حَدَّثَنَا قَبِيصَةُ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ ـ رضى الله عنهما ـ قَالَ أَجْرَى النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم مَا ضُمِّرَ مِنَ الْخَيْلِ مِنَ الْحَفْيَاءِ إِلَى ثَنِيَّةِ الْوَدَاعِ، وَأَجْرَى مَا لَمْ يُضَمَّرْ مِنَ 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 ثَنِيَّةِ إِلَى مَسْجِدِ بَنِي زُرَيْقٍ مِيلٌ.
Abdullah bin Umar reported that the Prophet ﷺ held a race for the horses that had been trained by withholding feed, from al-Hafya to Thaniyyat al-Wadaʿ, and for the untrained horses from Thaniyyat al-Wadaʿ to the mosque of Banu Zurayq. Ibn Umar said: “I was among those who raced.” Sufyan said: “The distance between al-Hafya and Thaniyyat al-Wadaʿ is five or six miles, and from the pass to the mosque of Banu Zurayq is one mile.”
Translation notes
The technical training term mudammara is rendered as horses conditioned by restricted feeding.
