[2296] 27 - (988) Jâbir bin ‘Abdullâh Al-Ansârî said: “I heard the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ say: ‘There is no owner of camels who does not do what he is obliged to concerning them, but they will come on the Day of Resurrection, as great in number as they ever were, and he will sit for them on a vast plain, and they will trample him with their feet and hooves. There is no owner of cattle who does not do what he is obliged to concerning them, but they will come on the Day of Resurrection, as great in number as they ever were, and he will sit for them on a vast plain, and they will gore him with their horns and trample him with their feet. There is no owner of sheep who does not do what he is obliged to concerning them, but they will come on the Day of Resurrection, as great in number as they ever were, and he will sit for them on a vast plain, and they will gore him with their horns and trample them with their feet, and there will not be among them any that is hornless or that has broken horns. There is no owner of treasure who does not do what he is obliged to concerning it, but his treasure will come on the Day of Resurrection like a bald-headed Shujâ'a[1] pursuing him with its mouth open. When it approaches him he will flee from it, and it will be called out to him, 'Take your wealth that you used to hide, for I have no need of it.' When he realizes that there is no escape from it, he will put his hand in its mouth and it will bite it like a male camel.” Abû Az-Zubair (one of the narrators) said: “I heard ‘Ubaid bin ‘Umail say this, then we asked Jâbir bin ‘Abdullâh about that and he said the same as ‘Ubaid bin ‘Umail had said.” And Abû Az-Zubair said: I heard ‘Ubaid bin ‘Umail say: “A man said: ‘O Messenger of Allâh, what are the duties regarding camels?’ He said: ‘Milking them when they are brought to water, lending their buckets, lending the stallion for mating, lending them to other (to benefit from their milk and hair) and providing them as mounts (for Jihâd) for the cause of Allâh.”
