While the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was walking a man who had an ass came to him and said: Messenger of Allah, ride; and the man moved to the back of the animal. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: No, you have more right to ride in front on your animal than me unless you grant that right to me. He said: I grant it to you. So he mounted.  

سَمِعْتُ أَبِي بُرَيْدَةَ يَقُولُ بَيْنَمَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَمْشِي جَاءَ رَجُلٌ وَمَعَهُ حِمَارٌ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ارْكَبْ وَتَأَخَّرَ الرَّجُلُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ لاَ أَنْتَ أَحَقُّ بِصَدْرِ دَابَّتِكَ مِنِّي إِلاَّ أَنْ تَجْعَلَهُ لِي قَالَ فَإِنِّي قَدْ جَعَلْتُهُ لَكَ فَرَكِبَ  

"I heard my father Buraidah saying: 'I was walking with the Prophet ﷺ when a man came to him with a donkey, so he said: "O Messenger of Allah! Ride" and the man moved toward the back. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "No, you have more right to the front of your beast, unless you allot it for me." He said: "I have allotted it for you.'" He said: 'So he rode.'"  

سَمِعْتُ أَبِي بُرَيْدَةَ يَقُولُ بَيْنَمَا النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يَمْشِي إِذْ جَاءَهُ رَجُلٌ وَمَعَهُ حِمَارٌ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ارْكَبْ وَتَأَخَّرَ الرَّجُلُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ لأَنْتَ أَحَقُّ بِصَدْرِ دَابَّتِكَ إِلاَّ أَنْ تَجْعَلَهُ لِي قَالَ قَدْ جَعَلْتُهُ لَكَ قَالَ فَرَكِبَ
