Hadith 4808
حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ ، وَأَبُو بَكْرٍ ابْنَا أَبِي شَيْبَةَ ، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الصَّبَّاحِ الْبَزَّازُ ، قَالُوا : حَدَّثَنَا شَرِيكٌ ، عَنْ الْمِقْدَامِ بْنِ شُرَيْحٍ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، قَالَ : سَأَلْتُ عَائِشَةَ عَنِ الْبَدَاوَةِ ، فَقَالَتْ : " كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَبْدُو إِلَى هَذِهِ التِّلَاعِ ، وَإِنَّهُ أَرَادَ الْبَدَاوَةَ مَرَّةً ، فَأَرْسَلَ إِلَيَّ نَاقَةً مُحَرَّمَةً مِنْ إِبِلِ الصَّدَقَةِ ، فَقَالَ لِي : يَا عَائِشَةُ ، ارْفُقِي ، فَإِنَّ الرِّفْقَ لَمْ يَكُنْ فِي شَيْءٍ قَطُّ إِلَّا زَانَهُ ، وَلَا نُزِعَ مِنْ شَيْءٍ قَطُّ إِلَّا شَانَهُ " ، قَالَ ابْنُ الصَّبَّاحِ فِي حَدِيثِهِ : مُحَرَّمَةٌ يَعْنِي : لَمْ تُرْكَبْ .
Narrated Aishah, Ummul Muminin: Al-Miqdam ibn Shurayh, quoting his father, said: I asked Aishah about living in the desert. She said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to go to the desert to these rivulets. Once he intended to go to the desert and he sent to me a she-camel from the camel of sadaqah which had not been used for riding so far. He said to me: Aishah! show gentleness, for if gentleness is found in anything, it beautifies it and when it is taken out from anything it damages it. Ibn al-Sabbah said in his version: Muharramah means a mount which has not been used for riding.
