عَنْ عمْرِو بْنِ حَمَّاد قَالَ: ثنا رَجُلٌ قَالَ:
خَرَجَ عَلِىٌّ وَعُمَرُ مِنَ الطَّوافِ فَإِذَا هُمَا بِأَعْرَابِىٍّ مَعَهُ أُمٌّ لَهُ فَحَمَلَهَا عَلَى ظَهْرِهِ وَهُوَ يَرْتَجِزُ وَيَقُولُ: أَنَا مَطِيَّتُهَا لَا أَنْفِرُ... وَإِذَا الْركَابُ ذُعِرَتْ لَا أُذْعَرُ وَمَا حَمَلَتْنِى وَأَرْضَعَتْنِى أَكْبَرُ لَبَّيْكَ الَّلهُمَّ لَبَّيْكَ. فَقَالَ عَلِىٌّ: مُرْيَا أَبَا حَفْص ادْخُلْ بِنَا الطَّوَافَ لَعَلَّ الرَّحْمَةَ تَنْزِلُ فَتَعُمَّنَا فَدَخَلَ يَطُوفُ بِهَا وَهُوَ يَقُولُ: أَنَا مَطِيَّتُهَا لَا أَنْفِرُ... وَإِذَا الْركَابُ ذُعِرَت لَا أُذْعَرُ وَمَا حَمَلَتْنِى وَأَرْضَعَتْنِى أَكْبَرُ لَبَّيْكَ الَّلهُمَّ لَبَّيْكَ قَالَ: وَعَلِيٌّ يُجيبُهُ يَقُولُ: إِنْ تَبرَّهَا فَالله أَشْكَرُ، يُجْزِيكَ بِالْقَلِيلِ الأَكْثَر

Chain of narrators
- ʿAmr b. Ḥammād
- a man
Ali and Umar were leaving from Tawaf when they saw a Bedouin with his mother. The Bedouin carried his mother on his back and was chanting: "I am her mount which does not flee... Even if the caravans are terrified, I stay calm, What she carried and nursed me for is greater, Here I am, O Allah, here I am." Ali then said: "O Abu Hafs (Umar), let us join the Tawaf; perhaps mercy will descend upon us and encompass us." So the Bedouin continued his walk with his mother, chanting: "I am her mount which does not flee... Even if the caravans are terrified, I stay calm, What she carried and nursed me for is greater, Here I am, O Allah, here I am." Ali responded to him by saying: "If you honor her, Allah is most grateful, rewarding you with more for the little."
