Translation

Ibn Abbas reported: The Prophet met a caravan at al-Rawha and asked, “Who are these people?” They replied, “Muslims.” They asked, “Who are you?” He replied, “The Messenger of Allah.” A woman lifted a child up to him and asked, “Does this child have a Hajj?” He said, “Yes, and you will have a reward.” Muslim transmitted it. The editor grades it authentic, cites Muslim 1336, and notes that al-Rawha is a place thirty-six miles from Medina.
