حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ، عَنْ أَبِي فَرْوَةَ الْهَمْدَانِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي زُرْعَةَ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ جَرِيرٍ، عَنْ أَبِي ذَرٍّ، وَأَبِي، هُرَيْرَةَ قَالاَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَجْلِسُ بَيْنَ ظَهْرَىْ أَصْحَابِهِ فَيَجِيءُ الْغَرِيبُ فَلاَ يَدْرِي أَيُّهُمْ هُوَ حَتَّى يَسْأَلَ فَطَلَبْنَا إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم أَنْ نَجْعَلَ لَهُ مَجْلِسًا يَعْرِفُهُ الْغَرِيبُ إِذَا أَتَاهُ - قَالَ - فَبَنَيْنَا لَهُ دُكَّانًا مِنْ طِينٍ فَجَلَسَ عَلَيْهِ وَكُنَّا نَجْلِسُ بِجَنْبَتَيْهِ وَذَكَرَ نَحْوَ هَذَا الْخَبَرِ فَأَقْبَلَ رَجُلٌ فَذَكَرَ هَيْئَتَهُ حَتَّى سَلَّمَ مِنْ طَرْفِ السِّمَاطِ فَقَالَ السَّلاَمُ عَلَيْكَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ . قَالَ فَرَدَّ عَلَيْهِ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم .
‘Uthman ibn Abi Shaybah narrated to us: Jarir narrated to us, from Abu Farwah al-Hamdani, from Abu Zur‘ah ibn ‘Amr ibn Jarir, from Abu Dharr and Abu Hurayrah, who said: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) used to sit among his Companions. A stranger would arrive and not know which of them he was until he asked. We asked the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) to have a seat made for him that a stranger could recognize when he came. We built for him a raised earthen bench, and he sat on it while we sat beside him. He then related something like this report. A man came, and he described his appearance, until he greeted him from the edge of the gathering, saying, ‘Peace be upon you, Muhammad.’ The Prophet (ﷺ) returned his greeting.
