Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ أَخْبَرَنَا حُمَيْدٌ وَثَابِتٌ عَنْ أَنَسٍ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ رَأَى رَجُلًا يُهَادَى بَيْنَ ابْنَيْنِ لَهُ فَقَالَ مَا هَذَا فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ نَذَرَ أَنْ يَحُجَّ مَاشِيًا فَقَالَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ لَغَنِيٌّ عَنْ تَعْذِيبِهِ نَفْسَهُ فَلْيَرْكَبْ.
English Translation
The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) saw a man being supported between his two sons while walking. He asked: 'What is this?' They said: 'O Messenger of Allah, he vowed to perform Hajj on foot.' He said: 'Indeed Allah has no need for this man to torture himself. Let him ride.'
