378. Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr, from Muawiya Bin Ammar, who has said
Abu Abdullah (asws) said: ‘When the Rasool Allah (saww) came out of the cave, he (saww) turned his direction towards Al-Medina, and the Qureysh had placed a reward of one hundred camels for anyone who could capture him (saww). So Suraqat Bin Malik Bin Jo’sham went out in search. He met up with the Rasool Allah (saww). So the Rasool Allah (saww) said: ‘Our Allah (azwj)! Suffice me (saww) from the evil of Suraqat by whatever You (azwj) so Desire to’. So the legs of his horse bent and got stuck in the soil. He said, ‘O Muhammad (saww)! I know that you (saww) are the one who made the legs of my horse to be stuck, so call upon Allah (azwj) that He (azwj) should Release my horse. If you (saww) do not face goodness from me, you (saww) will not face evil from me either’. So the Rasool Allah (saww) supplicated and Allah (azwj) Mighty and Majestic Released his horse. So he went back in pursuit of Rasool Allah (saww), until he did that three times during each of which the Rasool Allah (saww) supplicated and the earth grabbed the legs of his horse. So when it was Released for the third time, he said, ‘O Muhammad (saww)! This is my camel in front of you along with my slave. So if you (saww) need to ride upon it or its milk, so take from it. And this is an arrow from my quiver as a sign, and I am returning and will not be pursuing you (saww)’. So he (saww) said: ‘There is no need for us with regards to what is in your possession’.
عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ عَمَّارٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (عليه السلام) أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ (صلى الله عليه وآله) لَمَّا خَرَجَ مِنَ الْغَارِ مُتَوَجِّهاً إِلَى الْمَدِينَةِ وَ قَدْ
كَانَتْ قُرَيْشٌ جَعَلَتْ لِمَنْ أَخَذَهُ مِائَةً مِنَ الْإِبِلِ فَخَرَجَ سُرَاقَةُ بْنُ مَالِكِ بْنِ جُعْشُمٍ فِيمَنْ يَطْلُبُ فَلَحِقَ بِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ (صلى الله عليه وآله) فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ (صلى الله عليه وآله) اللَّهُمَّ اكْفِنِي شَرَّ سُرَاقَةَ بِمَا شِئْتَ فَسَاخَتْ قَوَائِمُ فَرَسِهِ فَثَنَى رِجْلَهُ ثُمَّ اشْتَدَّ فَقَالَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ إِنِّي عَلِمْتُ أَنَّ الَّذِي أَصَابَ قَوَائِمَ فَرَسِي إِنَّمَا هُوَ مِنْ قِبَلِكَ فَادْعُ اللَّهَ أَنْ يُطْلِقَ لِي فَرَسِي فَلَعَمْرِي إِنْ لَمْ يُصِبْكُمْ مِنِّي خَيْرٌ لَمْ يُصِبْكُمْ مِنِّي شَرٌّ فَدَعَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ (صلى الله عليه وآله) فَأَطْلَقَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ فَرَسَهُ فَعَادَ فِي طَلَبِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ (صلى الله عليه وآله) حَتَّى فَعَلَ ذَلِكَ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ كُلَّ ذَلِكَ يَدْعُو رَسُولُ اللَّهِ (صلى الله عليه وآله) فَتَأْخُذُ الْأَرْضُ قَوَائِمَ فَرَسِهِ فَلَمَّا أَطْلَقَهُ فِي الثَّالِثَةِ قَالَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ هَذِهِ إِبِلِي بَيْنَ يَدَيْكَ فِيهَا غُلَامِي فَإِنِ احْتَجْتَ إِلَى ظَهْرٍ أَوْ لَبَنٍ فَخُذْ مِنْهُ وَ هَذَا سَهْمٌ مِنْ كِنَانَتِي عَلَامَةً وَ أَنَا أَرْجِعُ فَأَرُدُّ عَنْكَ الطَّلَبَ فَقَالَ لَا حَاجَةَ لَنَا فِيمَا عِنْدَكَ.
