1544 صحيح حديث ابي هريرة رضي الله عنه، قال: صلى رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم، صلاة الصبح ثم اقبل على الناس، فقال: بينا رجل يسوق بقرة إذ ركبها فضربها فقالت: إنا لم نخلق لهذا؛ إنما خلقنا للحرث فقال الناس: سبحان الله بقرة تكلم فقال: فإني اومن بهذا، انا وابو بكر وعمر وما هما ثم وبينما رجل في غنمه إذ عدا الذئب فذهب منها بشاة، فطلب حتى كانه استنقذها منه، فقال له الذئب: هذا، استنقذتها مني، فمن لها يوم السبع، يوم لا راعي لها غيري فقال الناس: سبحان الله ذئب يتكلم قال: فإني اومن بهذا انا وابو بكر وعمر وما هما ثم
Hazrat Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) performed the morning prayer, then turned towards the people and said: A man (from the Children of Israel) was driving his cow, when he mounted it and struck it. The cow (by Allah’s power) said: We animals have not been created for riding. Our creation is for plowing the fields. The people said: Glory be to Allah! A cow speaks? Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: I believe in this, and so do Abu Bakr and Umar. Even though both of them were not present there. In the same way, a man was grazing his sheep when a wolf came and carried off a sheep from the flock. The shepherd ran and rescued the sheep from the wolf. Upon this, the wolf (by Allah’s power) said: Today you have rescued it from me, but on the day of the beasts (near the Day of Judgment), who will protect it from me, when there will be no shepherd for it except me? The people said: Glory be to Allah! A wolf speaks? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: I believe in this, and so do Abu Bakr and Umar (may Allah be pleased with them). Even though both of them were not present there at that time.
