English Translation

Ibrahim narrated to us, al-Harith ibn 'Umayr narrated to us, from Humayd al-Tawil, from Anas (رضي الله عنه), that the Prophet ﷺ, when returning from a journey and looking at the walls of Madinah, would urge his camel forward. If he was on an animal, he would spur it on, out of his love for it — meaning Madinah.
