وَحَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، عَنْ مِسْعَرٍ، عَنْ بُكَيْرِ بْنِ الأَخْنَسِ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ مُرَّ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم بِبَدَنَةٍ أَوْ هَدِيَّةٍ فَقَالَ " ارْكَبْهَا " . قَالَ إِنَّهَا بَدَنَةٌ أَوْ هَدِيَّةٌ . فَقَالَ " وَإِنْ " .

Anas reported:
Someone happened to pass by Allah's Apostle (ﷺ) with a sacrificial camel, or a sacrificial animal, whereupon he said: Ride on it. He said: It is a sacrificial camel, or animal, whereupon he said: (Ride) even if (it is a sacrificial camel).
