1212. It was narrated that 'Alī said: "I had certain times when I used to come to the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ. When I came to him I would ask for permission to enter. If I found him praying he would clear his throat and I would enter, and if I found him free he would give me permission (to enter)." (Sahīh)
