Hadith 65
The Book of Pilgrimage
Anas reported that Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) happened to pass by a person who was driving a sacrificial camel, whereupon he (the Prophet) said:
Ride on It. He said: It is a sacrificial camel. Thereupon he (the Prophet) said twice or thrice: Ride on it.
وَحَدَّثَنِي عَمْرٌو النَّاقِدُ، وَسُرَيْجُ بْنُ يُونُسَ، قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا هُشَيْمٌ، أَخْبَرَنَا حُمَيْدٌ، عَنْ ثَابِتٍ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، قَالَ وَأَظُنُّنِي قَدْ سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْ، أَنَسٍ ح. وَحَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ يَحْيَى، - وَاللَّفْظُ لَهُ - أَخْبَرَنَا هُشَيْمٌ، عَنْ حُمَيْدٍ، عَنْ ثَابِتٍ الْبُنَانِيِّ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، قَالَ مَرَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم بِرَجُلٍ يَسُوقُ بَدَنَةً فَقَالَ " ارْكَبْهَا " . فَقَالَ إِنَّهَا بَدَنَةٌ . قَالَ " ارْكَبْهَا " . مَرَّتَيْنِ أَوْ ثَلاَثًا .
