صحیح مسلم · Hadith 5239
Al-Bara' reported: When Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) went forth from Mecca to Medina, Suraqa b. Malik b. Ju'shum pursued him. Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) invoked curse upon him, and his horse sank (in the desert). He (Suraqa) said: (Allah's Messenger), invoke blessings for me and I will do no harm to you. He (the Holy Prophet) then supplicated Allah. (At that time) he (the Holy Prophet) felt thirsty, and they happened to pass by a shepherd. Abu Bakr Siddiq said: I took hold of a bowl and milked some milk into it for Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) and gave it to him. He drank it and I was pleased.
