Arabic text

2877 - حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ نُمَيْرٍ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، قَالَ: «ضَمَّرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الْخَيْلَ، فَكَانَ يُرْسِلُ الَّتِي ضُمِّرَتْ مِنَ الْحَفْيَاءِ إِلَى ثَنِيَّةِ الْوَدَاعِ، وَالَّتِي لَمْ تُضَمَّرْ مِنْ ثَنِيَّةِ الْوَدَاعِ إِلَى مَسْجِدِ بَنِي زُرَيْقٍ»

Commentary

In training the horses, they are given extra food for a period till they gain fat. Thereafter, their food is reduced and they are locked up in an enclosure where they sweat a lot and it dries at the same place. By this procedure its stamina improves, and it can run a long distance without exhaustion. Hafyâ' and Thaniiyyatul-Wadâ' are the names of two places; the distance between them is three miles. The distance between Thaniiyyatul-Wadâ' and the mosque of Bani Zuraiq is one mile.
