Sahih al-Bukhari 5950 (Book 78, Hadith 209)
(the Prophet’s wife) was riding behind him on his she-camel. After they had covered a portion of the
way suddenly the foot of the she-camel slipped and both the Prophet (ﷺ) and the woman (i.e., his wife,
Safiya) fell down. Abu Talha jumped quickly off his camel and came to the Prophet (saying.) “O
Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ)! Let Allah sacrifice me for you! Have you received any injury?” The Prophet (ﷺ) said,
“No, but take care of the woman (my wife).” Abu Talha covered his face with his garment and went
towards her and threw his garment over her. Then the woman got up and Abu Talha prepared their she-camel (by tightening its saddle, etc.) and both of them (the Prophet (ﷺ) and Safiya) mounted it. Then all of
them proceeded and when they approached near Medina, or saw Medina, the Prophet (ﷺ) said, “Ayibun, taibun, `abidun, liRabbina hamidun (We are coming back (to Medina) with repentance, worshiping
(our Lord) and celebrating His (our Lord’s) praises”. The Prophet (ﷺ) continued repeating these words till
he entered the city of Medina.
Sahih al-Bukhari 5950 (Book 78, Hadith 209)
The above hadith is from the Sahih al-Buhari collection of hadiths. Within the Islamic scholarly tradition, few works hold as much weight as Sahih al-Bukhari. This vast compilation, assembled by the Persian scholar al-Bukhārī circa 847, is a cornerstone of Sunni faith and practice. It is one of the six canonical hadith collections known collectively as the Kutub al-Sittah. Imam al-Bukhārī’s work is particularly celebrated for its author’s stringent criteria in verifying the chain of narration (isnad), resulting in a trusted body of over 7,500 hadiths organized into 97 distinct chapters that cover every aspect of life.
