It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) saw an old man who was coming, dragging himself with the support of his two sons. The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "What has happened to this old man?" His two sons replied, "O Messenger of Allah, our father has made a vow to walk on foot." So the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O old man, ride! Indeed, Allah is free from need of you and your such vow."
