Riyad as-Salihin 970 (Book 7, Hadith 15) #37459
Sharing the Burden of Expeditions

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) encouraged people to help those who had no property or family by taking them along on expeditions and sharing the ride.

Jabir (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: When the Messenger of Allah made up his mind to go in an expedition, he would say to us, "O Muhajirin and the Ansar! There are among you such people who have no property and no kinsfolk. Let everyone of you take along with him two or three men. None of us had a spare animal we took rides by turn". So I took two or three men with me and I rode my camel by turn equally with them. Abu Dawud.
وعن جابر رضي الله عنه، عن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم ، أنه أراد أن يغزو، فقال‏:‏ يا معشر المهاجرين والأنصار‏!‏ إن من إخوانكم قوماً، ليس لهم مال، ولا عشيرة، فليضم أحدكم إليه الرجلين، أو الثلاثة، فما لأحدنا من ظهر يحمله إلا كعقبة، يعني أحدهم‏.‏ قال‏:‏ فضممت إلي اثنين أو ثلاثة مالي إلا عقبة كعقبة أحدهم من جملي‏.‏ ‏(‏‏(‏رواه أبو داود‏)‏‏)‏

EXPLANATIONS:
The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) was a great example of generosity and kindness. He encouraged his followers to help those in need, even if it meant sacrificing their own comfort. In this hadith, he asked people to take two or three men with them on expeditions who did not have any property or family. This showed that everyone should look out for each other and share the burden of difficult tasks together. It also teaches us that we should always think about how we can help others, even if it means making some sacrifices ourselves.
