Musnad Ahmad 295 (Book 2, Hadith 203) #33978
Moving On Before Sunrise

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) moved on before sunrise, unlike the people of Jahiliyyah who used to wait until they saw the sun shining on Thabeer mountain.

It was narrated that 'Amr bin Maimoon said: l heard 'Umar bin al Khattab say: The people of Jahiliyyah used not to move on from Jam' until they saw the sun shining on (the mountain of) Thabeer, and they would say: Shine Thabeer, then we will move on swiftly. So the Messenger of Allah moved on before the sun rose.
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، أَنْبَأَنَا الثَّوْرِيُّ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ مَيْمُونٍ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ، رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ يَقُولُ كَانَ أَهْلُ الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ لَا يُفِيضُونَ مِنْ جَمْعٍ حَتَّى يَرَوْا الشَّمْسَ عَلَى ثَبِيرٍ وَكَانُوا يَقُولُونَ أَشْرِقْ ثَبِيرُ كَيْمَا نُغِيرُ فَأَفَاضَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ قَبْلَ طُلُوعِ الشَّمْسِ‏.‏

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about how the Prophet Muhammad's actions were different from those of the people of Jahiliyyah. The people of Jahiliyyah used to wait until they saw the sun shining on Thabeer mountain before moving on, but the Prophet Muhammad moved on before sunrise. This teaches us that we should not be afraid to take action and move forward even if it is not what everyone else is doing. We should trust in Allah and have faith that He will guide us in our decisions and actions.
