Arabic Text
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الصَّمَدِ حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي أَخْبَرَنَا الْجُرَيْرِيُّ عَنِ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْجُشَمِيِّ حَدَّثَنَا جُنْدُبٌ قَالَ جَاءَ أَعْرَابِيٌّ فَأَنَاخَ رَاحِلَتَهُ ثُمَّ عَقَلَهَا ثُمَّ صَلَّى خَلْفَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَلَمَّا صَلَّى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَتَى رَاحِلَتَهُ فَأَطْلَقَ عِق
َالَهَا ثُمَّ رَكِبَهَا ثُمَّ نَادَى اللَّهُمَّ ارْحَمْنِي وَمُحَمَّدًا وَلَا تُشْرِكْ فِي رَحْمَتِنَا أَحَدًا فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَتَقُولُونَ هَذَا أَضَلُّ أَمْ بَعِيرُهُ أَلَمْ تَسْمَعُوا مَا قَالَ قَالُوا بَلَى قَالَ لَقَدْ حَظَرْتَ رَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ وَاسِعَةٌ إِنَّ اللَّهَ خَلَقَ مِائَةَ رَحْمَةٍ فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ رَحْمَةً وَاحِدَةً يَتَعَاطَفُ بِهَا الْخَلَائِقُ جِنُّهَا وَإِنْسُهَا وَبَهَائِمُهَا وَعِنْدَهُ تِسْعٌ وَتِسْعُونَ أَتَقُولُونَ هُوَ أَضَلُّ أَمْ بَعِيرُهُ

English Translation
ʿAbd al-Ṣamad narrated from his father, from al-Jurayrī, from Abū ʿAbd Allāh al-Jushamī — Jundub narrated to us — who said: 'A Bedouin came and made his camel kneel, then hobbled it, then prayed behind the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ finished the prayer, [the Bedouin] went to his camel, untied its hobble, mounted it, then called out: "O Allah, have mercy on me and Muḥammad, and do not include anyone else in our mercy!" the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Do you say this one is more astray, or his camel? Did you not hear what he said?" They said: "Yes." He said: "You have restricted [Allah's mercy]. Allah's mercy is vast. Indeed Allah created one hundred mercies. He sent down one mercy by which all creatures show affection to one another — their jinn, their humans, and their animals — and with Him are ninety-nine. Do you say he is more astray, or his camel?"'
