أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم سَابَقَ بَيْنَ الْخَيْلِ يُرْسِلُهَا مِنَ الْحَفْيَاءِ وَكَانَ أَمَدُهَا ثَنِيَّةَ الْوَدَاعِ وَسَابَقَ بَيْنَ الْخَيْلِ الَّتِي لَمْ تُضْمَرْ وَكَانَ أَمَدُهَا مِنَ الثَّنِيَّةِ إِلَى مَسْجِدِ بَنِي زُرَيْقٍ ‏.‏

Translation

Qutaybah ibn Sa'id reported to us: Al-Layth narrated to us, from Nafi', from Ibn 'Umar, that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) held a race between horses, sending them out from Al-Hafya', with their finish line at Thaniyyat al-Wada'. He also held a race for horses that had not been made lean, with the course running from Ath-Thaniyyah to the mosque of Banu Zurayq.
