Hadith 2572

حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ الْمَرْوَزِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنِي عَلِيُّ بْنُ حُسَيْنٍ ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي ، حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ بُرَيْدَةَ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ أَبِي بُرَيْدَةَ يَقُولُ : بَيْنَمَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَمْشِي جَاءَ رَجُلٌ وَمَعَهُ حِمَارٌ فَقَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ارْكَبْ وَتَأَخَّرَ الرَّجُلُ ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " لَا أَنْتَ أَحَقُّ بِصَدْرِ دَابَّتِكَ مِنِّي إِلَّا أَنْ تَجْعَلَهُ لِي " ، قَالَ : فَإِنِّي قَدْ جَعَلْتُهُ لَكَ فَرَكِبَ .
Narrated Buraydah ibn al-Hasib: While the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was walking a man who had an ass came to him and said: Messenger of Allah, ride; and the man moved to the back of the animal. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: No, you have more right to ride in front on your animal than me unless you grant that right to me. He said: I grant it to you. So he mounted.

Explanation:
1:
From this hadith, it is understood how humble the personality of the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) was.
He (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) did not like to take the right of another person unless that person himself was pleased to give that right to him (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam).
It is also understood that justice and the expression of truth were always present in his (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) character.
