Musnad Abi Ya'la 3842 — the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saw a man walking
حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ ، حَدَّثَنَا حُمَيْدٌ ، عَنْ ثَابِتٍ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ رَأَى رَجُلًا يُهَادَى بَيْنَ ابْنَيْهِ ، فَقَالَ : مَا هَذَا ؟ قَالُوا : نَذَرَ أَنْ يَمْشِيَ إِلَى الْبَيْتِ ، فَقَالَ : إِنَّ اللهَ لَغَنِيٌّ عَنْ تَعْذِيبِ هَذَا نَفْسَهُ ، ثُمَّ أَمَرَهُ فَرَكِبَ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) saw a man walking (with great difficulty), supported on the shoulders of his two sons, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "What is the matter?" The people said that he had vowed to walk on foot to the House of Allah (the Ka'bah). At this he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Allah Almighty is entirely free of need of this man putting himself (in this way) into hardship and torment." Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) ordered him to go riding.
