Jabir bin 'Abdullah (RA) reported: I went out with Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) on an expedition, but my camel delayed me. Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) came to me and said to me: Jabir, I said: Yes. Allah's Messenger, (here I am at your beck and call) He said: What is the matter with you? I said: My camel has delayed me and is tired, so I have lagged behind. He (the Holy Prophet) got down and goaded it with a crooked stick and then said: Mount it. So I mounted and (to my great surprise) I saw it (moving so quickly that) I had to restrain it from going ahead of Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) . He (the Holy Prophet) (in the course of journey said to me): Have you married? I said: Yes. He (again) said: Is it with a virgin or one previously married? I said. With one previously married, whereupon he (again) said: Why not with a young girl with whom you could sport and she could have sported with you? I said: I have sisters, so I preferred to marry a woman who could keep them together (as one family). One who could comb them and look after them. He said: You are about to go (to your house), and there you have the enjoyment (of the wife's company). He again said: Do you want to sell your camel? I said: Yes. So he bought it from me for one u'qiya (of silver), Then Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) arrived (at Madinah) and I arrived in the evening. I went to the mosque and found him at the door of the mosque, and said: Is it now that you have arrived? I said: Yes, He said: Leave your camel, and enter (the mosque) and offer two rak'ahs. So I entered and offered two rak'ahs of prayer, and then returned. He (the Holy Prophet) then commanded Bilal (RA) to weigh out one 'uqiya (of silver) for me. Bilal (RA) weighed that out for me (lowering the scale of) balance. So I proceeded and as I turned my back he said: Call Jabir for me . So I was called back, and I said (to myself): He would return me the camel, and nothing was more displeasing to me than this (that after having received the price I should also get the camel). He said: Take your camel and keep its price with you, (also).

Jabir bin 'Abdullah (RA) reported: We were with Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) in a journey, and I was riding a camel meant for carrying water and it lagged behind all persons. Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) hit it or goaded it (I think) with something he had with him. And after it (it moved so quickly) that it went ahead of all persons and it struggled with me (to move faster than I permitted it) and I had to restrain it. Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) said: Do you sell it at such and such (price)? May Allah grant you pardon. I said: Allah's Apostle, it is yours. He (again) said: Do you sell it at such and such (price)? May Allah grant you pardon. ' I said: Allah's Apostle, it is yours. He said to me: Have you married after the death of your father? I said: Yes. He (again) said: With one previously married or a virgin? I said: With one previously married. He said: Why didn't you marry a virgin who might amuse you and you might amuse her, and she might sport with you and you might sport with her? Abu Nadra said: That was the common phrase which the Muslims spoke: "You do such and such (thing) and Allah may grant you pardon."

'Abdullah bin 'Amr (RA) reported Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) as saying: The whole world is a provision, and the best object of benefit of the world is the pious woman.
