Sayyiduna Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: I used to herd the goats of 'Uqbah bin Abi Mu'ayt. One day, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) passed by me with Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) while escaping from the polytheists, and he said: "O boy! Do you have any milk?" I replied: I am entrusted with them, so I cannot give you any. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Is there any goat among them that a male has not mounted?" I replied: Yes! And I brought such a goat to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) passed his hand over its udder and prayed, so milk descended into it. Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) brought a hollow stone from inside, and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) milked it into that, drank himself, gave Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) to drink, and I also drank. Then, addressing the udder, he said: "Shrink back," so the udder shrank back again. After a little while, I came to the service of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! Teach me this matter as well. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) passed his hand over my head and prayed for me: "May Allah send His mercy upon you, you are an intelligent boy." I memorized seventy surahs from the blessed mouth of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) which no one can dispute with me about.
