Hadith 5914

عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا قَالَ كُنْتُ أَسِيرُ عَلَى جَمَلٍ لِي فَأَعْيَا فَأَرَدْتُ أَنْ أُسَيِّبَهُ قَالَ فَلَحِقَنِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَضَرَبَهُ بِرِجْلِهِ وَدَعَا لَهُ فَسَارَ سَيْرًا لَمْ يَسِرْ مِثْلَهُ وَقَالَ بِعْنِيهِ بِوُقِيَّةٍ فَكَرِهْتُ أَنْ أَبِيعَهُ قَالَ بِعْنِيهِ فَبِعْتُهُ مِنْهُ وَاشْتَرَطْتُ حُمْلَانَهُ إِلَى أَهْلِي فَلَمَّا قَدِمْنَا أَتَيْتُهُ بِالْجَمَلِ فَقَالَ ظَنَنْتَ حِينَ مَاكَسْتَكَ أَنْ أَذْهَبَ بِجَمَلِكَ خُذْ جَمَلَكَ وَثَمَنَهُ هُمَا لَكَ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with them both), he says: I was traveling while riding on a camel, suddenly it became exhausted, and I was about to abandon it when the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) met me. He (peace and blessings be upon him) struck it with his foot and prayed for it, then it walked in such a manner as it had never walked before. Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Sell me this camel for one uqiyah. But I was reluctant to make the deal, yet the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Sell it to me. So I sold it, but on the condition that I could ride it until I reached my family. When we reached Madinah, I brought the camel to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Do you think I wanted to take your camel by offering a low price? Here, take your camel and take its price; both are yours.
