آدَابُ الرُّكُوبِ
The etiquette of riding
Mustadrak al-Hakim — Hadith 1644
اُردوEn
حدَّثَناه أبو العباس محمد بن يعقوب، حدثنا بَحْر بن نَضْر، حدثنا عبد الله بن وهب، أخبرني ابن أبي الزِّناد، عن أبيه، عن الأعرج، عن أبي هريرة قال: سمعتُ رسول الله ﷺ يقول: "إنَّ على كلِّ ذُرْوةٍ بعيرٍ شيطانًا، فامتَهِنُوهُنَّ بِالرُّكوب، فإنَّما يَحمِلُ اللهُ ﷿" (2).
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him): I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say: "Indeed, on the hump of every camel there is a devil, so put them to use by riding them, for the One who carries is none other than Allah, the Mighty and Majestic."

Shaykh Adil Murshid et al.
(2) إسناده حسن من أجل ابن أبي الزناد، واسمه: عبد الرحمن بن عبد الله بن ذكوان. ¤ ¤ الأعرج: هو عبد الرحمن بن هرمز.
Grading: The isnad is hasan on account of Ibn Abi al-Zinad (Abd al-Rahman bin Abd Allah).
Criticism of a narrator: Al-A'raj is Abd al-Rahman bin Hurmuz.
وأخرجه ابن خزيمة (2547) عن يونس بن عبد الأعلى، عن عبد الله بن وهب، بهذا الإسناد.
Reference / Source: Ibn Khuzaymah (2547) narrated it via Yunus bin Abd al-A'la from Abd Allah bin Wahb with this same chain.
ويشهد له حديث أبي لاسٍ المتقدم برقم (1641).
Corroborating chains and supporting reports: A supporting report (shahid) for it is the earlier hadith of Abu Las (may Allah be pleased with him) (no. 1641).
قوله: "فامتهنوهنَّ بالركوب "قال المناوي في "فيض القدير": لتلين وتذل، وقد يكون بها نار من جهة الخلقة يطفئها الركوب، لأن المؤمن إذا ركب حمد الله وسبحه، فكأنه قال: سكنوا هذا الكِبر بالركوب المقرون بذكر الله المنفر للشيطان.
Important point: The saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) "fa-imtahinuhunna bi al-rukub" (put them to use/tame them by riding): al-Munawi says in "Fayd al-Qadir" that its purpose is to make the animal submissive, and the fierceness in the animal's nature is removed by riding and the remembrance of Allah. It is as though he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: calm this arrogance through riding combined with the remembrance of Allah, which drives away Satan.
وقوله: "فإنما يحمل الله ﷿" قال: أي: لا يعجب الإنسان بحملها، فإنَّ الحامل هو الله.
Important point: The saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) "fa-innama yahmilu Allah 'azza wa jall" (it is Allah alone who carries): that is, a person should not become proud of the animal carrying him, for the real carrier is Allah.
