English narration
Narrated by أنس بن مالك الأنصاري
Narrated Anas bin Malik: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ saw a man that he was supported between his sons. He asked about him, and (the people) said: He has taken a vow to walk (on foot). Thereupon he said: Allah has no need that this man should punish himself, and he ordered him to ride. Abu Dawud said: Amr bin Abi Amir has also narrated a similar tradition from al-Araj on the authority of Abu Hurairah from the Prophet ﷺ.

رَأَى رَجُلًا يُهَادَى بَيْنَ ابْنَيْهِ ، فَسَأَلَ عَنْهُ : فَقَالُوا : نَذَرَ أَنْ يَمْشِيَ ، فَقَالَ : إِنَّ اللَّهَ لَغَنِيٌّ عَنْ تَعْذِيبِ هَذَا نَفْسَهُ ، وَأَمَرَهُ أَنْ يَرْكَبَ
