حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ أَخْبَرَنِي نَافِعٌ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ سَبَّقَ بَيْنَ الْخَيْلِ الْمُضَمَّرَةِ مِنْ الْحَفْيَاءِ إِلَى ثَنِيَّةِ الْوَدَاعِ وَمَا لَمْ يُضَمَّرْ مِنْهَا مِنْ ثَنِيَّةِ الْوَدَاعِ إِلَى مَسْجِدِ بَنِي زُرَيْقٍ
مسند امام احمد بن حنبل · Hadith 5181
It was narrated from Ibn 'Umar that the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) held a race for horses that had been specially prepared for that, from al-Hayfa’ to Thaniyyat aI-Wada a', and he held a race for horses that had not been specially prepared from Thaniyyat al-wadaa' to the mossque of Banu Zurayq.
