وَحَدَّثَنِى سَلَمَةُ بْنُ شَبِيبٍ حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ أَعْيَنَ حَدَّثَنَا مَعْقِلٌ - وَهُوَ ابْنُ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ - عَنِ الزُّهْرِىِّ أَخْبَرَنِى عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ كَعْبِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ عَنْ عَمِّهِ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ كَعْبٍ وَكَانَ قَائِدَ كَعْبٍ حِينَ أُصِيبَ بَصَرُهُ وَكَانَ أَعْلَمَ قَوْمِهِ وَأَوْعَاهُمْ لأَحَادِيثِ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبِى كَعْبَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ وَهُوَ أَحَدُ الثَّلاَثَةِ الَّذِينَ تِيبَ عَلَيْهِمْ يُحَدِّثُ أَنَّهُ لَمْ يَتَخَلَّفْ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- فِى غَزْوَةٍ غَزَاهَا قَطُّ غَيْرَ غَزْوَتَيْنِ. وَسَاقَ الْحَدِيثَ وَقَالَ فِيهِ وَغَزَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- بِنَاسٍ كَثِيرٍ يَزِيدُونَ عَلَى عَشْرَةِ آلاَفٍ وَلاَ يَجْمَعُهُمْ دِيوَانُ حَافِظٍ.

'Abdur-Rahman bin 'Abdullah bin Ka'b bin Malik narrated that his paternal uncle, 'Ubaidullah bin Ka'b, who was Ka'b's guide when he lost his sight, and who was the most knowledgeable of his people about the Ahadith of the Companions of the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w), said: "I heard my father Ka'b bin Malik, who was one of the three whose repentance was accepted, say that he did not stay behind from accompanying the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) on any campaign that he went on, except for two campaigns ..." and he quoted the Hadith and said: "The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) set out on the campaign with many people, more than ten thousand, and there was no record of their names."
