حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ السَّائِبِ عَنْ كَثِيرِ بْنِ جُمْهَانَ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ إِنْ أَسْعَى فَقَدْ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَسْعَى وَإِنْ أَمْشِي فَقَدْ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَمْشِي وَأَنَا شَيْخٌ كَبِيرٌ
مسند امام احمد بن حنبل · Hadith 5257
It was narrated that Ibn 'Umar said: If I walk rapidly saw the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) walking rapidly, and if I walk at a normal pace, I saw the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) walking at a normal pace, and I am an old man.
