I went out of Al-Madîna towards Al-Ghâba. When I reached the mountain path of Al-Ghâba, a slave of ' Abdur-bin Auf met me. I said to him, "Woe to you ! What brought you here?" He replied, "The she-camels of the Prophet (ﷺ) have been taken away." I said, Who took them?" He said, Ghatafần and Fazâra." So, I sent three cries, O ! O ! so loudly that I made the people in between its (i.e. Al-Madîna's) two mountains hear me. Then I rushed till I met them after they had taken the camels away. I started throwing arrows at them saying, "I am the son of Al-Akwa '; and today perish the mean people ! " So, I saved the she-camels from them before they (i.e. the robbers) could drink. When I returned driving the camels, the Prophet (ﷺ) met me, I said, "O Allâh's Messenger (ﷺ)! Those people are thirsty and I have prevented them from drinking, so send some people to chase them." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "O son of Al-Akwa ', you have gained power (over your enemy), so forgive (them). (Besides) those people are now being entertained by their folk." [4:278-O.B]
