Bismillaah:

Anas bin Malik رضي اللّه عنه relates:

" While I was going along with Allaah's Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم who was wearing a Najrani Burd (sheet) with a thick border, a Bedouin overtook the Prophet and pulled his Rida (sheet) forcibly. I looked at the side of the shoulder of the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم and noticed that the edge of the Rida had left a mark on it because of the violence of his pull. The Bedouin said, "O Muhammad! Order for me some of Allaah's property which you have." The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم turned towards him, smiled, and ordered that he be given something."

Takhreej:

{ Imam al Bukhari and Muslim in their Saheeh }

Shaykh Abdur Rahman al Arabi Commented:

The Unfamiliar Words of this Hadeeth:

A‘rabi: meaning Bedouins or the inhabitants of the desert among the Arabs. They are often of hardened hearts, harsh statements, and roughness in nature, unlike the exurbanites or the city dwellers.

Jabadhahu: is of the same meaning and measure of jadhabahu, i.e. he pulled him, dragged him, or drew him.

This Hadeeth highlights the pure nature of the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم that is manifested in his patience for the abusiveness of the fools. This situation sets forth an aspect of his forbearance and patience for being harmed in himself and his property. It also sets forth the Prophet's patience with those that he would like to invite to Islam. The rulers should emulate him in forgiving, overlooking, and repelling the evil deed with that which is fairest. Have you not seen that he smiled when the Bedouin pulled him, and ordered that he be given something without reproaching
