حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، قَالَ‏:‏ حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ، عَنْ حُمَيْدٍ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، أَنَّ رَجُلا اسْتَحْمَلَ رَسُولَ اللهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم، فَقَالَ‏:‏ إِنِّي حَامِلُكَ عَلَى وَلَدِ نَاقَةٍ، فَقَالَ‏:‏ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، مَا أَصْنَعُ بِوَلَدِ النَّاقَةِ‏؟‏ فَقَالَ صلى الله عليه وسلم‏:‏ وَهَلْ تَلِدُ الإِبِلَ إِلا النُّوقُ‏؟‏
Anas ibn Malik radiyallahu anhu relates that a person requested Rasoolullah sallallahu alaihe wasallam that he be given a conveyance. Rasoolullah sallallahu alaihe wasallam replied, The baby of a camel shall be given to you.

The person said, What shall I do with the baby of a camel O Messenger of Allah? (I want one for a conveyance). Rasoolullah sallallahu alaihe wasallam replied, Every camel is the baby of a camel
