Arabic Text
قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي عَنْ صَالِحٍ قَالَ ابْنُ شِهَابٍ أَخْبَرَنِي عُمَرُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرِ بْنِ مُطْعِمٍ أَنَّ مُحَمَّدَ بْنَ جُبَيْرِ بْنِ مُطْعِمٍ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي جُبَيْرُ بْنُ مُطْعِمٍ أَنَّهُ بَيْنَا هُوَ يَسِيرُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَمَعَهُ النّ
َاسُ مُقْبِلًا مِنْ حُنَيْنٍ عَلِقَتْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الْأَعْرَابُ يَسْأَلُونَهُ حَتَّى اضْطَرُّوهُ إِلَى سَمُرَةٍ فَخَطِفَتْ رِدَاءَهُ فَوَقَفَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ثُمَّ قَالَ أَعْطُونِي رِدَائِي فَلَوْ كَانَ عَدَدُ هَذِهِ الْعِضَاهِ نَعَمًا لَقَسَمْتُهُ ثُمَّ لَا تَجِدُونِي بَخِيلًا وَلَا كَذَّابًا وَلَا جَبَانًا

English Translation
Yaʿqūb narrated to us, he said: My father narrated to us, from Ṣāliḥ, who said: Ibn Shihāb informed me, ʿUmar ibn Muḥammad ibn Jubayr ibn Muṭʿim told me that Muḥammad ibn Jubayr ibn Muṭʿim said: Jubayr ibn Muṭʿim told me that while he was traveling with the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ and the people on the way back from Ḥunayn, the Bedouins clung to the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ, begging him until they pressed him against a thorny tree and it snatched his cloak. The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ stopped and said: 'Give me back my cloak. If the number of these thorny trees were livestock, I would distribute them among you. Then you would not find me miserly, nor a liar, nor a coward.'
