Mu'jam Kabir Tabarani 10765 — When the land is green and fertile
حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ، ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَبِي نُعَيْمٍ الْوَاسِطِيُّ، ثنا هُشَيْمٌ، حَدَّثَنِي الْمَدِينِيُّ، عَنْ أَبِي الْحُوَيْرِثِ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ: إِذَا كَانَتِ الْأَرْضُ مُخْصِبَةً، فَتَقَصَّدُوا فِي السَّيْرِ، وَأَعْطُوا الرِّكَابَ حَقَّهَا؛ فَإِنَّ اللهَ تَعَالَى رَفِيقٌ يُحِبُّ الرِّفْقَ، وَإِنْ كَانَتْ مُجْدِبَةً فَانْجُوا، وَعَلَيْكُمْ بِالدُّلْجَةِ؛ فَإِنَّ الْأَرْضَ تُطْوَى بِاللَّيْلِ، وَإِيَّاكُمْ وَالتَّعْرِيسَ عَلَى ظَهْرِ الطَّرِيقِ؛ فَإِنَّهُ مَأْوَى الْحَيَّاتِ، وَمَدْرَجَةُ السِّبَاعِ "
Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: When the land is green and fertile, be moderate in your travel and give the riding animals their due, for Allah Almighty is gentle and loves gentleness; and if the land is barren, travel swiftly. Hold fast to travelling by night, for the land is covered more quickly at night. And beware of making camp on the road, for it is the dwelling place of snakes and the pathway of beasts of prey.
