English translation
4187. Abu Sa'eed Al-Khudri said: "We were sitting with the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ and he said: 'The delegations of 'Abdul-Qais have come to you,' and no one had seen anyone. While we were like that, they came and alighted. They came to the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ and Ashajj 'Ansāri was left behind. He came afterwards, and halted at the halting-place, made his she-camel kneel down, and changed of his traveling clothes, then he came to the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ. The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said to him: 'O Ashajj, you have two characteristics that Allāh likes: Forbearance and deliberation.' He said: 'O Messenger of Allāh, was I born with them or are they something that I have acquired?' He said: 'No, rather it is something that you were born with.'" (Da'if)
