حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْمَعِيلَ بْنِ سَمُرَةَ أَنْبَأَنَا وَکِيعٌ عَنْ سُفْيَانَ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَقَ عَنْ أَبِي الْخَلِيلِ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ قَالَ کَانَ الْمُغِيرَةُ بْنُ شُعْبَةَ إِذَا غَزَا مَعَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حَمَلَ مَعَهُ رُمْحًا فَإِذَا رَجَعَ طَرَحَ رُمْحَهُ حَتَّی يُحْمَلَ لَهُ فَقَالَ لَهُ عَلِيٌّ لَأَذْکُرَنَّ ذَلِکَ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ لَا تَفْعَلْ فَإِنَّکَ إِنْ فَعَلْتَ لَمْ تُرْفَعْ ضَالَّةً
ابن ماجہ · Hadith 2809
It was narrated that 'Ali bin Abi Talib said: "When Mughirah bin Shubah fought alongside the Prophet he would carry a spear, and when he would come back he would throw his spear down so that someone would pick it up and give it back to him." 'Ali said to him: "I will tell the Messenger of Allah about that." He (the Prophet P.B.U.H ) said: "Do not do that, for if you do that it will not be picked up as a lost item to be returned. (Da'if)
