"عن عبد الرحمن بن أَبى ليلى قَال: سافَرَ ناسٌ من أَصحابِ رسولِ اللَّه ﷺ فَأَرْمَلُوا، فمروُّا بحىٍّ من الأعرابِ فَسَأَلُوهُمُ القِرَى فأَبَوْا، فسألوهُم الشِّراءَ فأبَوْا، فَضَغَطُوهُمْ فأصَابُوا مِنْ طعامِهِمْ، فذهبَ الأعرابُ إلى عمرَ بنِ الخطابِ يشكُونَهُمْ، فَأَشْفَقَتِ الأنصارُ، فقالَ عمرُ: تمنعونَ ابنَ السبيلِ ما يَخْلُقُ اللَّه بالليْلِ والنهارِ في ضُروع الإِبِلِ والغنم؟ لابنُ السبيلِ أحقُّ بالماءِ من الساكنِ عليه".

"'Abd al-Rahman ibn Abi Layla said: Some people among the companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ travelled and ran out of provisions. They passed by a tribe of Bedouins and asked them for hospitality, but they refused. They asked to buy from them, but they refused. So they forced them and took some of their food. The Bedouins went to 'Umar ibn al-Khattab complaining about them. The Ansar became concerned, and 'Umar said: 'Do you prevent the traveller from what Allah creates by night and day in the udders of camels and sheep? The traveller has more right to the water than the one who settles by it.'"
