Volume 3, Book 49, Number 856:
Narrated Anas:
It was said to the Prophet “Would that you see Abdullah bin Ubai.” So, the Prophet went to him,
riding a donkey, and the Muslims accompanied him, walking on salty barren land. When the Proph –
et reached ‘Abdullah bin Ubai, the latter said, “Keep away from me! By Allah, the bad smell of your
donkey has harmed me.” On that an Ansari man said (to ‘Abdullah), “By Allah! The smell of the don –
key of Allah’s Apostle is better than your smell.” On that a man from ‘Abdullah’s tribe got angry for
‘Abdullah’s sake, and the two men abused each other which caused the friends of the two men to get
angry, and the two groups started fighting with sticks, shoes and hands. We were informed that the
following Divine Verse was revealed (in this concern):– “And if two groups of Believers fall to fight –
ing then, make peace between them.” (49.9)
