Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ دَاوُدَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ أَبِي الزِّنَادِ عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ عُقْبَةَ عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ عَنِ جَابِرٍ قَالَ كَانَ الْعَبَّاسُ آخِذًا بِيَدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَرَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُوَاثِقُنَا فَلَمَّا فَرَغْنَا قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَخَذْتُ وَأَعْطَيْتُ قَالَ فَسَأَلْتُ جَابِرًا يَوْمَئِذٍ كَيْفَ بَايَعْتُمْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَعَلَى الْمَوْتِ قَالَ لَا وَلَكِنْ بَايَعْنَاهُ عَلَى أَنْ لَا نَفِرَّ قُلْتُ لَهُ أَفَرَأَيْتَ يَوْمَ الشَّجَرَةِ قَالَ كُنْتُ آخِذًا بِيَدِ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ حَتَّى بَايَعْنَاهُ قُلْتُ كَمْ كُنْتُمْ قَالَ كُنَّا أَرْبَعَ عَشَرَ مِائَةً فَبَايَعْنَاهُ كُلُّنَا إِلَّا الْجَدَّ بْنَ قَيْسٍ اخْتَبَأَ تَحْتَ بَطْنِ بَعِيرٍ وَنَحَرْنَا يَوْمَئِذٍ سَبْعِينَ مِنْ الْبُدْنِ لِكُلِّ سَبْعَةٍ جَزُورٌ.
English Translation
Sulayman ibn Dawud told us, Abd al-Rahman ibn Abi al-Zinad told us, from Musa ibn Uqbah, from Abu al-Zubayr, from Jabir, who said: al-Abbas was holding the hand of the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, while the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, was taking our pledges. When we had finished, the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "I have taken and I have given." He said: I asked Jabir that day: "How did you pledge allegiance to the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him? Upon death?" He said: "No, but we pledged allegiance to him upon not fleeing." I said to him: "What about the day of the Tree?" He said: "I was holding the hand of Umar ibn al-Khattab when we pledged allegiance to him." I said: "How many were you?" He said: "We were one thousand four hundred, and we all pledged allegiance to him except al-Jadd ibn Qays, who hid under the belly of a camel. And we slaughtered that day seventy camels, one camel for every seven men."
