وَقَالَ الْحَارِثُ: حَدَّثَنَا دَاوُدُ بْنُ رُشَيْدٍ، ثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ سُلَيْمٍ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ جَابِرٍ، قَالَ:

إِنَّ أَبَا الدَّرْدَاءِ ؓ: مَرَّ بِقَوْمٍ قَدْ أَنَاخُوا بَعِيرًا فَحَمَّلُوهُ غِرَارَتَيْنِ، ثُمَّ عَلَوْهُ بِأُخْرَى فَلَمْ يَسْتَطِعِ الْبَعِيرُ أَنْ يَنْهَضَ، فَأَلْقَاهَا عَنْهُ أَبُو الدَّرْدَاءِ ؓ ثُمَّ أَنْهَضَهُ، فَقَالَ أَبُو الدَّرْدَاءِ ؓ: إِنْ غَفَرَ اللهُ لَكُمْ مَا تَأْتُونَ إِلَى الْبَهَائِمِ لَيَغْفِرَنَّ عَظِيمًا، إِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ: إِنَّ اللهَ تَعَالَى يُوصِيكُمْ بِهَذِهِ الْعُجْمِ خَيْرًا، أَنْ تُنْزِلُوا بِهَا مَنَازِلَهَا، فَإِذَا أَصَابَتْكُمْ سَنَةٌ أَنْ تُنَحُّوا عَنْهَا نِقْيَهَا

✧ Abu al-Darda' ؓ passed by a people who had made a camel kneel and loaded two sacks on it, then placed another on top of that, and the camel was unable to rise, so Abu al-Darda' ؓ removed that sack and helped it rise. Then Abu al-Darda' ؓ said: "If Allah forgives you for what you do to the beasts, He will surely forgive a great deal. I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: 'Allah, Blessed and Exalted, enjoins you to treat these mute animals well: to let them alight at their resting places, and if a drought afflicts you, to leave their marrow.'"
