6174. 'Abdullāh bin 'Umar added: Later on Allāh's Messenger ﷺ and Ubayy bin Ka'b Al-Anṣārī (once again) went to the garden in which Ibn Ṣaiyyād was present. When Allāh's Messenger ﷺ entered the garden, he started hiding behind the trunks of the date-palms intending to hear something from Ibn Ṣaiyyād before the latter could see him. Ibn Ṣaiyyād was lying on his bed, covered with a velvet sheet from where his murmur were heard. Ibn Ṣaiyyād's mother saw the Prophet ﷺ and said, "O Ṣāf (the nickname of Ibn Ṣaiyyād)! Here is Muḥammad!" Ibn Ṣaiyyād stopped his murmuring. The Prophet ﷺ said, "If his mother had kept quiet, then I would have learnt more about him."

6174 - قَالَ سَالِمٌ: فَسَمِعْتُ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عُمَرَ، يَقُولُ: انْطَلَقَ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَأُبَيُّ بْنُ كَعْبٍ الأَنْصَارِيُّ، يَؤُمَّانِ النَّخْلَ الَّتِي فِيهَا ابْنُ صَيَّادٍ، حَتَّى إِذَا دَخَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، طَفِقَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَتَّقِي بِجُذُوعِ النَّخْلِ، وَهُوَ يَخْتِلُ أَنْ يَسْمَعَ مِنْ ابْنِ صَيَّادٍ شَيْئًا قَبْلَ أَنْ يَرَاهُ، وَابْنُ صَيَّادٍ مُضْطَجِعٌ عَلَى فِرَاشِهِ فِي قَطِيفَةٍ لَهُ فِيهَا رَمْرَمَةٌ، أَوْ زَمْزَمَةٌ، فَرَأَتْ أُمُّ ابْنِ صَيَّادٍ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَهُوَ يَتَّقِي بِجُذُوعِ النَّخْلِ، فَقَالَتْ لِابْنِ صَيَّادٍ: أَيْ صَافِ - وَهُوَ اسْمُهُ - هَذَا مُحَمَّدٌ، فَتَنَاهَى ابْنُ صَيَّادٍ، قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «لَوْ تَرَكَتْهُ بَيَّنَ»
