Arabic Text
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ حَدَّثَنَا حُمَيْدٌ حَدَّثَنَا ثَابِتٌ قَالَ قَالَ أَنَسٌ مُرَّ بِشَيْخٍ كَبِيرٍ يُهَادَى بَيْنَ
ابْنَيْهِ قَالَ فَقَالَ مَا بَالُ هَذَا قَالُوا نَذَرَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَنْ يَمْشِيَ قَالَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ عَنْ تَعْذِيبِ هَذَا نَفْسَهُ لَغَنِيٌّ فَأَمَرَهُ أَنْ يَرْكَبَ فَرَكِبَ
