[Machine] I heard my father talking, and he lived during the time of ignorance and Islam. He said, "I set up traps for my father's camels, and a deer fell into one of the traps. The rope turned, and we followed its trail until we found a man who had taken it. We disputed about it and went to the Prophet ﷺ, and we found him sitting under a tree, seeking shade with a palm leaf. He judged between us and divided it into two halves. I said, 'O Messenger of Allah, these are my traps in his leg.' He said, 'He is the one who took it.' I said, 'O Messenger of Allah, we are often on the water and the camels come to us, thirsty, so we give them water. Is there any reward for us in that?' He said, 'Yes, there is reward in every creature with a liver.' I said, 'O Messenger of Allah, sometimes we encounter long-legged camels while we are hungry.' He said, 'Say, O owner of the camels, O owner of the camels, three times, and if it comes, then good, otherwise, untie its leg and milk it and drink, and tie its leg and leave some milk for the calf's sake.'"
