English translation

4698. It was narrated that Abū Dharr and Abū Hurairah said: “The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ would be sitting among his Companions, and a stranger would come, and he would not know which of them he was until he asked. We asked the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ to let us make him a place to sit, so that strangers would recognise him when they came to him. So we built him a small mound of earth, and he sat on it, and we sat beside him...” a similar report (as no. 4695). “A man came” – and he described his appearance – “and greeted him from the edge of the gathering. He said: ‘As-Salāmu ‘Alaika yā Muḥammad (peace be upon you, O Muḥammad),’ and the Prophet ﷺ returned his greeting.” (Ṣaḥīh)

4698 - حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ، عَنْ أَبِي فَرْوَةَ الْهَمْدَانِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي زُرْعَةَ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ جَرِيرٍ، عَنْ أَبِي ذَرٍّ، وَأَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَا: كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَجْلِسُ بَيْنَ ظَهْرَيْ أَصْحَابِهِ، فَيَجِيءُ الْغَرِيبُ فَلَا يَدْرِي أَيُّهُمْ هُوَ حَتَّى يَسْأَلَ، فَطَلَبْنَا إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْ نَجْعَلَ لَهُ مَجْلِسًا يَعْرِفُهُ الْغَرِيبُ إِذَا أَتَاهُ، قَالَ: فَبَنَيْنَا لَهُ دُكَّانًا مِنْ طِينٍ، فَجَلَسَ عَلَيْهِ، وَكُنَّا نَجْلِسُ بِجَنْبَتَيْهِ، وَذَكَرَ نَحْوَ هَذَا الْخَبَرِ، فَأَقْبَلَ رَجُلٌ فَذَكَرَ هَيْئَتَهُ، حَتَّى سَلَّمَ مِنْ طَرَفِ السِّمَاطِ، فَقَالَ: السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ قَالَ: «فَرَدَّ عَلَيْهِ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ»
