Sayyidah Asma' bint Abi Bakr (may Allah be pleased with them both) relates: We set out with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) for Hajj, and the provisions of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and of Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) were on a single camel. We stopped at al-Arj, and that camel was with Abu Bakr's servant. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) sat on one side and Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) on the other side, and I too sat beside my father, waiting for the servant and the baggage. Then the servant appeared, coming on foot, and the camel was not with him. Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) asked: Where is your camel? He said: I lost it last night. On hearing this, Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) began to beat him, saying: There was only one camel, and you lost even that? Seeing this, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) began to smile and said: "Look at this man in ihram, what he is doing."
