Chapter 17 · The Book of Pilgrimageوحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَبِي عُمَرَ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي نَجِيحٍ، وَأَيُّوبَ، وَحُمَيْدٍ، وَعَبْدِ الْكَرِيمِ، عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي لَيْلَى، عَنْ كَعْبِ بْنِ عُجْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَرَّ بِهِ وَهُوَ بِالْحُدَيْبِيَةِ، قَبْلَ أَنْ يَدْخُلَ مَكَّةَ، وَهُوَ مُحْرِمٌ، وَهُوَ يُوقِدُ تَحْتَ قِدْرٍ، وَالْقَمْلُ يَتَهَافَتُ عَلَى وَجْهِهِ، فَقَالَ: «أَيُؤْذِيكَ هَوَامُّكَ هَذِهِ؟» قَالَ: نَعَمْ، قَالَ: «فَاحْلِقْ رَأْسَكَ، وَأَطْعِمْ فَرَقًا بَيْنَ سِتَّةِ مَسَاكِينَ، - وَالْفَرَقُ ثَلَاثَةُ آصُعٍ -، أَوْ صُمْ ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ، أَوْ انْسُكْ نَسِيكَةً» قَالَ ابْنُ أَبِي نَجِيحٍ: «أَوِ اذْبَحْ شَاةً».

The Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) happened to pass by him at Hudaibiya before entering Mecca in a state of Ihram and he (Ka'b) was kindling fire under the cooking pot and vermin were creeping on his (Ka`b's) face. Thereupon (the Holy Prophet) said: Do these vermin trouble you? He (Ka'b) said: Yes. The Messenger of Allah (way peace be upon him) said: Shave your head and give some quantity of food enough to feed six needy persons (faraq is equal to three sa's), or observe fast for three days or offer sacrifice of a sacrificial animal. Ibn Najih (one of the narrators) said: Or sacrifice a goat.
