Jami at-Tirmidhi 1991 (Book 27, Hadith 97) #27624
Humility and Respect for Others

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) taught us to be humble and not to underestimate the capabilities of others.

Anas narrated: "A man sought a mount from the Messenger of Allah who said: 'Indeed, I will let you ride on a she-camel's child'. So he said: 'O Messenger of Allah! What can ashe-camel's child do?' So the Messenger of Allah said: 'Are camels borne from other than she-camels?'"
حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْوَاسِطِيُّ، عَنْ حُمَيْدٍ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، أَنَّ رَجُلاً، اسْتَحْمَلَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فَقَالَ ‏"‏ إِنِّي حَامِلُكَ عَلَى وَلَدِ النَّاقَةِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مَا أَصْنَعُ بِوَلَدِ النَّاقَةِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ‏"‏ وَهَلْ تَلِدُ الإِبِلَ إِلاَّ النُّوقُ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ غَرِيبٌ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the importance of humility and respect for others. It was narrated by Anas ibn Malik, who reported that a man asked the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) for a mount, but instead of giving him an animal, he said he would give him a she-camel's child. When the man asked what it could do, the Prophet replied that camels are only born from she-camels. This teaches us that we should never underestimate anyone or anything because even something small can have great potential. We should always show humility and respect towards everyone regardless of their size or status in society.
