Arabic text

٣٦٤٠ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌أَبُو قُتَيْبَةَ سَلْمُ بْنُ قُتَيْبَةَ ، عَنْ ‌عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ الْمُثَنَّى ، عَنْ ‌ثُمَامَةَ ، عَنْ ‌أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ قَالَ: «كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُعِيدُ الْكَلِمَةَ ثَلَاثًا لِتُعْقَلَ عَنْهُ.» هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ غَرِيبٌ، إِنَّمَا نَعْرِفُهُ مِنْ حَدِيثِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ الْمُثَنَّى.

Commentary

According to the situation, the Prophet ﷺ would repeat his words to make it understood by the listeners. It depends on what he was talking about. Sometimes he discussed delicate topics and repeated for the people, so that they could understand the significance and depth of the issue.
