Sahih Muslim 715q (Book 22, Hadith 141) #11214
Praying for Others in Times of Need

SUMMARY: The Prophet (PBUH) was on a journey with Jabir b. 'Abdullah and his camel lagged behind. The Prophet (PBUH) then pricked the camel and told him to ride in the name of Allah, while also praying for him and asking Allah to forgive him.

Jabir b. 'Abdullah (Allah be pleased with them) reported: We were with Allah's Messenger in a journey and my camel meant for carrying water lagged behind. The rest of the hadith is the same and it is mentioned also: Allah's Messenger pricked it and then said to me: Ride in the name of Allah. He constantly made addition (in prayers for me) and went on saying. May Allah forgive you!
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو كَامِلٍ الْجَحْدَرِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَاحِدِ بْنُ زِيَادٍ، حَدَّثَنَا الْجُرَيْرِيُّ، عَنْ أَبِي، نَضْرَةَ عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، قَالَ كُنَّا مَعَ النَّبِيِّ فِي سَفَرٍ فَتَخَلَّفَ نَاضِحِي ‏.‏ وَسَاقَ الْحَدِيثَ وَقَالَ فِيهِ فَنَخَسَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ لِي ‏"‏ ارْكَبْ بِاسْمِ اللَّهِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ وَزَادَ أَيْضًا قَالَ فَمَا زَالَ يَزِيدُنِي وَيَقُولُ ‏"‏ وَاللَّهُ يَغْفِرُ لَكَ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about how the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ showed kindness and compassion towards others, even when they were not expecting it. In this hadith, Jabir b. 'Abdullah's camel was lagging behind during a journey with the Prophet ﷺ, so he pricked it so that it could move faster and told Jabir to ride in the name of Allah. He also prayed for him and asked Allah to forgive him as well as making additional prayers for his forgiveness throughout their journey together. This shows us that we should always be kind towards others no matter what situation we are in or what they have done wrong; we should always strive to help them out if possible, pray for them, ask Allah's forgiveness on their behalf, and show them compassion whenever possible.
