📌He would bring it out on the two ‘ eid days and would pray next to it, and when he was on a journey, he would place it in the direction of the Qiblah and pray.[^26] In al-Makarim: The Holy Prophet (S) said: Carrying a staff is a sign of a believer and a sunnah of the prophets.[^27] Note: This has also been narrated in ‘Awarif al-Ma’arif.[^28] In ‘Awarif al-Ma’arif: Leaning on a staff is from the akhlaq of the prophets.
📌^29 Note: This has also been narrated in al-Faqih and Mahajjat al-Bayd’a.’[^30] Also: Ka’b ibn Malik narrated that the Holy Prophet (S) would not return from a journey except in the daytime, at forenoon.[^31] In Mahajjat al-Bayd’a’: He (S) would not dismount until it became too hot to travel during the day, and this is from the sunnah.
Most of his traveling was done by night.[^32] Also: When he slept while on a journey in the beginning of the night, he would sleep (resting his head) on his arm and if he slept late at night, he would raise his arm and sleep placing his head on his palm.[^33] In ‘Awarif al-Ma’arif: The sunnah is to depart for the journey early in the morning and to start (the journey) on Thursday.[^34] In ‘Awarif al-Ma’arif: Taking the water-bag is also from the sunnah .[^35] Also: It has been narrated that when the Noble Prophet (S) would return home from a battle or from the Hajj, (on his way) he would recite the takbir (Allahu Akbar) thrice on every elevation on the land and then say: لاَ إِلٌهَ إِلاَّ اللٌّهُ وَحْدَهُ لاَ شَرِيكَ لَهُ.
لَهُ الْمُلْكُ وَ لَهُ الْحَمْدُ وَ هُوَ عَلـى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ. آئِبُونَ عَابِدُونَ سَاجِدُونَ رَبَّنَا حَامِدُونَ صَدَقَ اللٌّهُ وَعْدَهُ وَ نَصَرَ عَبْدَهُ وَ هَزَمَ الأَحْزَابَ وَحْدَهُ. “There is no god but Allah. He is one - without any partner. His is the kingdom and for Him is all praise and He has power over all things. (We come to Him) returning, worshipping, prostrating and praising our Lord.
Allah has made true His promise and helped His servant and vanquished the (enemy) factions.
