1. During a journey, the Prophet (s.a.w.a.) noticed that a camel was very tired. He put a little quantity of his saliva into the mouth of the animal. The camel became very active and trotted on faster than the other camels in the caravan.
2. During another journey, a camel of one of the companions of the Prophet (s.a.w.a.) was lost. The owner of the animal asked the Prophet (a.s) that if he was the Messenger of Allah, he should inform about the whereabouts of the camel. The Prophet (s.a.w.a.) said that the camel was at such and such a place because its nose-string was entangled on the branch of a tree. The person went to the place and retrieved his camel.
3. One camel complained to the Prophet (s.a.w.a.) that it was getting very bad treatment from its master. The Prophet (s.a.w.a.) asked the owner of the camel to sell it away to someone else. The camel again protested to the Prophet (a.s) that he should be sold to a good person that it received better treatment. Then the Prophet (s.a.w.a.) asked Hazrat Ali (a.s.) to buy the camel. This camel was in the use of Hazrat Ali (a.s.) during the Battle of Siffin.
4. One day the Prophet (s.a.w.a.) was sitting in the Mosque when a camel came running towards him. The camel put its head in the lap of the Prophet (s.a.w.a.) and started wailing. The Prophet (s.a.w.a.) told to his companions that the animal was complaining that its master wanted to butcher it. One of the companions affirmed that the camel belonged to a person who intended cutting it for the feast in connection with the wedding ( Walima ) of his son. The Prophet (s.a.w.a.) called the person and recommended to him to spare the life of the camel.
