بَابُ مَنْ قَالَ: مَنْ ذَا؟ فَقَالَ: أَنَا
Chapter: Saying "Who is it?" and replying "It's me"
Al-Adab al-Mufrad 1086 — Saying "Who is it?" and replying "It's me"
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْوَلِيدِ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْمُنْكَدِرِ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ جَابِرًا يَقُولُ: أَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي دَيْنٍ كَانَ عَلَى أَبِي، فَدَقَقْتُ الْبَابَ، فَقَالَ: ”مَنْ ذَا؟“ فَقُلْتُ: أَنَا، قَالَ: ”أَنَا، أَنَا؟“، كَأَنَّهُ كَرِهَهُ.
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) that I came to the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) regarding my father's debt and knocked at the door. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "Who is it?" I replied: "It is I." The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "'It is I, it is I?'" as if he disliked this response.
