Sunan Abi Dawud 4600
حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ السَّرْحِ، أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا يُونُسُ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، قَالَ فَأَخْبَرَنِي عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ كَعْبِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ كَعْبٍ، - وَكَانَ قَائِدَ كَعْبٍ مِنْ بَنِيهِ حِينَ عَمِيَ - قَالَ سَمِعْتُ كَعْبَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ، - وَذَكَرَ ابْنُ السَّرْحِ قِصَّةَ تَخَلُّفِهِ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فِي غَزْوَةِ تَبُوكَ - قَالَ وَنَهَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم الْمُسْلِمِينَ عَنْ كَلاَمِنَا أَيُّهَا الثَّلاَثَةُ حَتَّى إِذَا طَالَ عَلَىَّ تَسَوَّرْتُ جِدَارَ حَائِطِ أَبِي قَتَادَةَ وَهُوَ ابْنُ عَمِّي فَسَلَّمْتُ عَلَيْهِ فَوَاللَّهِ مَا رَدَّ عَلَىَّ السَّلاَمَ . ثُمَّ سَاقَ خَبَرَ تَنْزِيلِ تَوْبَتِهِ .
Ibn al-Sarh narrated to us; Ibn Wahb informed us; he said: Yunus informed us, from Ibn Shihab, who said: Abd al-Rahman ibn Abdullah ibn Ka'b ibn Malik informed me that Abdullah ibn Ka'b—who used to lead his father Ka'b among his sons after he became blind—said: I heard Ka'b ibn Malik. Ibn al-Sarh mentioned the account of Ka'b's staying behind the Prophet (ﷺ) on the Tabuk expedition. He said: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) forbade the Muslims to speak to the three of us. When this lasted a long time for me, I climbed over the wall into the garden of Abu Qatadah, my cousin, and greeted him. By Allah, he did not return my greeting. Then he related the account of the revelation concerning his repentance.
