حَدِیث معَاذِ بنِ اَنَس الجهَنِیِّ رَضِیَ اللَّه تَعَالَى عَنه
Hadith of Mu'adh ibn Anas al-Juhani (may Allah be pleased with him)
Musnad Ahmad 15629 — Hadith of Mu'adh ibn Anas al-Juhani
(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا حَسَنٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ لَهِيعَةَ ، حَدَّثَنَا زَبَّانُ ، عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ مُعَاذٍ , عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ , أَنَّهُ مَرَّ عَلَى قَوْمٍ وَهُمْ وُقُوفٌ عَلَى دَوَابَّ لَهُمْ وَرَوَاحِلَ ، فَقَالَ لَهُمْ : " ارْكَبُوهَا سَالِمَةً وَدَعُوهَا سَالِمَةً ، وَلَا تَتَّخِذُوهَا كَرَاسِيَّ لِأَحَادِيثِكُمْ فِي الطُّرُقِ وَالْأَسْوَاقِ ، فَرُبَّ مَرْكُوبَةٍ خَيْرٌ مِنْ رَاكِبِهَا ، وَأَكْثَرُ ذِكْرًا لِلَّهِ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى مِنْهُ " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Mu'adh that the Prophet (peace be upon him) passed by some people who were standing by their animals and mounts. The Prophet (peace be upon him) said to them: "Ride on the animals when they are healthy and sound, and leave them in the same condition. Do not consider them as chairs for conversation in the roads and markets, for many mounts are better and remember Allah more than those who ride them."
