وحَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ أَيُّوبَ، وَقُتَيْبَةُ، وَابْنُ حُجْرٍ، قَالُوا: حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ وَهُوَ ابْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، عَنْ عَمْرٍو وَهُوَ ابْنُ أَبِي عَمْرٍو، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الْأَعْرَجِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَدْرَكَ شَيْخًا يَمْشِي بَيْنَ ابْنَيْهِ، يَتَوَكَّأُ عَلَيْهِمَا، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «مَا شَأْنُ هَذَا؟» قَالَ ابْنَاهُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، كَانَ عَلَيْهِ نَذْرٌ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «ارْكَبْ أَيُّهَا الشَّيْخُ، فَإِنَّ اللهَ غَنِيٌّ عَنْكَ، وَعَنْ نَذْرِكَ»، وَاللَّفْظُ لِقُتَيْبَةَ، وَابْنِ حُجْرٍ.

Allah's Apostle ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) found an old man walking between his two sons supported by them, whereupon Allah's Apostle ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) said: What is the matter with him? He (the narrator) said: Allah's Messenger, they are his sons and there is upon him the (fulfilment) of the vow, whereupon Allah's Apostle ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) said: Ride, old man, for Allah is not in need of you and your vow.
