Hadith #525
Arabic Text
قَالَ أَبِي وَبِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ إِذَا سَافَرْتُمْ فِي الْخَصِيبِ فَأَعْطُوا الْإِبِلَ حَظَّهَا مِنْ الْأَرْضِ وَإِذَا سَافَرْتُمْ فِي السَّنَةِ فَبَادِرُوا نِقْيَهَا وَإِذَا عَرَّسْتُمْ فَاجْتَنِبُوا الطُّرُقَ فَإِنَّهَا طُرُقُ الدَّوَابِّ وَمَأْوَى الْهَوَامِّ بِاللَّيْلِ
English Translation
My father said, and with this chain of narration: the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'When you travel through fertile land, give the camels their due share of the earth. And when you travel through barren land, hasten your pace. And when you camp at night, avoid the road, for it is the path of animals and the refuge of insects at night.'
