English narration
Narrated by عبيد الله بن عمر العدوي
The Prophet (ﷺ) arranged for a horse race amongst the horses that had been made lean to take place between Al-Hafya'' and Thaniyat Al-Wada` (i.e. names of two places) and the horses which had not been mad.? lean from Ath-Thaniyat to the mosque of Bani Zuraiq. I was also amongst those who took part in that horse race. Sufyan, a sub-narrator, said, "The distance between Al-Hafya and Thaniya Al- Wada` is five or six miles; and between Thaniya and the mosque of Bani Zuraiq is one mile."

حَدَّثَنَا قَبِيصَةُ ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ ، عَنْ ابْنِ عُمَرَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا ، قَالَ : أَجْرَى النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ "
مَا ضُمِّرَ مِنَ الْخَيْلِ مِنْ الْحَفْيَاءِ إِلَى ثَنِيَّةِ الْوَدَاعِ ، وَأَجْرَى مَا لَمْ يُضَمَّرْ مِنْ الثَّنِيَّةِ إِلَى مَسْجِدِ بَنِي زُرَيْقٍ ، قَالَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ : وَكُنْتُ فِيمَنْ أَجْرَى ، قَالَ : عَبْدُ اللَّهِ ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنِي عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ ، قَالَ سُفْيَانُ : بَيْنَ الْحَفْيَاءِ إِلَى ثَنِيَّةِ الْوَدَاعِ خَمْسَةُ أَمْيَالٍ أَوْ سِتَّةٌ وَبَيْنَ ثَنِيَّةَ إِلَى مَسْجِدِ بَنِي زُرَيْقٍ مِيلٌ
