حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَی بْنُ إِسْمَعِيلَ حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ يَعْنِي ابْنَ سَعْدٍ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ شِهَابٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ کَعْبِ بْنِ مَالِکٍ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ أَنَّ جَيْشًا مِنْ الْأَنْصَارِ کَانُوا بِأَرْضِ فَارِسَ مَعَ أَمِيرِهِمْ وَکَانَ عُمَرُ يُعْقِبُ الْجُيُوشَ فِي کُلِّ عَامٍ فَشُغِلَ عَنْهُمْ عُمَرُ فَلَمَّا مَرَّ الْأَجَلُ قَفَلَ أَهْلُ ذَلِکَ الثَّغْرِ فَاشْتَدَّ عَلَيْهِمْ وَتَوَاعَدَهُمْ وَهُمْ أَصْحَابُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالُوا يَا عُمَرُ إِنَّکَ غَفَلْتَ عَنَّا وَتَرَکْتَ فِينَا الَّذِي أَمَرَ بِهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِنْ إِعْقَابِ بَعْضِ الْغَزِيَّةِ بَعْضًا
سنن ابودوٗد · Hadith 2960
Narrated Abdullah bin Kab bin Malik al-Ansari: An expedition of the Ansar was operating in Persia with their leader. Umar used to send expeditions by turns every year, but he neglected them. When the expired, the people of expedition appointed on the frontier came back. He (Umar) took serious action against them and threatened them, though they were the Companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. They said: Umar you neglected us, and abandoned the practice for which the Messenger of Allah ﷺ commanded to send the detachments by turns.
