وَحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حَاتِمٍ، حَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجٌ، عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ، أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو الزُّبَيْرِ، سَمِعَ جَابِرًا، يُسْأَلُ كَمْ كَانُوا يَوْمَ الْحُدَيْبِيَةِ قَالَ كُنَّا أَرْبَعَ عَشْرَةَ مِائَةً فَبَايَعْنَاهُ وَعُمَرُ آخِذٌ بِيَدِهِ تَحْتَ الشَّجَرَةِ وَهِيَ سَمُرَةٌ فَبَايَعْنَاهُ غَيْرَ جَدِّ ابْنِ قَيْسٍ الأَنْصَارِيِّ اخْتَبَأَ تَحْتَ بَطْنِ بَعِيرِهِ.

Translation

Muhammad ibn Hatim narrated to us; Hajjaj narrated to us, from Ibn Jurayj. Abu al-Zubayr informed me that he heard Jabir being asked how many they were on the day of al-Hudaybiyyah. He said: We were fourteen hundred. We pledged allegiance to him while Umar held his hand beneath the tree, which was a samurah. We all pledged allegiance except Jadd ibn Qays al-Ansari, who hid beneath the belly of his camel.
