Could you mention the reference for this please?
Sayyiduna Kharijah Ibn Hudhafah (radiyallahu ‘anhu) narrates that one day Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) came to us and said:
“Allah has granted you an additional Salah, which is better for you than red camels; this Salah is Witr. Allah has appointed its time between ‘Isha Salah and the break of dawn.”
Answer:
Imams Tirmidhi and Abu Dawud (rahimahumallah) have recorded this Hadith.
(Sunan Tirmidhi, Hadith: 452, Sunan Abi Dawud, Hadith: 1418)
Imam Hakim (rahimahullah) has declared the Hadith authentic and ‘Allamah Dhahabi concurs.
(Mustadrak Hakim, vol. 1 pg. 306. Also see: Footnotes of Shaykh Muhammad ‘Awwamah on Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah, Hadith: 6928)
The ‘Arabs considered red camels to be a very valuable commodity.
(Tuhfatul Ahwadhi, Hadith: 452)
And Allah Ta’ala Knows best.
