While I was on my way, all of a sudden I saw a shepherd driving his sheep, I asked him whose servant he was. He replied that he was the servant of a man from Quraish, and then he mentioned his name and I recognized him. I asked, "Do your sheep have some milk?" He replied in the affirmative. I said, "Are you going to milk for me?" He replied in the affirmative. I ordered him and he tied the legs of one of the sheep. Then I told him to clean the udder (teats) of dust and to remove dust off his hands. He removed the dust off his hands by clapping his hands. He then milked a little milk. I put the milk for Messenger of Allah ﷺ in a pot and closed its mouth with a piece of cloth and poured water over it till it became cold. I took it to the Prophet ﷺ and said, "Drink, O Messenger of Allah ﷺ!" He drank it till I was pleased.  

البخاري:٢٤٣٩حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ أَخْبَرَنَا النَّضْرُ أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْرَائِيلُ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي الْبَرَاءُ

عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرٍ ؓ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ رَجَاءٍ حَدَّثَنَا إِسْرَائِيلُ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ عَنِ الْبَرَاءِ عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرٍ ؓ قَالَ انْطَلَقْتُ فَإِذَا أَنَا بِرَاعِي غَنَمٍ يَسُوقُ غَنَمَهُ فَقُلْتُ لِمَنْ أَنْتَ قَالَ لِرَجُلٍ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ فَسَمَّاهُ فَعَرَفْتُهُ فَقُلْتُ هَلْ فِي غَنَمِكَ مِنْ لَبَنٍ فَقَالَ نَعَمْ فَقُلْتُ هَلْ أَنْتَ حَالِبٌ لِي قَالَ نَعَمْ فَأَمَرْتُهُ فَاعْتَقَلَ شَاةً مِنْ غَنَمِهِ ثُمَّ أَمَرْتُهُ أَنْ يَنْفُضَ ضَرْعَهَا مِنَ الْغُبَارِ ثُمَّ أَمَرْتُهُ أَنْ يَنْفُضَ كَفَّيْهِ فَقَالَ هَكَذَا ضَرَبَ إِحْدَى كَفَّيْهِ بِالأُخْرَى فَحَلَبَ كُثْبَةً مِنْ لَبَنٍ وَقَدْ جَعَلْتُ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِدَاوَةً عَلَى فَمِهَا خِرْقَةٌ فَصَبَبْتُ عَلَى اللَّبَنِ حَتَّى بَرَدَ أَسْفَلُهُ فَانْتَهَيْتُ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقُلْتُ اشْرَبْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فَشَرِبَ حَتَّى رَضِيتُ

Abu Bakr bought a (camel's) saddle from ʿAzib, and I carried it for him. ʿAzib (i.e. my father) asked Abu Bakr regarding the journey of the migration of Messenger of Allah ﷺ. Abu Bakr said, "Close observers were appointed by our enemies to watch us. So we went out at night and travelled throughout the night and the following day till it was noon, then we perceived a rock and went towards it, and there was some shade under it. I spread a cloak I had with me for Messenger of Allah ﷺ and then the Prophet ﷺ layed on it. I went out to guard him and all of a sudden I saw a shepherd coming with his sheep looking for the same, the shade of the rock as we did, I asked him, 'O boy, to whom do you belong?' He replied, 'I belong to so-and-so.' I asked him, 'Is there some milk in your sheep?' He replied in the affirmative. I asked him, 'Will you milk?' He replied in the affirmative. Then he got hold of one of his sheep. I said to him, 'Remove the dust from its udder.' Then he milked a little milk. I had a water-skin with me which was tied with a piece of cloth. I had prepared the water-skin for Messenger of Allah ﷺ . So I poured some water over the milk (container) till its bottom became cold. Then I brought the milk to the Prophet and said, 'Drink, O Messenger of Allah ﷺ.' Messenger of Allah ﷺ drank till I became pleased. Then we departed and the pursuers were following us."

ذِكْرُ قَوْلِ الْمُصْطَفَى ﷺ لِأَبِي بَكْرٍ ؓ فِي هِجْرَتِهِ: «لَا تَحْزَنْ إِنَّ اللَّهَ مَعَنَا»

[Machine] I heard Al-Bara' saying, Abu Bakr bought a camel from a bachelor for thirteen dirhams. Abu Bakr said to Al-Bara', "Take it to my family." The bachelor said to him, "Before you leave, tell me how you and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ managed when you both left Mecca and the pagans were looking for you." Abu Bakr said, "We left Mecca and hid in a cave, spending the night until we appeared during the day. We took shelter under a rock until midday when the shade disappeared. I leveled the ground for the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and made a makeshift bed for him. Then I told him, 'Lie down, O Messenger of Allah,' and he lay down. I went out to see if anyone was searching for us. I saw a shepherd driving his sheep towards the rock, seeking shade just like we wanted. So, I asked him, 'Who do you belong to, O boy?' He replied, 'To so-and-so, a man from Quraysh.' I recognized him and asked, 'Do your sheep produce milk?' He answered, 'Yes.' I then asked, 'Are you able to milk the sheep for me?' He answered, 'Yes.' I instructed him to take a sheep from his flock and remove the dust from it. Then, I told him to rub his hands together and he did so. He struck one hand against the other and began milking the sheep into a container. I had with me a piece of cloth which I used to cover the mouth of the container until it cooled down."
