouin
man: 'Ask him who it is that has fulfilled his vow.' They were not in the habit of asking him questions out of their respect and reverence for him. So the Bedouin asked him, but he turned away from him. Then he asked him again, but he turned away from him. Then again he asked him, but he turned away from him. Then I stood looking from the door of the Masjid, while I was wearing a green garment, and I saw the Prophet ﷺ, he said: 'Where is the one who was asking about the one who fulfilled his vow?' The Bedouin said: 'Here I am O Messenger of Allāh!' The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: 'This is one who has fulfilled his vow.'[1] (Hasan)
[Abū 'Eisā said:] This Hadīth is Hasan Gharīb, we do not know of it except as a narration of Abū Kuraib from Yūnus bin Bukair. And more than one of the major scholars from among the people of Hadīth reported this Hadīth from Abū Kuraib. I heard Muḥammad bin 'Ismā'il report this Hadīth from Abū Kuraib, and he placed it in Kitāb Al-Fawā'id.

Commentary
This narration refers to Verse 23 of Sūrat Al-Ahzāb that states, "Among the believers are men who have been true to their covenant with Allāh; of them some have fulfilled their obligations (i.e., have been martyred) and some of them are still waiting, but they have never changed in the least."
