Hadith 12889

(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى ، عَنْ حُمَيْدٍ ، عَنْ ثَابِتٍ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ أَنّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَرَّ بِرَجُلٍ وَهُوَ يُهَادَى بَيْنَ ابْنَيْهِ ، قَالُوا : نَذَرَ أَنْ يَمْشِيَ ، قَالَ : " إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ لَغَنِيٌّ عَنْ تَعْذِيبِ هَذَا نَفْسَهُ " فَأَمَرَهُ أَنْ يَرْكَبَ " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) saw a man walking with the support of his two sons’ shoulders. He asked, “What is the matter with him?” They informed him that he had vowed to perform Hajj on foot. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, “Allah is free of need from this that this person should put himself in hardship.” Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) ordered him to ride, so he rode.
