حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي قَيْسٌ، قَالَ قَالَ لِي جَرِيرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ قَالَ لِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏"‏ أَلاَ تُرِيحُنِي مِنْ ذِي الْخَلَصَةِ ‏"‏‏.‏ وَكَانَ بَيْتًا فِيهِ خَثْعَمُ يُسَمَّى كَعْبَةَ الْيَمَانِيَةَ، فَانْطَلَقْتُ فِي خَمْسِينَ وَمِائَةٍ مِنْ أَحْمَسَ، وَكَانُوا أَصْحَابَ خَيْلٍ، فَأَخْبَرْتُ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم أَنِّي لاَ أَثْبُتُ عَلَى الْخَيْلِ، فَضَرَبَ فِي صَدْرِي حَتَّى رَأَيْتُ أَثَرَ أَصَابِعِهِ فِي صَدْرِي فَقَالَ ‏"‏ اللَّهُمَّ ثَبِّتْهُ وَاجْعَلْهُ هَادِيًا مَهْدِيًّا ‏"‏‏.‏ فَانْطَلَقَ إِلَيْهَا فَكَسَرَهَا وَحَرَّقَهَا، فَأَرْسَلَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم يُبَشِّرُهُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ جَرِيرٍ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، وَالَّذِي بَعَثَكَ بِالْحَقِّ، مَا جِئْتُكَ حَتَّى تَرَكْتُهَا كَأَنَّهَا جَمَلٌ أَجْرَبُ، فَبَارَكَ عَلَى خَيْلِ أَحْمَسَ وَرِجَالِهَا خَمْسَ مَرَّاتٍ‏.‏ قَالَ مُسَدَّدٌ بَيْتٌ فِي خَثْعَمَ‏.‏

Narrated Qais:Jarir bin `Abdullah said to me, "Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said to me, 'Won't you relieve me from Dhul- Khalasa?' Dhul-Khalasa was a house where the tribe of Khatham used to stay, and it used to be called Ka`bat-ul Yamaniya. So I proceeded with one hundred-and-fifty (men) from the tribe of Ahmas who were good cavalry. I informed the Prophet (ﷺ) that I could not sit firm on horses, so he stroke me on the chest with his hand and I noticed his finger marks on my chest. He invoked, 'O Allah! Make him firm and a guiding and rightly-guided man." Jarir set out towards that place, dismantled and burnt it, and then sent the good news to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) . The messenger of Jarir said to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ). "O Allah's Apostle! By Him Who has sent you with the Truth, I did not come to you till it (i.e. the house) had been turned (black) like a scabby camel (covered with tar)." So the Prophet (ﷺ) invoked Allah to Bless the horses of the men of Ahmas five times

Qais bataate hain: Jarir bin Abdullah ne mujhse kaha, "Allah ke Rasool ne mujhse kaha, 'Kya tum mujhe Dhul-Khalasa se aaram nahi doge?' Dhul-Khalasa ek ghar tha jahan Khatham qabile ke log rehte the, aur ise Ka'bat-ul Yamaniya kaha jata tha. Isliye main Ahmas qabile ke sau paanch pachaas (logon) ke saath chal pada jo behtareen ghudsawaar the. Maine Nabi ko bataya ke main ghode par mazbooti se nahi baith sakta, isliye unhone mere seene par apne haath se maara aur maine unki ungliyon ke nishaan apne seene par dekhe. Unhone dua ki, 'Aye Allah! Ise mazboot bana aur ise ek raah-numa aur sahi raah paane wala shaks bana.'" Jarir us jagah gaye, use bikher diya aur jala diya, phir Allah ke Rasool ko achhi khabar bheji. Jarir ke khaddam ne Allah ke Rasool se kaha, "Ya Allah ke Rasool! Us Zaat ki qasam jisne aapko haqq ke saath bheja hai, main aapke paas tab tak nahi aaya jab tak woh (yaani ghar) ek zakhmi unt jaisa (kaala, taar se dhaka hua) na ho gaya." Isliye Nabi ne Ahmas qabile ke logon ke ghodon ke liye paanch baar Allah se barkat maangi.
