وحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي عَدِيٍّ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَوْنٍ، عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي لَيْلَى، عَنْ كَعْبِ بْنِ عُجْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ، قَالَ: فِيَّ أُنْزِلَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ: {فَمَنْ كَانَ مِنْكُمْ مَرِيضًا أَوْ بِهِ أَذًى مِنْ رَأْسِهِ فَفِدْيَةٌ مِنْ صِيَامٍ أَوْ صَدَقَةٍ أَوْ نُسُكٍ} [البقرة: 196] قَالَ: فَأَتَيْتُهُ، فَقَالَ: «ادْنُهْ» فَدَنَوْتُ، فَقَالَ: ادْنُهْ فَدَنَوْتُ، فَقَالَ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «أَيُؤْذِيكَ هَوَامُّكَ؟» - قَالَ ابْنُ عَوْنٍ: وَأَظُنُّهُ -، قَالَ: نَعَمْ، قَالَ: «فَأَمَرَنِي بِفِدْيَةٍ مِنْ صِيَامٍ أَوْ صَدَقَةٍ أَوْ نُسُكٍ، مَا تَيَسَّرَ».

It was I for whom this verse was revealed (to the Holy Prophet): Whoever among you is sick or has an ail- ment of the head, he (may effect) a compensation by lasting or alms or a sacrifice He said: I came to him (the Holy Prophet) and he said: Come Dear. So I went near. He (again) said: Come near. So I went near. Thereupon the Messenger of Allah ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) said: Do the vermins trouble you? Ibn Aun (one of the narrators) said: I think he (Ka'b bin Ujra) replied in the affirmative. He (the Holy Prophet) then commanded to do compensation by fasting or by giving sadaqa (feeding six needy persons) or by sacrifice (of a animal) that is available.
