Hadith 7533

(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْأَعْلَى ، عَنْ يُونُسَ يَعْنِي ابْنَ عُبَيْدٍ ، عَنْ الصَّلْتِ بْنِ غَالِبٍ الْهُجَيْمِيِّ ، عَنْ مُسْلِمٍ ، سَأَلَ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ عَنِ الشُّرْبِ قَائِمًا ، قَالَ : " يَا ابْنَ أَخِي ، رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَقَلَ رَاحِلَتَهُ وَهِيَ مُنَاخَةٌ ، وَأَنَا آخِذٌ بِخِطَامِهَا ، أَوْ زِمَامِهَا وَاضِعًا رِجْلِي عَلَى يَدِهَا ، فَجَاءَ نَفَرٌ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ ، فَقَامُوا حَوْلَهُ ، فَأُتِيَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِإِنَاءٍ مِنْ لَبَنٍ ، فَشَرِبَ وَهُوَ عَلَى رَاحِلَتِهِ ، ثُمَّ نَاوَلَ الَّذِي يَلِيهِ ، عَنْ يَمِينِهِ ، فَشَرِبَ قَائِمًا ، حَتَّى شَرِبَ الْقَوْمُ كُلُّهُمْ قِيَامًا " .
Once, Muslim (may Allah have mercy on him) asked Hazrat Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) about the issue of drinking water while standing. He replied, "Nephew! I have seen that once the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) tied his mount, which was sitting, and I was holding its reins in such a way that my foot was on its leg. Meanwhile, some people from the Quraysh came and stood around the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). During this time, a vessel of milk was brought to the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) drank it while sitting on the mount, then graciously passed it to the person on his right. He drank it while standing, and thus all the people drank that milk while standing."
