[7355] (2931) 'Abdullāh bin 'Umar (in continuation of the previous Ḥadīth) said: "After that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ and Ubayy bin Ka'b Al-Anṣārī went to the palm trees where Ibn Ṣayyād was. When the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ entered the palm trees, he hid himself behind the trunks of the trees, hoping to hear something from Ibn Ṣayyād before Ibn Ṣayyād saw him. The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ saw him lying on a bed under a blanket, murmuring something. But the mother of Ibn Ṣayyād saw the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ hiding among the trunks of the palm trees, and said to Ibn Ṣayyād: 'O Ṣāf' – which was the name of Ibn Ṣayyād – 'here is Muḥammad!' Ibn Ṣayyād jumped up and the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: 'If she had left him the matter would have become clear.'"
