Narrated Muslim from Abu `Aqil from Abu Al-Mutawakkil An-Naji:I called on Jabir bin `Abdullah Al-Ansari and said to him, "Relate to me what you have heard from Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) ." He said, "I accompanied him on one of the journeys." (Abu `Aqil said, "I do not know whether that journey was for the purpose of Jihad or `Umra.") "When we were returning," Jabir continued, "the Prophet (ﷺ) said, 'Whoever wants to return earlier to his family, should hurry up.' We set off and I was on a black red tainted camel having no defect, and the people were behind me. While I was in that state the camel stopped suddenly (because of exhaustion). On that the Prophet (ﷺ) said to me, 'O Jabir, wait!' Then he hit it once with his lash and it started moving on a fast pace. He then said, 'Will you sell the camel?' I replied in the affirmative when we reached Medina, and the Prophet (ﷺ) went to the Mosque along with his companions. I, too, went to him after tying the camel on the pavement at the Mosque gate. Then I said to him, 'This is your camel.' He came out and started examining the camel and saying, 'The camel is ours.' Then the Prophet (ﷺ) sent some Awaq (i.e. an amount) of gold saying, 'Give it to Jabir.' Then he asked, 'Have you taken the full price (of the camel)?' I replied in the affirmative. He said, 'Both the price and the camel are for you.' ''

Sahih
It is related that Abu'l-Mutawakkil an-Naji said, "I went to Jabir ibn 'Abdullah al-Ansari and said to him, "Relate to me what you heard from the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace.' He said, 'I travelled with him on one of his journeys. (Abu 'Aqil said, "I do not know whether it was an expedition or 'umra.") When we were coming back, the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "Whoever wants to hurry to his family, should hurry."' Jabir said, 'We advanced and I was on a dun camel of mine with no blemish. The people were behind me and while I was like that, it stopped cold with me. The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said to me, "Jabir, stay put." He struck it a blow with his whip and the camel leapt from its place. He said, "Will you sell the camel?" I replied, "Yes." When we reached Madina and the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, entered the mosque with the groups of his Companions, I went to him and hobbled the camel in a corner of the courtyard. I said to him, "This is your camel." He went out and began to explain the camel, saying, 'The camel is ours.' The Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, sent some awqiyyas of gold and said, "Give it to Jabir." Then he said, "Have you received the price in full?" I said, "Yes." He said, "Both the price and the camel are yours."'"
