KINDNESS

983

“The Prophet, praise and peace be upon him, always rode at the rear so he could help drive the weaker animals, and to give a ride to those who had no mount and to pray for them.”

Abu Daud with a chain up to Jabir who related this.

SUPPLICATIONS FOR RIDING A MOUNT ON

A JOURNEY

Allah, the Exalted says:

“And (it is He), who has created all the pairs

and appointed for you ships and the cattle

on which you ride, so that you can sit upon their backs

and then remember the Favors of your Lord and say:

‘Exaltations to Him who has subjected these to us

otherwise, we ourselves were not capable of it,

indeed, to our Lord we are turning.’” 43:12-14 Koran
