'Adba belonged to a man of Banu 'Aqil. It used to go ahead of pligrims. The man was then captivated. He was brought in chains to the Prophet (ﷺ). The Prophet (ﷺ) was riding on a donkey with a blanket on him. He said: Muhammad, why do you arrest me and capture the one (i.e. the she-camel) which goes ahead of the pilgrims. He replied: We are arresting you on account of the crime committed by your allies Thaqid. Thaqif captivated two persons from among the Companions of the Prophet (ﷺ). He said (whatever he said) I am a Muslim, or he said: I have embraced Islam. When the Prophet (ﷺ) went ahead, he called him: O Muhammed, O Muhammed. Abu Dawud said: I learnt it from the version of the narrator Muhammad b. 'Isa. The Prophet (ﷺ) was compassionate and kind hearted. So he returned to him, and asked: What is the matter with you ? He replied: I am a Muslim. He said: Had you said it when the matter was in your hand, you would have succeeded completely. Abu Dawud said: I then returned to the version of the narrator Sulaiman (b. Harb). He said: Muhammad, I am hungry, so feed me. I am thirsty, so give me water. The Prophet (ﷺ) said: This is your need, or he said: This is his need (the narrator is doubtful). Later on the man was taken back (by Thaqif) as a ransom for the two men (of the Companions of the Prophet). The Prophet (ﷺ) retained 'Adba for his journey. The narrator said: The polytheists raided the pasturing animals of Medina and they took away 'Adba. When they took away 'Adba, they also captivated a Muslim woman. They used to leave their camels in the fields for rest at night. One night they slept and the (Muslim) woman stood up. Any camel on which she put her hand brayed until she came to 'Adba. She came to a she-camel which was docile and experienced. She then rode on her and vowed to Allah that if He saved her, she would sacrifice it. When she came to Medina, the people recognized the she-camel of the Prophet (ﷺ). The Prophet (ﷺ) was then informed about it and he sent for her. She was brought to him and she informed him about her vow. He said: It is a bad return that you have given it. Allah has not saved you, on its (back) that you now sacrifice it. A vow to do an act of disobedience must not be fulfilled, or to do something over which one has no control.

Abu Dawud said: This woman was the wife of Abu Dharr.

(3754) İbn Abbas (r.a)'m şöyle dediği rivayet edilmiştir:

Peygamber (s. a), üstünlüklerini ortaya koyabilmek için yarışan kimselerin
yemeklerinin yenmesini yasaklamıştır.

Ebû Dâvud dedi ki; Bu hadisi, Cerîr (b. Hazm) 'den rivayet edenlerin ekserisi
rivayetlerinin senedinde îbn Abbas (r.a)'m ismini zikretmediler. (Ancak îkrime'nin
rivayet ettiği) bu hadiste olduğu gibi Harun en-Nahvî de (bu hadisi rivayet ederken)

1421

îbn Abbasfm ismini zikretti. Hammâd b. Zeyd ise İbn Abbas'in ismini zikretmedi.
Açıklama

İnsanların, başkalarına olan üstünlüğünü ortaya koyabilmek ve bu şekilde nefsine bir
pay çıkarmak gayesiyle bir takım yarışlara girişmesi riyadan başka bir şey olmadığı
için İslâmiyette bu gayeyle yapılan işler çirkin sayıldığı gibi, bu gibi kimselerin
yemeğini yemek de yasaklanmıştır. Çünkü onların yemekleri, "Mallarınızı aranızda

1481 ' [491
haksız sebeplerle yemeyin!" âyetinin şümulüne girmektedir.
