اُردوEn
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَاصِمٍ، وَأَفْهَمَنِي بَعْضَهُ عَنْهُ أَبُو حَفْصِ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ، قَالَ: ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ أَخْبَرَنَا قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي عَمْرُو بْنُ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ، أَنَّ عَمْرَو بْنَ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ صَفْوَانَ أَخْبَرَهُ، أَنَّ كَلَدَةَ بْنَ حَنْبَلٍ أَخْبَرَهُ، أَنَّ صَفْوَانَ بْنَ أُمَيَّةَ بَعَثَهُ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي الْفَتْحِ بِلَبَنٍ وَجِدَايَةٍ وَضَغَابِيسَ، قَالَ أَبُو عَاصِمٍ: يَعْنِي الْبَقْلَ، وَالنَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِأَعْلَى الْوَادِي، وَلَمْ أُسَلِّمْ وَلَمْ أَسْتَأْذِنْ، فَقَالَ: ”ارْجِعْ، فَقُلِ السَّلاَمُ عَلَيْكُمْ، أَأَدْخُلُ؟“، وَذَلِكَ بَعْدَ مَا أَسْلَمَ صَفْوَانُ. قَالَ عَمْرٌو: وَأَخْبَرَنِي أُمَيَّةُ بْنُ صَفْوَانَ بِهَذَا عَنْ كَلَدَةَ، وَلَمْ يَقُلْ: سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْ كَلَدَةَ.
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Kulda bin Hanbal (may Allah be pleased with him) that Sayyiduna Safwan bin Umayyah (may Allah be pleased with him) sent me to the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) on the occasion of the conquest of Makkah with milk, a roasted fawn, and some vegetables. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) was at that time in the upper part of the valley of Makkah. I went to the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) without greeting or seeking permission, so the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "Go back and say: «السلام علیکم»! May I come in?" This incident took place after Safwan had embraced Islam. Amr bin Abi Sufyan says that Umayyah bin Safwan also narrated this incident to me from Sayyiduna Kulda (may Allah be pleased with him), but he did not say that he had heard it from Sayyiduna Kulda (may Allah be pleased with him).

Benefits and Issues:
If, upon entering the house, the name of Allah is not mentioned, then Shaytan enters along with the person. Therefore, such a person is instructed to go out of the house and seek permission again, and to enter after giving salam (greeting of peace). A person who enters without giving salam should not be allowed to sit; rather, he should be permitted to sit only after coming in again with salam and permission.
