Malik related to me from Sumayy, the mawla of Abu Bakr from Abu
Salih from Abu Hurayra that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless
him and grant him peace, said, "Travelling is a portion of the
torment. It denies you your sleep, food, and drink. When you have
accomplished your purpose, you should hurry back to your family."
Muwatta Malik Book 54, Hadith 40

Malik related to me from Abu Ubayd, the mawla of Sulayman ibn Abd
al-Malik from Khalid ibn Madan who attributed it to the Prophet, may
Allah bless him and grant him peace, "Allah, the Blessed and Exalted
is kind and loves kindness. He is pleased with it and helps you with
it as long as it is not misplaced. When you ride dumb beasts, stop
them in their stopping places, and quicken their pace when the land is
barren. Travel by night, because the land is travelled faster at night
than it is during the day. Beware of pitching tents on the road, for
it is the path of animals and the abode of snakes."
