Malik related to me from Yahya ibn Said that the Messenger of Allah, (ﷺ), asked about a milk camel about to be milked, "Who milks this camel?" A man stood up. The Messenger of Allah, (ﷺ), said, "What is your name?" The man said, "Murra (bitterness)." The Messenger of Allah, (ﷺ), said to him, "Sit down." Then he said, "Who milks this one?" A man stood up and the Messenger of Allah, (ﷺ), said, "What is your name?" He said, "Harb (war)." The Messenger of Allah, (ﷺ), said, "Sit down." Then he said, "Who milks this camel?" A man stood up, and the Messenger of Allah, (ﷺ), said to him, "What is your name?" The man said, ''Yaish (he lives)." The Messenger of Allah, (ﷺ), said to him, "Milk!"
