“I went on an expedition with the Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم against Hawazin and while we were having a meal in the forenoon and most of our people were on foot and some of us were weak, a man came on a red Camel. He took out a rope from the lion of the Camel and tied his Camel with it and began to take meal with the people. When he saw the weak condition of their people and lack of mounts he went out in a hurry to his Camel, untied it made it kneel down and sat on it and went off galloping it. A man of the tribe of Aslam followed him on a brown she Camel which was best of those of the people. I hastened out and I found him while the head of the she Camel was near the paddock of the she Camel. I then went ahead till I reached near the paddock of the Camel. I then went ahead till I caught the Camel’s nose string. I made it kneel. When it placed its knee on the ground, I drew my sword and struck the man on his head and it fell down. I then brought the Camel leading it with (its equipment) on it. The Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم came forward facing me and asked “Who killed the man? They (the people) said “Salamah bin Akwa. He said “he gets all his spoil. ” Harun said “This is Hashim’s version.
