It was customary for the needy and poor people to go to the places where camels were brought to drink, to avail themselves of their milk. In this hadeeth, the Prophet ﷺ urged the camel owners not to deprive the poor and needy of their milk. He ﷺ said: “One of the rights of a she-camel,” meaning the customary rights of the poor and needy in the she-camels as recognized by Arabs, “is that it should be milked at a place of water,” to offer some of the she-camels’ milk to them. They specified the places of water to make it easier and more convenient for the poor and needy to access them, compared to going to the owners’ houses, and it is also better to milk the she-camels after they are watered to produce more milk. However, this does not mean that it is obligatory on the owners of the she-camels to milk them in the places of water, but it was rather customary, and the Laws of Islam graciously deemed it recommended for the benefit of the poor. .
