حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاوِيَةُ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو إِسْحَاقَ، عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ عُقْبَةَ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ ـ رضى الله عنهما ـ قَالَ سَابَقَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم بَيْنَ الْخَيْلِ الَّتِي قَدْ أُضْمِرَتْ فَأَرْسَلَهَا مِنَ الْحَفْيَاءِ، وَكَانَ أَمَدُهَا ثَنِيَّةَ الْوَدَاعِ. فَقُلْتُ لِمُوسَى فَكَمْ كَانَ بَيْنَ ذَلِكَ قَالَ سِتَّةُ أَمْيَالٍ أَوْ سَبْعَةٌ. وَسَابَقَ بَيْنَ الْخَيْلِ الَّتِي لَمْ تُضَمَّرْ، فَأَرْسَلَهَا مِنْ ثَنِيَّةِ الْوَدَاعِ، وَكَانَ أَمَدُهَا مَسْجِدَ بَنِي زُرَيْقٍ، قُلْتُ فَكَمْ بَيْنَ ذَلِكَ قَالَ مِيلٌ أَوْ نَحْوُهُ. وَكَانَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ مِمَّنْ سَابَقَ فِيهَا.

English translation
Narrated Abu 'Is-haq from Musa bin `Uqba from Nafi` from Ibn `Umar who said: "Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) arranged a horse race amongst the horses that had been made lean, letting them start from Al-Hafya' and their limit (distance of running) was up to Thaniyat-al-Wada`. I asked Musa, 'What was the distance between the two places?' Musa replied, 'Six or seven miles. He arranged a race of the horses which had not been made lean sending them from Thaniyat-al-Wada`, and their limit was up to the mosque of Bani Zuraiq.' I asked, 'What was the distance between those two places?' He replied 'One mile or so.' Ibn `Umar was amongst those who participated in that horse race

ইবনু ‘উমার (রাঃ) হতে বর্ণিত যে, আল্লাহর রাসূল (সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম) প্রশিক্ষণপ্রাপ্ত ঘোড়ার দৌড় প্রতিযোগিতা করিয়েছেন। এই প্রতিযোগিতা হাফয়া থেকে শুরু হত এবং সানিয়্যাতুল বিদায় শেষ হত। (রাবী আবূ ইসহাক (রহ.) বলেন), আমি মূসা (রাঃ)-কে বললাম, এর দূরত্ব কী পরিমাণ হবে? তিনি বললেন, ছয় বা সাত মাইল। প্রশিক্ষণহীন ঘোড়ার প্রতিযোগিতা শুরু হতো সানিয়্যাতুল বিদা থেকে এবং শেষ হতো বানূ যুরাইকের মসজিদে। আমি বললাম, এর মধ্যে দূরত্ব কত? তিনি বললেন, এক মাইল বা তার তদ্রূপ। ইবনু ‘উমার (রাঃ) এতে প্রতিযোগীদের অন্তর্ভুক্ত ছিলেন। (৪২০) (আধুনিক প্রকাশনীঃ ২৬৫৯, ইসলামিক ফাউন্ডেশনঃ)
