حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدَةُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ وَهْبِ بْنِ كَيْسَانَ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، قَالَ بَعَثَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ وَنَحْنُ ثَلاَثُمِائَةٍ نَحْمِلُ أَزْوَادَنَا عَلَى رِقَابِنَا فَفَنِيَ أَزْوَادُنَا حَتَّى كَانَ يَكُونُ لِلرَّجُلِ مِنَّا تَمْرَةٌ . فَقِيلَ يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ وَأَيْنَ تَقَعُ التَّمْرَةُ مِنَ الرَّجُلِ فَقَالَ لَقَدْ وَجَدْنَا فَقْدَهَا حِينَ فَقَدْنَاهَا وَأَتَيْنَا الْبَحْرَ فَإِذَا نَحْنُ بِحُوتٍ قَدْ قَذَفَهُ الْبَحْرُ فَأَكَلْنَا مِنْهُ ثَمَانِيَةَ عَشَرَ يَوْمًا .

Narrator: Jabir bin ‘Abdullah

English translation
It was narrated that Jabir bin ‘Abdullah said: “The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) sent us, (we were) three hundred men, carrying our provisions on our necks. Our provisions ran out until there would be for (every) man among us one date (a day).” Then it was said: “O Abu ‘Abdullah, how can one date satisfy a man?” He said: “When we no longer had it, we realized how much it was worth. Then we came to the sea and found a whale that had been thrown up by the sea, and we ate from it for eighteen days.”
বাংলা অনুবাদ
। জাবির ইবনে আবদুল্লাহ (রাঃ) থেকে বর্ণিত। তিনি বলেন, রাসূলুল্লাহ সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম আমাদের তিন শত লোককে (এক সামরিক অভিযানে) পাঠান। আমরা আমাদের রসদপত্র নিজ নিজ কাঁধে বহন করেছিলাম। আমাদের খাদ্য প্রায় ফুরিয়ে এলো। আমাদের মাথাপিছু একটি করে খেজুর থাকলো। জিজ্ঞেস করা হলো, হে আবূ আবদুল্লাহ! একটি মাত্র খেজুরে একজন লোকের কী হতো? তিনি বলেন, যখন মাথাপিছু একটি করে খেজুরও শেষ হয়ে গেলো, তখন আমরা এর কদর বুঝেত পারলাম। আমরা সমুদ্রতীরে উপনীত হয়ে তথায় একটি বিরাটকায় মাছ দেখতে পেলাম, যেটিকে সমুদ্র তরঙ্গ তীরে নিক্ষেপ করেছিল। আমরা আঠারো দিন ধরে সেই মাছটি আহার করলাম।
