The Prophet ﷺ said, "While a man was riding a cow, it turned towards him and said, 'I have not been created for this purpose (i.e. carrying), I have been created for ploughing." The Prophet ﷺ added, "I, Abu Bakr and ʿUmar believe in the story." The Prophet ﷺ went on, "A wolf caught a sheep, and when the shepherd chased it, the wolf said, 'Who will be its guard on the day of wild beasts, when there will be no shepherd for it except me?' "After narrating it, the Prophet ﷺ said, "I, Abu Bakr and ʿUmar too believe it." Abu Salama (a sub-narrator) said, "Abu Bakr and ʿUmar were not present then."

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ بَيْنَمَا رَجُلٌ رَاكِبٌ عَلَى بَقَرَةٍ الْتَفَتَتْ إِلَيْهِ فَقَالَتْ لَمْ أُخْلَقْ لِهَذَا خُلِقْتُ لِلْحِرَاثَةِ قَالَ آمَنْتُ بِهِ أَنَا وَأَبُو بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرُ وَأَخَذَ الذِّئْبُ شَاةً فَتَبِعَهَا الرَّاعِي فَقَالَ الذِّئْبُ مَنْ لَهَا يَوْمَ السَّبُعِ يَوْمَ لاَ رَاعِيَ لَهَا غَيْرِي قَالَ آمَنْتُ بِهِ أَنَا وَأَبُو بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرُ قَالَ أَبُو سَلَمَةَ مَا هُمَا يَوْمَئِذٍ فِي الْقَوْمِ

Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Whilst a shepherd was amongst his sheep, a wolf attacked them and took away a sheep. The shepherd chased it and got that sheep freed from the wolf. The wolf turned towards the shepherd and said, 'Who will guard the sheep on the day of wild animals when it will have no shepherd except myself?" The people said, "Glorified be Allah." The Prophet ﷺ said, "But I believe in it and so do Abu Bakr and ʿUmar although Abu Bakr and ʿUmar were not present there (at the place of the event).

سَمِعْنَا أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ ؓ يَقُولُ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ بَيْنَمَا رَاعٍ فِي غَنَمِهِ عَدَا الذِّئْبُ فَأَخَذَ مِنْهَا شَاةً فَطَلَبَهَا حَتَّى اسْتَنْقَذَهَا فَالْتَفَتَ إِلَيْهِ الذِّئْبُ فَقَالَ لَهُ مَنْ لَهَا يَوْمَ السَّبُعِ لَيْسَ لَهَا رَاعٍ غَيْرِي فَقَالَ النَّاسُ سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَإِنِّي أُومِنُ بِهِ وَأَبُو بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرُ وَمَا ثَمَّ أَبُو بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرُ

The Prophet ﷺ said, "While a man was riding a cow, it turned towards him and said, 'I have not been created for this purpose (i.e. carrying), I have been created for ploughing." The Prophet ﷺ added, "I, Abu Bakr and ʿUmar believe in the story." The Prophet ﷺ went on, "A wolf caught a sheep, and when the shepherd chased it, the wolf said, 'Who will be its guard on the day of wild beasts, when there will be no shepherd for it except me?' "After narrating it, the Prophet ﷺ said, "I, Abu Bakr and ʿUmar too believe it." Abu Salama (a sub-narrator) said, "Abu Bakr and ʿUmar were not present then." (Using translation from Bukhārī 2324)

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ بَيْنَمَا رَجُلٌ رَاكِبٌ عَلَى بَقَرَةٍ الْتَفَتَتْ إِلَيْهِ فَقَالَتْ إِنِّي لَمْ أُخْلَقْ لِهَذَا إِنَّمَا خُلِقْتُ لِلْحِرَاثَةِ قَالَ فَآمَنْتُ بِهِ أَنَا وَأَبُو بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرُ قَالَ وَأَخَذَ الذِّئْبُ شَاةً فَتَبِعَهَا الرَّاعِي فَقَالَ الذِّئْبُ مَنْ لَهَا يَوْمَ السَّبُعِ يَوْمَ لَا رَاعِيَ لَهَا غَيْرِي؟ قَالَ فَآمَنْتُ بِهِ أَنَا وَأَبُو بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرُ قَالَ أَبُو سَلَمَةَ وَمَا هُمَا يَوْمَئِذٍ فِي الْقَوْمِ

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "While a man was herding a cow and wanted to ride it, the cow turned to him and said, 'We were not created for this, we were only created for being ploughed.' Amazed, the man said, 'Glory be to Allah!' Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'I believe in it, and so do Abu Bakr and Umar.' After that, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'While a man was with his sheep and a wolf took one of his sheep, the shepherd followed the wolf and retrieved the sheep. Then he said, 'How will you be on the Day of Judgement, when there will be no one to protect you except me?' Again, the people around him said, 'Glory be to Allah!' And the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'I believe in it, and so do Abu Bakr and Umar.'"

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «بَيْنَمَا رَجُلٌ يَسُوقُ بَقَرَةً فَأَرَادَ أَنْ يَرْكَبَهَا فَالْتَفَتَتْ إِلَيْهِ فَقَالَتْ إِنَّا لَمْ نُخْلَقْ لِهَذَا إِنَّمَا خُلِقْنَا لِيُحْرَثَ عَلَيْنَا فَقَالَ مَنْ حَوْلَهُ سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ فَقَالَ ﷺ «آمَنْتُ بِهِ أَنَا وَأَبُو بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرُ» وَمَا هُمَا ثَمَّ قَالَ «وَبَيْنَمَا رَجُلٌ فِي غَنَمٍ لَهُ فَأَخَذَ الذِّئْبُ الشَّاةَ فَتَبِعَهُ الرَّاعِي فَلَفَظَهَا ثُمَّ قَالَ كَيْفَ لَكَ بِيَوْمِ السِّبَاعِ حَيْثُ لَا يَكُونُ لَهَا رَاعٍ غَيْرِي» فَقَالَ مَنْ حَوْلَهُ سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ فَقَالَ ﷺ » آمَنْتُ بِهِ أَنَا وَأَبُو بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرُ « وَمَا هُمَا ثَمَّ

اللَّهُ عَلَيه وَسَلَّم قال بينما رجل راكب على بقرة إذ التفتت فقالت إني لم أخلق لهذا إنما خلقت للحراثة فقال آمنت به أنا وَأبُو بكر وعمر قال وأخذ الذئب شاة فتبعه الراعي فقال الذئب من لها يوم السبع يوم لا راعي لها غيري ثُمَّ قال آمنت به أنا وَأبُو بكر وعمر قال أَبُو سلمة وما هما يومئذ في القوم

"بَينَمَا رجُلٌ راكِبٌ عَلَى بَقَرَةٍ التَفتَت إِلَيهِ , فقَالتْ: لَمْ أُخلَق لهَذا، خُلِقْتُ لِلحِرَاثَةِ فَقَال النَّبيُّ ﷺ آمَنْتُ بهِ أنَا, وَأَبُو بَكر، وَعُمَرُ".
