Sahih al-Bukhari 2718

Translation

While I was riding a (slow) and tired camel, the Prophet ﷺ passed by and beat it and prayed for Allah's Blessings for it. The camel became so fast as it had never been before. The Prophet ﷺ then said, "Sell it to me for one Uqiyya (of gold)." I said, "No." He again said, "Sell it to me for one Uqiyya (of gold)." I sold it and stipulated that I should ride it to my house. When we reached (Medina) I took that camel to the Prophet ﷺ and he gave me its price. I returned home but he sent for me (and when I went to him) he said, "I will not take your camel. Take your camel as a gift for you." (Various narrations are mentioned here with slight variations in expressions relating the condition that Jabir had the right to ride the sold camel up to Medina).
