Sub-Chapter (Baab)

Sahih Al Bukhari 999

(Imām Bukhārī narrates): Ismail narrated the hadith to us, he said: Imam Malik narrated the hadith to me, from Abu Bakr bin Umar bin Abdur Rahman bin Abdullah bin Umar bin al-Khattab, from Sa'id bin Yasar, he narrated that

I was going by night with Hazrat Abdullah bin Umar (Allāh be pleased with them both) on the road to Makkah, so Sa'id said: When I feared the coming of morning, I got down from my mount, then I offered Witr, then I caught up with him, so Hazrat Abdullah bin Umar asked: Where were you? I said: I feared the coming of morning, so I got down from my mount and offered Witr. So Hazrat Abdullah said: Is there not for you an excellent example in the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ? I said: Why not! By Allāh! He said: Then indeed the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ used to offer Witr upon a camel.

حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي مَالِكٌ عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرِ بْنِ عُمَرَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ بْنِ الخطَّابِ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ أَنَّهُ قَالَ كُنتُ أَسِيرُ مَعَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ بِطَريقِ مَكَّةَ فَقَالَ سَعِيدٌ فَلَمَّا خَشِيتُ الصُّبحَ نَزَلْتُ فَأَوْتَرْتُ ثُمَّ لَحِقْتُهُ فقالَ عبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ أَيْنَ كُنْتَ فَقُلتُ خَشِيتُ الصُّبْحَ فَنَزَلْتُ فَأَوْتَرْتُ فَقالَ عَبدُ اللَّهِ أَلَيْسَ لَكَ فِي رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِسْوَةٌ حَسنةٌ فَقُلت بَلَى وَاللَّهِ قَالَ فَإِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ يوتِرُ عَلَى الْبَعِيرِ
