حديث أَنَسٍ رضي الله عنها، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ رَأَى شَيْخًا يُهَادَى بَيْنَ ابْنَيْهِ، قَالَ: مَا بَالُ هذَا قَالُوا: نَذَرَ أَنْ يَمْشِيَ؛ قَالَ: إِنَّ اللهَ عَنْ تَعْذِيبِ هذَا نَفْسَهُ لَغَنِيٌّ وَأَمَرَهُ أَنْ يَرْكَبَ.
Anas Narrated from:
The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم saw an old man walking, supported by his two sons, and asked about him. The people informed him that he had vowed to go on foot (to the Ka'ba). He said, "Allâh تعالى is not in need of this old man's torturing himself," and ordered him to ride. ( Sahîh Al-Bukhârî, Hadîth No. 88, Vol. 3 )
