Hadith 12175
عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي مُلَيْكَةَ قَالَ كَانَ رُبَمَا سَقَطَ الْخِطَامُ مِنْ يَدِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ الصِّدِّيقِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ فَيَضْرِبُ بِذِرَاعِ نَاقَتِهِ فَيُنِيخُهَا فَيَأْخُذُهُ قَالَ فَقَالُوا لَهُ أَفَلَا أَمَرْتَنَا نُنَاوِلُكَهُ فَقَالَ إِنَّ حَبِيبِي رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَمَرَنِي أَنْ لَا أَسْأَلَ النَّاسَ شَيْئًا
It is narrated from Ibn Abi Mulaykah that sometimes the rein of the she-camel would slip from the hand of Sayyiduna Abu Bakr Siddiq, may Allah be pleased with him, and fall down. He would strike something on the front leg of the she-camel to make it sit, and then he would get down himself to pick it up. People said: You could have ordered us, we would have handed it to you. He said: My beloved, the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, commanded me not to ask people for anything.
