question #2 Sahih al-Bukhari 5966, Book 77, Hadith 182 : How did the Prophet (ﷺ) manage seating arrangements when traveling with companions?

The worst of three (persons riding one, animal) was mentioned in `Ikrima’s presence `Ikrima said,
“Ibn `Abbas said, ‘(In the year of the conquest of Mecca) the Prophet (ﷺ) came and mounted Qutham
in front of him and Al-Fadl behind him, or Qutham behind him and Al-Fadl in front of him.’ Now
which of them was the worst off and which was the best?”
