حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ حَدَّثَنَا مُطَرِّفٌ عَنْ أَبِي الْجَهْمِ عَنْ الْبَرَائِ بْنِ عَازِبٍ قَالَ بَيْنَا أَنَا أَطُوفُ عَلَی إِبِلٍ لِي ضَلَّتْ إِذْ أَقْبَلَ رَکْبٌ أَوْ فَوَارِسُ مَعَهُمْ لِوَائٌ فَجَعَلَ الْأَعْرَابُ يَطِيفُونَ بِي لِمَنْزِلَتِي مِنْ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذْ أَتَوْا قُبَّةً فَاسْتَخْرَجُوا مِنْهَا رَجُلًا فَضَرَبُوا عُنُقَهُ فَسَأَلْتُ عَنْهُ فَذَکَرُوا أَنَّهُ أَعْرَسَ بِامْرَأَةِ أَبِيهِ
سنن ابودوٗد · Hadith 4456
Narrated Al-Bara ibn Azib: while I was wandering in search of my camels which had strayed, a caravan or some horsemen carrying a standard came forward. The bedouin began to go round me for my position with the Prophet ﷺ. They came to a domed structure, took out a man from it, and struck his neck. I asked about him. They told me that he had married his father's wife.
