Chapter: How many times should one say salam when seeking permission to enter.
Hadith 5180
حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَبْدَةَ ، أَخْبَرَنَا سُفْيَانُ ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ خُصَيْفَةَ ، عَنْ بُسْرِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ ، قَالَ : كُنْتُ جَالِسًا فِي مَجْلِسٍ مِنْ مَجَالِسِ الْأَنْصَارِ ، فَجَاءَ أَبُو مُوسَى فَزِعًا ، فَقُلْنَا لَهُ : مَا أَفْزَعَكَ ؟ قَالَ : " أَمَرَنِي عُمَرُ أَنْ آتِيَهُ فَأَتَيْتُهُ ، فَاسْتَأْذَنْتُ ثَلَاثًا فَلَمْ يُؤْذَنْ لِي فَرَجَعْتُ ، فَقَالَ : مَا مَنَعَكَ أَنْ تَأْتِيَنِي ؟ قُلْتُ : قَدْ جِئْتُ فَاسْتَأْذَنْتُ ثَلَاثًا ، فَلَمْ يُؤْذَنْ لِي ، وَقَدْ قال رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : إِذَا اسْتَأْذَنَ أَحَدُكُمْ ثَلَاثًا ، فَلَمْ يُؤْذَنْ لَهُ ، فَلْيَرْجِعْ , قال : لَتَأْتِيَنَّ عَلَى هَذَا بِالْبَيِّنَةِ ، فَقَالَ أَبُو سَعِيدٍ : لَا يَقُومُ مَعَكَ إِلَّا أَصْغَرُ الْقَوْمِ ، قَالَ : فَقَامَ أَبُو سَعِيدٍ مَعَهُ ، فَشَهِدَ لَهُ .
Abu Saeed Al-Khudri said: I was sitting in one of the meeting of the Ansar. Abu Musa came terrified. We asked him; what makes you terrified? He replied: Umar sent for me; so I went to him and asked his permission three times, but he did not permit me (to enter), so I came back. He asked; what has prevented you from coming to me? I replied: I came and asked permission three times, but it was not granted to me (so I returned). The Messenger of Allah ﷺ has said: When one of you asks permission three times and it is not granted to him, he should go away. He (Umar’) said; establish the proof of it. So Abu Saeed said: the youngest of the people will accompany you. So Abu Saeed got up with him and testified.
