Chapter on the Best Days for Travel, Bidding Farewell to the Traveler, Escorting Him, and Praying for Him
Hadith 2292
عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: ((السَّفَرُ قِطْعَةٌ مِنَ الْعَذَابِ، يَمْنَعُ أَحَدَكُمْ طَعَامَهُ وَشَرَابَهُ وَنَوْمَهُ فَإِذَا قَضَى أَحَدُكُمْ نَهْمَتَهُ مِنْ سَفَرِهِ فَلْيُعَجِّلْ إِلَى أَهْلِهِ))
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him, that the Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Travel is a portion of torment, it prevents you from eating, drinking, and sleeping. Therefore, when any of you has completed his work during travel, he should hasten to return to his home."
Hadith 2293
عَنِ ابْنِ كَعْبِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ إِذَا أَرَادَ أَنْ يُسَافِرَ لَمْ يُسَافِرْ إِلَّا يَوْمَ الْخَمِيسِ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ka'b bin Malik that when the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, intended to set out on a journey, he would not begin the journey on any day other than Thursday.
Hadith 2294
(وَعَنْهُ مِنْ طَرِيقٍ ثَانٍ) أَنَّ كَعْبَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ قَالَ: قَلَّمَا كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَخْرُجُ إِذَا أَرَادَ سَفَرًا إِلَّا يَوْمَ الْخَمِيسِ
(Second chain) Sayyiduna Ka'b bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) says: When the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) intended to travel, he would rarely set out except on a Thursday.
Hadith 2295
عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُرِيدُ سَفَرًا فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ! أَوْصِنِي، قَالَ: ((أُوْصِيكَ بِتَقْوَى اللَّهِ وَالتَّكْبِيرِ عَلَى كُلِّ شَرَفٍ))، فَلَمَّا وَلَّى الرَّجُلُ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ: ((اللَّهُمَّ ازْوِ لَهُ الْأَرْضَ وَهَوِّنْ عَلَيْهِ السَّفَرَ))
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him, that a man who intended to travel came to the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, and said: O Messenger of Allah! Advise me. The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: I advise you to fear Allah and to say "Allahu Akbar" (Allah is the Greatest) whenever you ascend a high place. When that man turned to leave, the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: O Allah! Fold the earth for this man (i.e., shorten his journey) and make his travel easy for him.
Hadith 2296
عَنْ سَالِمِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ: كَانَ أَبِي عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ إِذَا أَتَى الرَّجُلُ وَهُوَ يُرِيدُ السَّفَرَ قَالَ لَهُ: اُدْنُ حَتَّى أُوَدِّعَكَ كَمَا كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُوَدِّعُنَا فَيَقُولُ: ((أَسْتَوْدِعُ اللَّهَ دِينَكَ وَأَمَانَتَكَ وَخَوَاتِيمَ عَمَلِكَ))
Salim bin Abdullah narrates that when someone came to my father, Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with him), with the intention of traveling, he would say: Come close to me, so that I may bid you farewell in the same manner as the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) used to bid us farewell. Then he would say: I entrust your religion, your trust, and the end of your deeds to Allah.
Hadith 2297
(وَمِنْ طَرِيقٍ ثَانٍ) عَنْ قَزَعَةَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: قَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ وَأَرْسَلَنِي فِي حَاجَةٍ لَهُ: تَعَالَ حَتَّى أُوَدِّعَكَ كَمَا وَدَّعَنِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَأَرْسَلَنِي فِي حَاجَةٍ لَهُ فَأَخَذَ بِيَدِي فَقَالَ: أَسْتَوْدِعُ اللَّهَ دِينَكَ وَأَمَانَتَكَ وَخَوَاتِيمَ عَمَلِكَ
(Second chain) Qaza'ah says: Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) sent me for some task and said: Come here so that I may bid you farewell as the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) bade me farewell when sending me for some task. Then he took my hand and said: I entrust your religion, your trust, and the end of your deeds to Allah.
