Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah

It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) had a she-camel which was called ‘Adhba’. No one could surpass this she-camel. Then a Bedouin came riding a young camel and surpassed this she-camel. This was very hard on the Muslims. They said, “O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! ‘Adhba’ has been surpassed.” The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: “Indeed, it is incumbent upon Allah that whatever rises high in this world, Allah will also bring it down.”
