Riyad as-Salihin: Book 7, Hadith 15

Jabir (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: When the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) made up his mind to go in an expedition, he would say to us, “O Muhajirin and the Ansar! There are among you such people who have no property and no kinsfolk. Let everyone of you take along with him two or three men. None of us had a spare animal we took rides by turn.” So I took two or three men with me and I rode my camel by turn equally with them..

وعن جابر رضي الله عنه، عن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم ، أنه أراد أن يغزو، فقال‏:‏ يا معشر المهاجرين والأنصار‏!‏ إن من إخوانكم قوماً، ليس لهم مال، ولا عشيرة، فليضم أحدكم إليه الرجلين، أو الثلاثة، فما لأحدنا من ظهر يحمله إلا كعقبة، يعني أحدهم‏.‏ قال‏:‏ فضممت إلي اثنين أو ثلاثة مالي إلا عقبة كعقبة أحدهم من جملي‏.‏ ‏(‏‏(‏رواه أبو داود‏)‏‏)‏

The above hadith is from the Riyad as-Salihin collection of hadiths. Imam al-Nawawi’s Riyad as-Salihin is a classic hadith anthology organized into 20 books. Its creation was a profound scholarly effort spanning 44 years, culminating in a curated selection of about 1,900 narrations. The title, meaning “The Gardens of the Righteous,” reflects its spiritual and ethical content.
