حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي مُلَيْكَةَ، عَنِ الْمِسْوَرِ بْنِ مَخْرَمَةَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَسَمَ أَقْبِيَةً وَلَمْ يُعْطِ مَخْرَمَةَ شَيْئًا فَقَالَ مَخْرَمَةُ يَا بُنَىَّ انْطَلِقْ بِنَا إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَانْطَلَقْتُ مَعَهُ قَالَ ادْخُلْ فَادْعُهُ لِي فَدَعَوْتُهُ لَهُ فَخَرَجَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَعَلَيْهِ قِبَاءٌ مِنْهَا فَقَالَ ‏"‏ خَبَأْتُ لَكَ هَذَا ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ فَنَظَرَ إِلَيْهِ فَقَالَ ‏"‏ رَضِيَ مَخْرَمَةُ ‏" ‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ ‏.‏ وَابْنُ أَبِي مُلَيْكَةَ اسْمُهُ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي مُلَيْكَةَ ‏.‏

Unreviewed translation. All hadiths in this collection are available in five languages. Titles and introductions may remain in Arabic.

Al-Miswar ibn Makhramah reported: Allah’s Messenger distributed some cloaks but did not give Makhramah anything. Makhramah said, ‘My son, let us go to Allah’s Messenger.’ I went with him, and he said, ‘Go in and call him for me.’ I called him, and the Prophet came out wearing one of the cloaks. He said, ‘I had kept this one for you.’ Makhramah looked at it and said, ‘May Makhramah be pleased.’

Abu ‘Isa said: This is a hasan sahih hadith. Ibn Abi Mulaykah’s name was ‘Abd Allah ibn ‘Ubayd Allah ibn Abi Mulaykah.

  • Qaba is a cloak or coat. The final phrase is voiced in the third person (‘May Makhramah be pleased’), as in the Arabic; it expresses his satisfaction with the garment.
