Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates this statement of the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him): "When you travel through lush areas, give the camels their due (i.e., allow them to graze). When you travel through barren places, travel quickly, and when you camp at night, avoid camping on the road, for it is the dwelling place of the creatures of the earth."
