حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ خَالِدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَوْهَبٍ الْهَمْدَانِيُّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا الْمُفَضَّلُ يَعْنِي ابْنَ فَضَالَةَ الْمِصْرِيَّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ عَيَّاشِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ الْقِتْبَانِيِّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَنَّ شِيَيْمَ بْنَ بَيْتَانَ أَخْبَرَهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ شَيْبَانَ الْقِتْبَانِيِّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ إِنَّ مَسْلَمَةَ بْنَ مُخَلَّدٍ اسْتَعْمَلَ رُوَيْفِعَ بْنَ ثَابِتٍ عَلَى أَسْفَلِ الْأَرْضِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ شَيْبَانُ:‏‏‏‏ فَسِرْنَا مَعَهُ مِنْ كَوْمِ شَرِيكٍ إِلَى عَلْقَمَاءَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَوْ مِنْ عَلْقَمَاءَ إِلَى كُومِ شَرِيكٍ يُرِيدُ عَلْقَامَ. فَقَالَ رُوَيْفِعٌ:‏‏‏‏ إِنْ كَانَ أَحَدُنَا فِي زَمَنِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏لَيَأْخُذُ نِضْوَ أَخِيهِ عَلَى أَنَّ لَهُ النِّصْفَ مِمَّا يَغْنَمُ وَلَنَا النِّصْفُ. وَإِنْ كَانَ أَحَدُنَا لَيَطِيرُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏لَهُ النَّصْلُ وَالرِّيشُ وَلِلْآخَرِ الْقِدْحُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏ثُمَّ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ قَالَ لِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ:‏‏‏‏ يَا رُوَيْفِعُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏لَعَلَّ الْحَيَاةَ سَتَطُولُ بِكَ بَعْدِي، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَأَخْبِرِ النَّاسَ أَنَّهُ مَنْ عَقَدَ لِحْيَتَهُ أَوْ تَقَلَّدَ وَتَرًا أَوِ اسْتَنْجَى بِرَجِعِ دَابَّةٍ أَوْ عَظْمٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَإِنَّ مُحَمَّدًا صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِنْهُ بَرِيءٌ .

Maslamah Ibn Mukhallad made Ruwayfi ibn Thabit رضی اللہ عنہ the governor of the lower parts (of Egypt). He added: We travelled with him from Kum Sharik to Alqamah or from Alqamah to Kum Sharik (the narrator doubts) for Alqam. Ruwayfi said: Any one of us would borrow a camel during the lifetime of the Prophet صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم from the other, on condition that he would give him half the booty, and the other half he would retain himself. Further, one of us received an arrowhead and a feather, and the other an arrow-shaft as a share from the booty. He then reported: The Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم said: You may live for a long time after I am gone, Ruwayfi, so, tell people that if anyone ties his beard or wears round his neck a string to ward off the evil eye, or cleanses himself with animal dung or bone, Muhammad has nothing to do with him.
