حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيل، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ ثَابِتٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ أَنَسٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ كَانَتِ الْعَضْبَاءُ لَا تُسْبَقُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَجَاءَ أَعْرَابِيٌّ عَلَى قَعُودٍ لَهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَسَابَقَهَا فَسَبَقَهَا الْأَعْرَابِيُّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَكَأَنَّ ذَلِكَ شَقَّ عَلَى أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَقٌّ عَلَى اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ أَنْ لَا يَرْفَعَ شَيْئًا مِنَ الدُّنْيَا إِلَّا وَضَعَهُ .

The she-camel of the Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم called Al-Adba had not been outstripped by another, but an Arabi (a nomadic Arab) came on a young riding camel of his and it outstripped it. That distressed the companions of the Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم, but he said: It is Allah’s right that nothing should become exalted in the world but he lowers it.
