Majma al-Zawaid — Hadith 14168

وَعَنْ يَعْلَى بْنِ أُمَيَّةَ قَالَ : بَيْنَا نَحْنُ نَسِيرُ ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - إِذَا نَحْنُ بِبَعِيرٍ قَالَ : فَلَمَّا رَأَى رَسُولَ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - سَمَا بِرَأْسِهِ ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : " يَا يَعْلَى ، انْطَلِقْ إِلَى أَهْلِ هَذَا الْبَعِيرِ فَاشْتَرِهِ مِنْهُمْ ، وَإِنْ لَمْ يَبِيعُوكَ فَقُلْ : إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - يُوصِيكُمْ بِهِ " . قَالُوا : أَيْمُ اللَّهِ لَقَدْ نَضَحْنَا عَلَيْهِ عِشْرِينَ سَنَةً ، وَإِنْ كُنَّا لَنُرِيدُ أَنْ نَنْحَرَهُ بِالْغَدَاةِ ، فَأَمَّا إِذَا أَوْصَى بِهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فَإِنَّا لَا نَأْلُوهُ خَيْرًا .
رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ . وَإِسْنَادُهُ حَسَنٌ .
Sayyiduna Ya'la bin Umayyah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: Once we were travelling with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). Meanwhile a camel came before us. When it saw the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), it raised its head. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O Ya'la! Go to the owners of this camel and buy this camel from them. If they do not sell it to you, then say that the Messenger of Allah urges you to treat it well." Those people said: "By Allah! We have been carrying water on it for twenty years, and tomorrow we had decided to slaughter it. But now that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) has urged us concerning it, we will not fall short in doing good to it."
Al-Tabarani recorded it, and its chain is hasan (good).
