The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to me, "Will you not relieve me of Dhul-Khalasah?" It was a house belonging to Khathaam called the Yemeni Kaaba. So I set out with one hundred and fifty men from Ahmas, who were horsemen.I told the Prophet ﷺ that I could not sit firmly on a horse, so he struck my chest until I saw the marks of his fingers on my chest, and he said, "Allah, make him steady, and make him a guide rightly guided."He set out toward it, demolished it, and burned it down. Then he sent a messenger to the Prophet ﷺ to give him the good news.Jareer's messenger said to the Messenger of Allah, "Messenger of Allah, by the One who sent you with the truth, I did not come to you until I had left it like a mangy camel."So he invoked blessings upon the horses of Ahmas and its men five times.
قال لي رسول الله ﷺ: ألا تريحني من ذي الخلصة، وكان بيتا فيه خثعم يسمى كعبة اليمانية، فانطلقت في خمسين ومائة من أحمس، وكانوا أصحاب خيل، فأخبرت النبي ﷺ أني لا أثبت على الخيل، فضرب في صدري حتى رأيت أثر أصابعه في صدري، فقال: اللهم ثبته واجعله هاديا مهديا، فانطلق إليها، فكسرها، وحرقها فأرسل إلى النبي ﷺ يبشره، فقال رسول جرير لرسول الله: يا رسول الله، والذي بعثك بالحق ما جئتك حتى تركتها كأنها جمل أجرب، فبارك على خيل أحمس ورجالها خمس مرات.
Bukhari narrated it in the Book of Jihad and Expeditions (3076), and Muslim in the Merits of the Companions (2476:137), both from the hadith of Ismail bin Abu Khalid, from Qays bin Abu Hazim, from Jareer bin Abdullah Bajali, who mentioned it.
