Driving Carefully with Glass Vessels

SUMMARY: The Prophet advised Anjashah, his slave, to drive the camels slowly while transporting glass vessels with ladies.

Narrated Anas: Once Um Sulaim was (with the women who were) in charge of the luggage on a journey, and Anjashah, the slave of the Prophet, was driving their camels (very fast). The Prophet said, "O anjash! Drive slowly (the camels) with the glass vessels (ie, ladies).
حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، حَدَّثَنَا وُهَيْبٌ، حَدَّثَنَا أَيُّوبُ، عَنْ أَبِي قِلاَبَةَ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ قَالَ كَانَتْ أُمُّ سُلَيْمٍ فِي الثَّقَلِ وَأَنْجَشَةُ غُلاَمُ النَّبِيِّ يَسُوقُ بِهِنَّ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ‏ "‏ يَا أَنْجَشَ، رُوَيْدَكَ، سَوْقَكَ بِالْقَوَارِيرِ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the importance of driving carefully and cautiously. It was narrated by Anas that once Um Sulaim was in charge of the luggage on a journey and Anjashah, the slave of the Prophet, was driving their camels very fast. The Prophet then said to him “O anjash! Drive slowly with the glass vessels” meaning that he should be careful when transporting glass vessels as they are fragile and can easily break if driven too fast. This hadith teaches us to be mindful when we are doing something that could potentially cause harm or damage to others or ourselves. We should always take our time and think before we act so that we can avoid any unnecessary accidents or mishaps from occurring.
