Chapter on What Has Been Reported Regarding His ﷺ Walking
Hadith 11168
عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ إِذَا مَشَى مَشَى مُجْتَمِعًا لَيْسَ فِيهِ كَسَلٌ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) that when the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) walked, he walked briskly; there was no sign of laziness in it.
Hadith 11169
عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ كُنْتُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي جَنَازَةٍ فَكُنْتُ إِذَا مَشَيْتُ سَبَقَنِي فَأُهَرْوِلُ فَإِذَا هَرْوَلْتُ سَبَقْتُهُ فَالْتَفَتُّ إِلَى رَجُلٍ إِلَى جَنْبِي فَقُلْتُ تُطْوَى لَهُ الْأَرْضُ وَخَلِيلِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him), he says: I was in the company of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) at a funeral. When I walked at a normal pace, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) would get ahead of me, and when I walked with a light jogging pace, then I would get ahead of him. A man was walking alongside me, I said to him: By the Friend of Ibrahim (i.e., Allah)! The earth is folded up for the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him).
Hadith 11170
عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ يَقُولُ مَا رَأَيْتُ شَيْئًا أَحْسَنَ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ كَأَنَّ الشَّمْسَ تَجْرِي فِي جَبْهَتِهِ وَمَا رَأَيْتُ أَحَدًا أَسْرَعَ فِي مِشْيَتِهِ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَأَنَّمَا الْأَرْضُ تُطْوَى لَهُ إِنَّا لَنُجْهِدُ أَنْفُسَنَا وَإِنَّهُ لَغَيْرُ مُكْتَرِثٍ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him), he says: I have not seen anyone more handsome than the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him); it seemed as if the sun was moving in his forehead. And I have not seen anyone swifter than the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him); it seemed as if the earth was folded up for him. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) did not walk very fast, but even then, in order to keep up with him, we had to walk briskly.
