Sahih al-Bukhari Hadith 124 – Volume 4, Book 52

English

Volume 4, Book 52, Number 124:
Narrated Anas:
The Prophet had a she camel called Al Adba which could not be excelled in a race. (Humaid, a
sub-narrator said, "Or could hardly be excelled.") Once a bedouin came riding a camel below six
years of age which surpasses it (i.e. Al'Adba) in the race. The Muslims felt it so much that the Prophet
noticed their distress. He then said, "It is Allah's Law that He brings down whatever rises high in the
world."
