وَحَدَّثَنِي أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ، أَخْبَرَنَا يُونُسُ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ كَعْبِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ كَعْبَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ يَقُولُ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَلَّمَا يُرِيدُ غَزْوَةً يَغْزُوهَا إِلاَّ وَرَّى بِغَيْرِهَا، حَتَّى كَانَتْ غَزْوَةُ تَبُوكَ، فَغَزَاهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فِي حَرٍّ شَدِيدٍ، وَاسْتَقْبَلَ سَفَرًا بَعِيدًا وَمَفَازًا، وَاسْتَقْبَلَ غَزْوَ عَدُوٍّ كَثِيرٍ، فَجَلَّى لِلْمُسْلِمِينَ أَمْرَهُمْ، لِيَتَأَهَّبُوا أُهْبَةَ عَدُوِّهِمْ، وَأَخْبَرَهُمْ بِوَجْهِهِ الَّذِي يُرِيدُ.

Narrator: Ka`b bin Malik

English translation
Narrated Ka`b bin Malik: Whenever Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) intended to carry out a Ghazwa, he would use an equivocation to conceal his real destination till it was the Ghazwa of Tabuk which Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) carried out in very hot weather. As he was going to face a very long journey through a wasteland and was to meet and attack a large number of enemies. So, he made the situation clear to the Muslims so that they might prepare themselves accordingly and get ready to conquer their enemy. The Prophet (ﷺ) informed them of the destination he was heading for
বাংলা অনুবাদ
কা‘ব ইবনু মালিক (রাঃ) হতে বর্ণিত। তিনি বলেন, অধিকাংশ সময় আল্লাহর রাসূল সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম কোন নির্দিষ্ট জায়গায় যুদ্ধের ইচ্ছা করলে অন্য দিকে দৃষ্টি ফিরিয়ে দিয়ে তা গোপন রাখতেন কিন্তু যখন তাবুক যুদ্ধ এল, যে যুদ্ধে আল্লাহর রাসূল সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম রওয়ানা দিলেন, প্রচন্ড গরম এবং সম্মুখীন হলেন দীর্ঘ সফরের ও মরুময় পথের আর অধিক সংখ্যক সৈন্যের মোকাবিলায় অগ্রসর হলেন। তাই তিনি মুসলিমদের সামনে বিষয়টি প্রকাশ করলেন, যাতে তারা শত্রুর মুকাবিলার প্রয়োজনীয় প্রস্তুতি গ্রহণ করতে পারে এবং ইচ্ছার লক্ষ্য সবাইকে জানিয়ে দিলেন।
