عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ صَلَّى بِنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ صَلَاةً ثُمَّ أَقْبَلَ عَلَيْنَا بِوَجْهِهِ فَقَالَ ”بَيْنَا رَجُلٌ يَسُوقُ بَقَرَةً إِذْ رَكِبَهَا فَضَرَبَهَا قَالَتْ إِنَّا لَمْ نُخْلَقْ لِهَذَا إِنَّمَا خُلِقْنَا لِلْحِرَاثَةِ“ فَقَالَ النَّاسُ سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ بَقَرَةٌ تَتَكَلَّمُ فَقَالَ ”فَإِنِّي أُومِنُ بِهَذَا أَنَا وَأَبُو بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرُ“ وَمَا هُمَا ثَمَّ ”وَبَيْنَا رَجُلٌ فِي غَنَمِهِ إِذْ عَدَا عَلَيْهَا الذِّئْبُ فَأَخَذَ شَاةً مِنْهَا فَطَلَبَهُ فَأَدْرَكَهُ فَاسْتَنْقَذَهَا مِنْهُ فَقَالَ يَا هَذَا اسْتَنْقَذْتَهَا مِنِّي فَمَنْ لَهَا يَوْمَ السَّبُعِ يَوْمَ لَا رَاعِيَ لَهَا غَيْرِي“ قَالَ النَّاسُ سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ ذِئْبٌ يَتَكَلَّمُ فَقَالَ ”إِنِّي أُومِنُ بِذَلِكَ وَأَبُو بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرُ“ وَمَا هُمَا ثَمَّ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) led us in prayer, then turned towards us and said: Once a man was driving a bull, and he mounted it and struck it. The bull spoke and said: "We have not been created for riding; we have been created for plowing." Upon hearing this, the people said in amazement: "Glory be to Allah! The bull has started speaking!" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "I, Abu Bakr, and Umar believe in the truth of this statement." Even though Abu Bakr and Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) were not present there.
Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Once a man was among his flock of sheep when a wolf attacked and snatched away a sheep. The man chased after it and rescued the sheep from it. The wolf spoke and said: "Today you have snatched it from me, but in the days of tribulation, when people will abandon their cattle and flee, and on that day I will be their only shepherd (protector), who will save them from me then?" Upon hearing this, the people again said in amazement: "Glory be to Allah! The wolf has started speaking like humans!" But the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "I, Abu Bakr, and Umar also believe in the truth of this statement." Even though both of them were not present there at that time.

Brief Explanation
Benefits: … Subhan Allah! How much trust the Noble Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) had in the faith and conviction of Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (radi Allahu anhu) and Sayyiduna Umar (radi Allahu anhu), that in their absence, he (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) is bearing witness to the truthfulness of their affirmation. This is a very great virtue (manqaba) of the two Shaykhs.
