Hurrying in walking upon seeing the city after travel

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: It is mentioned in a hadith that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)
He would, when he saw the city and had arrived from a journey, hurry in his walking out of his love for it.كان إذا رأى المدينة وقد قدم من السفر أسرع في المشي لحبه لها.
The question is: Is it prescribed to do something like this when a person arrives from a journey to his city or his town?

Answer:
By Allah, I do not know this. What I know is that the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) did not surprise his family; rather, he would delay and order his companions to delay until their women were prepared for them; he did not surprise them. Yes.
