His meal was presented before him and there was chicken meat in it. Among \nthose who were present there was a man from Bani Taimillah having a red complexion as a non-Arab \nfreed slave, and that man did not approach the meal. Abu Musa said to him, \"Come along! I have seen \nAllah's Apostle eating of that (i.e., chicken).\" The man said, \"I have seen it (chickens) eating \nsomething I regarded as dirty, and so I have taken an oath that I shall not eat (its meat) chicken.\" Abu \nMusa said, \"Come along! I will inform you about it (i.e., your oath). \nOnce we went to Allah's Apostle in company with a group of Ash'airiyin, asking him for mounts \nwhile he was distributing some camels from the camels of Zakat. (Aiyub said, \"I think he said that the \nProphet was in an angry mood at the time.\") The Prophet said, 'By Allah! I will not give you mounts, \nand I have nothing to mount you on.' After we had left, some camels of booty were brought to Allah's \nApostle and he said, \"Where are those Ash`ariyin? Where are those Ash`ariyin?\" So we went (to him) \nand he gave us five very fat good-looking camels. We mounted them and went away, and then I said \nto my companions, 'We went to Allah's Apostle to give us mounts, but he took an oath that he would \nnot give us mounts, and then later on he sent for us and gave us mounts, perhaps Allah's Apostle \nforgot his oath. By Allah, we will never be successful, for we have taken advantage of the fact that \nAllah's Apostle forgot to fulfill his oath. So let us return to Allah's Apostle to remind him of his oath.' \nWe returned and said, 'O Allah's Apostle! We came to you and asked you for mounts, but you took an \noath that you would not give us mounts) but later on you gave us mounts, and we thought or \nconsidered that you have forgotten your oath.' The Prophet said, 'Depart, for Allah has given you \nMounts. By Allah, Allah willing, if I take an oath and then later find another thing better than that, I \ndo what is better, and make expiation for the oath.' \"\n<p>\n(<i>two other narrations through Zahdam as above</i>)","english_grade":"Sahih","last_updated":null,"xrefs":""}
