Sahih Muslim 1293a (Book 15, Hadith 330) #10265
The Prophet's Care for Weak Ones

SUMMARY: The Prophet (ﷺ) sent Ibn 'Abbas ahead of the caravan with the luggage or weak ones during the night.

Ibn 'Abbas reported: Allah's Messenger sent me from Muzdalifa ahead (of the caravan) along with the luggage or with the weak ones during (the latter part of the) night.
حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ يَحْيَى، وَقُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، جَمِيعًا عَنْ حَمَّادٍ، - قَالَ يَحْيَى أَخْبَرَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ، - عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي يَزِيدَ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ، يَقُولُ بَعَثَنِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ فِي الثَّقَلِ - أَوْ قَالَ فِي الضَّعَفَةِ - مِنْ جَمْعٍ بِلَيْلٍ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith speaks to the care and compassion that Prophet Muhammad ﷺ had for those who were weaker than him. He sent Ibn 'Abbas ahead of the caravan with either luggage or weak ones during a night journey from Muzdalifa. This shows us that he was always looking out for those who needed help and protection. He was also willing to put himself in danger in order to protect others and ensure their safety. This is an example of how we should all strive to be compassionate towards others and look out for those who are weaker than us. We should also be willing to put ourselves in danger if it means protecting someone else from harm.
