It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: A man came to the service of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him). He requested a mount from you. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "I will mount you on the child of a she-camel." He said: O Messenger of Allah! What will I do with the child of a she-camel? Upon this, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "And do not camels only give birth to she-camels?"
