Hadith #290
Arabic Text
حَدَّثَنَا حَسَنُ بْنُ مُوسَى حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو إِسْحَاقَ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ زَيْدَ بْنَ أَرْقَمَ يَقُولُ خَرَجْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي سَفَرٍ فَأَصَابَ النَّاسَ شِدَّةٌ فَقَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ أُبَيٍّ لِأَصْحَابِهِ لَا تُنْفِقُوا عَلَى مَنْ عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ حَتَّى يَنْفَضُّوا مِنْ حَوْلِهِ وَقَالَ لَئِنْ رَجَعْنَا إِلَى الْمَدِينَةِ لَيُخْرِجَنَّ الْأَعَزُّ مِنْهَا الْأَذَلَّ فَأَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ بِذَلِكَ فَأَرْسَلَ إِلَى عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أُبَيٍّ فَسَأَلَهُ
فَاجْتَهَدَ يَمِينَهُ مَا فَعَلَ فَقَالُوا كَذَّبَ زَيْدًا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ فَوَقَعَ فِي نَفْسِي مِمَّا قَالُوا حَتَّى أَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ تَصْدِيقِي فِي { إِذَا جَاءَكَ الْمُنَافِقُونَ } قَالَ وَدَعَاهُمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِيَسْتَغْفِرَ لَهُمْ فَلَوَّوْا رُءُوسَهُمْ وَقَوْلُهُ تَعَالَى { كَأَنَّهُمْ خُشُبٌ مُسَنَّدَةٌ } قَالَ كَانُوا رِجَالًا أَجْمَلَ شَيْءٍ

أبو إسحاق
English Translation
Zayd ibn Arqam (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that we went out with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ on a journey and people suffered hardship. ʿAbd Allāh ibn Ubayy said to his companions: 'Do not spend on those who are with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ until they disperse from around him,' and he said: 'If we return to Madīnah, the more honorable will surely expel the more humiliated.' I went to the Prophet ﷺ and informed him of that. He sent word to ʿAbd Allāh ibn Ubayy, and he swore by every oath that he had not done it. They said: 'Zayd lied to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ,' and what they said distressed me greatly. Then Allah عز وجل sent down confirmation of what I said, and the Prophet ﷺ summoned them to seek forgiveness for them, but they turned their heads aside.
