Mu'jam Kabir Tabarani 14558 — A camel belonging to an orphan

وَبِإِسْنَادِهِ، عَنْ عِصْمَةَ قَالَ: شَرَدَ عَلَيْنَا بَعِيرٌ لِيَتِيمٍ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ فَلَمْ نَقْدِرْ عَلَى أَخْذِهِ، فَجِئْنَا إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَذَكَرْنَا ذَلِكَ لَهُ فَقَامَ مَعَنَا حَتَّى جِئْنَا الْحَائِطَ الَّذِي فِيهِ الْبَعِيرُ، فَلَمَّا رَأَى الْبَعِيرُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَقْبَلَ حَتَّى سَجَدَ لَهُ، قُلْنَا: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، لَوْ أَمَرْتَنَا أَنْ نَسْجُدَ لَكَ كَمَا يُسْجَدُ لِلْمُلُوكِ قَالَ: «لَيْسَ ذَلِكَ فِي أُمَّتِي، لَوْ كُنْتُ فَاعِلًا لَأَمَرْتُ النِّسَاءَ أَنْ يَسْجُدْنَ لِأَزْوَاجِهِنَّ»
Sayyiduna Ismah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: A camel belonging to an orphan of the Ansar bolted from us and we could not catch it, so we came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and mentioned it to him (peace and blessings be upon him). He (peace and blessings be upon him) got up with us until we reached the garden in which the camel was. When the camel saw the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), it came forward until it prostrated before him (peace and blessings be upon him). We said: O Messenger of Allah! If you were to order us, we too would prostrate to you, just as people prostrate to kings. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "That is not in my Ummah. If I were to do that, I would order women to prostrate to their husbands."
