1920. It was reported from Ibn 'Abbās, that he said: "The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ departed from 'Arafah in a peaceful (and unhurried) manner, having placed Usāmah behind him, and he said: 'O people! Be gentle, for piety is not achieved by aggravating the horses and camels.' So I did not see them (the animals) raising their legs in haste until reaching Jam' (Al-Muzdalifah)." — Wahb (one of the narrators) added: "Then he placed Al-Faḍl bin 'Abbās behind him. And he said: 'O people! Piety is not achieved by aggravating the horses and camels, so be gentle.'" He said: "So I did not see them (the animals) raising their legs in haste until reaching Minā." (Ḍa'if)
