Lesson : as mentioned in Surah At-Taubah Ayat 42 // Al-Bukhari Hadith # 4128



English Translation of Hadith
Hazrat Abu Burdah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: Abu Musa Al-Ashari (May Allah be pleased with him) said: "Six of us accompanied Messenger of Allah [SAWW](PBUH) in an expedition. We had one camel with us; we rode it in turn. Our feet got injured and my nails also fell out. We wrapped up our feet in rags; and because of this the campaign came to be known as Dhat-ur-Riqa` (the Campaign of Rags).'' Abu Burdah (May Allah be pleased with him) says: Abu Musa reported this Hadith but regretted having done so. He said, "Would that I had not mentioned it!'' He said so because he disliked to disclose anything concerning his deeds.
[Al-Bukhari Hadith # 4128].
Lesson : as mentioned above in Surah At-Taubah Ayat 42. "March forth, whether you are light (being healthy, young and wealthy) or heavy (being ill, old and poor)", This Hadith also throws light on the ascetic and insightful life of the Companions and their submission to the Divine will. Moreover, we are told that it is advisable not to disclose virtuous deeds in order to avoid committing the sin of showing off.
