[Machine] She was with the Prophet ﷺ on a trip while she was a servant girl. He said to his companions, "Go ahead," so they went ahead. Then he said, "Come forward, let me race you." So, I raced him and I outran him on my feet. When it was later, I went out with him on a trip, and he said to his companions, "Go ahead," so they went ahead. Then he said, "Come forward, let me race you." And I forgot the previous incident, and I had meat with me, so I said, "How can I race you, O Messenger of Allah, while I am in this state?" He said, "You will do it." So, I raced him and he outran me. Then he said, "This is for that previous race."

ahmad:26277ʿUmar Abū Ḥafṣ al-Muʿayṭī > Hishām from his father > ʿĀʾishah

[Machine] I went out with the Prophet ﷺ on one of his journeys while I was a slave girl. I did not bring any meat or drink, so he said to the people, "Move forward," and they moved forward. Then he said to me, "Come closer so that I can race you." So I raced him and I beat him. He remained silent until I carried the meat and drink and I forgot that I had gone out with him on one of his journeys. He then said to the people, "Move forward," and they moved forward. Then he said to me, "Come closer so that I can race you." So I raced him again, but this time he beat me. He started laughing and saying, "This makes up for that."
