Musnad Abi Ya'la 1880 — the Messenger of Allah ﷺ set out for Makkah
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ بْنِ أَبَانَ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَهَّابِ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْمَجِيدِ يَعْنِي الثَّقَفِيَّ ، عَنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - خَرَجَ عَامَ الْفَتْحِ إِلَى مَكَّةَ فِي رَمَضَانَ ، فَصَامَ حَتَّى بَلَغَ كُرَاعَ الْغَمِيمِ ، قَالَ : فَصَامَ النَّاسُ ، وَهُمْ مُشَاةٌ وَرُكْبَانٌ ، فَقِيلَ لَهُ : إِنَّ النَّاسَ قَدْ شَقَّ عَلَيْهِمُ الصَّوْمُ ، إِنَّمَا يَنْظُرُونَ مَا تَفْعَلُ أَنْتَ ، فَدَعَا بِقَدَحٍ فَرَفَعَهُ إِلَيْهِ حَتَّى نَظَرَ النَّاسُ ، ثُمَّ شَرِبَ ، فَأَفْطَرَ بَعْضُ النَّاسِ ، وَصَامَ بَعْضٌ ، فَقِيلَ لِلنَّبِيِّ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : إِنَّ بَعْضَهُمْ صَامَ ، فَقَالَ : أُولَئِكَ الْعُصَاةُ ، وَاجْتَمَعَ إِلَيْهِ الْمُشَاةُ مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ ، فَصَفُّوا إِلَيْهِ ، فَقَالُوا : نَتَعَرَّضُ لِدَعَوَاتِ رَسُولِ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - وَقَدِ اشْتَدَّ السَّفَرُ ، وَطَالَتِ الشُّقَّةُ ، فَقَالَ لَهُمُ : اسْتَعِينُوا بِالنَّسْلِ ، فَإِنَّهُ يَقْطَعُ عَنْكُمُ الْأَرْضَ وَتَخِفُّونَ لَهُ ، قَالَ : فَفَعَلْنَا ، فَخَفَفْنَا لَهُ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) set out for Makkah in Ramadan in the year of the Conquest. He (peace and blessings be upon him) was fasting until he reached the place Kura' al-Ghamim, and the people too were fasting, both those on foot and those riding. It was said to him (peace and blessings be upon him): "Fasting has become very hard on the people, and they are only waiting to see what you (peace and blessings be upon him) do." So he (peace and blessings be upon him) called for a cup of water and raised it so high that all the people saw it; then he (peace and blessings be upon him) drank it and broke his fast. At this some people broke their fast but some remained fasting. When the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was told: "Some people have still not broken their fast," he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Those are the disobedient ones." After this the Companions who were on foot gathered around him (peace and blessings be upon him), formed rows and said: "We seek the supplications of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), for the hardship of the journey has increased and the distance has become long." He (peace and blessings be upon him) said to them: "Seek help from nasl (walking quickly with short steps), for it will cover the ground quickly for you and you will feel light." Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) says: We did so, and we truly felt ease and lightness on the journey.
