حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سَهْلٍ التَّمِيمِيُّ، وَعَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ بِهْرَامَ وَأَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ - قَالَ ابْنُ سَهْلٍ: حَدَّثَنَا، وقَالَ الْآخَرَانِ: أَخْبَرَنَا - أَبُو الْيَمَانِ، أَخْبَرَنَا شُعَيْبٌ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، أَخْبَرَنِي سَالِمُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ، أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ عُمَرَ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، يَقُولُ: «انْطَلَقَ ثَلَاثَةُ رَهْطٍ مِمَّنْ كَانَ قَبْلَكُمْ، حَتَّى آوَاهُمُ الْمَبِيتُ إِلَى غَارٍ» وَاقْتَصَّ الْحَدِيثَ بِمَعْنَى حَدِيثِ نَافِعٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ غَيْرَ أَنَّهُ قَالَ: قَالَ رَجُلٌ مِنْهُمْ: «اللهُمَّ كَانَ لِي أَبَوَانِ شَيْخَانِ كَبِيرَانِ، فَكُنْتُ لَا أَغْبِقُ قَبْلَهُمَا أَهْلًا وَلَا مَالًا» وَقَالَ: «فَامْتَنَعَتْ مِنِّي حَتَّى أَلَمَّتْ بِهَا سَنَةٌ مِنَ السِّنِينَ، فَجَاءَتْنِي فَأَعْطَيْتُهَا عِشْرِينَ وَمِائَةَ دِينَارٍ» وَقَالَ: «فَثَمَّرْتُ أَجْرَهُ حَتَّى كَثُرَتْ مِنْهُ الْأَمْوَالُ، فَارْتَعَجَتْ» وَقَالَ: «فَخَرَجُوا مِنَ الْغَارِ يَمْشُونَ».

I heard Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) as saying: Three persons belonging to the earlier Ummahs set out on a journey until they had to spend a night in a cave. The rest of the hadith is the same and the additional words are: A person amongst them said: O Allah, I had my aged parents and I served them milk before I (served that) to my wife, children and my servants. And in case of the second one, the words are: She avoided me until she was hard pressed because of famine and she came to me and I gave her one hundred and twenty dinars. And in case of the third one (the words are): I invested his wages, and it brought profit and, as a result thereof, the merchandise increased and there was an abundance of goods. And he (the narrator said) that they got out of the cave and began to walk.
