حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَبِي عَدِيٍّ عَنْ دَاوُدَ عَنْ عَامِرٍ قَالَ بَعَثَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ جَيْشَ ذَاتِ السُّلَاسِلِ فَاسْتَعْمَلَ أَبَا عُبَيْدَةَ عَلَى الْمُهَاجِرِينَ وَاسْتَعْمَلَ عَمْرَو بْنَ الْعَاصِ عَلَى الْأَعْرَابِ فَقَالَ لَهُمَا تَطَاوَعَا قَالَ وَكَانُوا يُؤْمَرُونَ أَنْ يُغِيرُوا عَلَى بَكْرٍ فَانْطَلَقَ عَمْرٌو فَأَغَارَ عَلَى قُضَاعَةَ لِأَنَّ بَكْرًا أَخْوَالُهُ فَانْطَلَقَ الْمُغِيرَةُ بْنُ شُعْبَةَ إِلَى أَبِي عُبَيْدَةَ فَقَالَ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ اسْتَعْمَلَكَ عَلَيْنَا وَإِنَّ ابْنَ فُلَانٍ قَدْ ارْتَبَعَ أَمْرَ الْقَوْمِ وَلَيْسَ لَكَ مَعَهُ أَمْرٌ فَقَالَ أَبُو عُبَيْدَةَ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَمَرَنَا أَنْ نَتَطَاوَعَ فَأَنَا أُطِيعُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَإِنْ عَصَاهُ عَمْرٌو
مسند امام احمد بن حنبل · Hadith 1698
It was narrated that 'Amir said: The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) sent the army of Dhatus-Salasil; he appointed Abu 'Ubaidah in charge of the Muhajireen and ' Amr bin al- 'As in charge of the Bedouin, and he said to them both: Cooperate with one another." And they were instructed to raid [the tribe of] Bakr. So 'Amr set out and raided [the tribe of] Quda'ah, because Bakr were his maternal uncles. Al-Mugheerah bin Shu'bah went to Abu 'Ubaidah and said: The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) has appointed you over us, but the son of so and so [i.e., 'Amr] is leading the people and you should have nothing to do with him [because he did the wrong thing], Abu 'Ubaidah said: The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) commanded us to cooperate with one another, and I shall obey the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) even if 'Amr disobeys him.
