📖 1 min readعن جبير بن مطعم رضي الله عنه قال: بينما هو يسير مع النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم مَقْفَلَه من حُنَيْن، فَعَلِقَهُ الأعراب يسألونه، حتى اضطروه إلى سَمُرَة، فَخَطِفَت رداءه، فوقف النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم فقال: «أعطوني ردائي، فلو كان لي عدد هذه العِضَاهِ نَعَمًا، لقسمته بينكم، ثم لا تجدوني بخيلًا ولا كذابًا ولا جبانًا».
When the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) was returning from the battle of Hunayn - a valley between Makkah and Taif - and Jubair ibn Mut‘im was with him, some Bedouins grabbed him and began to demand their shares. They forced him to the Samrah tree (a thorny tree), and his cloak became entangled in the tree's thorns, and they were pulling at him. The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Give my cloak back to me. Were I to have camels or cows or sheep equal to the number of these thorny trees, I would distribute them all among you. If you were to try me, you would not find me a miser, a liar, or a coward."
