Arabic Text
حَدَّثَنَا الْهَيْثَمُ بْنُ خَارِجَةَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا بَشِيرُ بْنُ طَلْحَةَ أَبُو نَصْرٍ الْحَضْرَمِيُّ أَوْ الْخُشَنِيُّ عَنْ خَالِدِ بْنِ دُرَيْكٍ عَنْ يَعْلَى بْنِ أُمَيَّةَ قَالَ كَانَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَبْعَثُنِي فِي سَرَايَا فَبَعَثَنِي ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ فِي سَرِيَّةٍ وَكَانَ رَجُلٌ يَرْكَبُ بَغْلًا فَقُلْتُ لَهُ ارْحَلْ فَإِنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَدْ بَعَثَنِي فِي سَرِيَّةٍ فَقَالَ مَا أَنَا
بِخَارِجٍ مَعَكَ قُلْتُ وَلِمَ قَالَ حَتَّى تَجْعَلَ لِي ثَلَاثَةَ دَنَانِيرَ قُلْتُ الْآنَ حَيْثُ وَدَّعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَا أَنَا بِرَاجِعٍ إِلَيْهِ ارْحَلْ وَلَكَ ثَلَاثَةُ دَنَانِيرَ فَلَمَّا رَجَعْتُ مِنْ غَزَاتِي ذَكَرْتُ ذَلِكَ لِلنَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ لَيْسَ لَهُ مِنْ غَزَاتِهِ هَذِهِ وَمِنْ دُنْيَاهُ وَمِنْ آخِرَتِهِ إِلَّا ثَلَاثَةُ الدَّنَانِيرِ

English Translation
Yaʿlā ibn Umayyah رضي الله عنه narrated: the Prophet ﷺ used to send me on military expeditions. He sent me one day on an expedition, and there was a man riding a mule. I said to him: "Come, for the Prophet ﷺ has sent me on an expedition." He said: "I will not go out with you." I said: "Why not?" He said: "Not until you give me three dīnārs." I said: "Now that I have already bid farewell to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, I am not going back to him. Come, and you shall have three dīnārs." When I returned from my expedition, I mentioned that to the Prophet ﷺ, and he said: "He has nothing from this expedition of his — neither in this world nor in the Hereafter — except the three dīnārs."
