English translation

[4960] (...) It was narrated from Abû Hurairah that the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: “If you are traveling in fertile land, then give the camels their share of the land, and if you are traveling in arid land, then hasten to cross it. And if you make a halt at the end of the night, avoid (camping in) the road, for it is the pathway of wild animals and the abode of the vermin of the night.”

Arabic text

(1926) - حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ يَعْنِي ابْنَ مُحَمَّدٍ، عَنْ سُهَيْلٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «إِذَا سَافَرْتُمْ فِي الْخِصْبِ، فَأَعْطُوا الْإِبِلَ حَظَّهَا مِنَ الْأَرْضِ، وَإِذَا سَافَرْتُمْ فِي السَّنَةِ، فَبَادِرُوا بِهَا نِقْيَهَا، وَإِذَا عَرَّسْتُمْ، فَاجْتَنِبُوا الطَّرِيقَ، فَإِنَّهَا طُرُقُ الدَّوَابِّ، وَمَأْوَى الْهَوَامِّ بِاللَّيْلِ»
