The Quick Ride of Abdullah ibn Umar

SUMMARY: Abdullah ibn Umar used to ride his horse quickly over a short distance.

Yahya related to me from Malik from Nafi that Abdullah ibn Umar used to spur on his mount in the middle of Muhassir over the distance of a stone's throw.
وَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عُمَرَ، كَانَ يُحَرِّكُ رَاحِلَتَهُ فِي بَطْنِ مُحَسِّرٍ قَدْرَ رَمْيَةٍ بِحَجَرٍ
