حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ سَعْدِ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ حَدَّثَنَا عَمِّي حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي عَنْ ابْنِ إِسْحَقَ عَنْ أَبِي نُعَيْمٍ وَهْبِ بْنِ کَيْسَانَ عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَهُ يُحَدِّثُ قَالَ أَرَدْتُ الْخُرُوجَ إِلَی خَيْبَرَ فَأَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَسَلَّمْتُ عَلَيْهِ وَقُلْتُ لَهُ إِنِّي أَرَدْتُ الْخُرُوجَ إِلَی خَيْبَرَ فَقَالَ إِذَا أَتَيْتَ وَکِيلِي فَخُذْ مِنْهُ خَمْسَةَ عَشَرَ وَسْقًا فَإِنْ ابْتَغَی مِنْکَ آيَةً فَضَعْ يَدَکَ عَلَی تَرْقُوَتِهِ
سنن ابودوٗد · Hadith 3632
Narrated Jabir ibn Abdullah: I intended to go (on expedition) to Khaybar. So I came to the Holy Prophet ﷺ, greeted him and said: I am intending to go to Khaybar. He said: When you come to my agent, you should take from him fifteen wasqs (of dates). If he asks you for a sign, then place your hand on his collar-bone.
