Hadith 973

حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي مَرْيَمَ، قَالَ‏:‏ حَدَّثَنَا عَطَّافُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ قَالَ‏:‏ حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ رَزِينٍ قَالَ‏:‏ مَرَرْنَا بِالرَّبَذَةِ فَقِيلَ لَنَا‏:‏ هَا هُنَا سَلَمَةُ بْنُ الأَكْوَعِ، فَأَتَيْنَاهُ فَسَلَّمْنَا عَلَيْهِ، فَأَخْرَجَ يَدَيْهِ فَقَالَ‏:‏ بَايَعْتُ بِهَاتَيْنِ نَبِيَّ اللهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَأَخْرَجَ كَفًّا لَهُ ضَخْمَةً كَأَنَّهَا كَفُّ بَعِيرٍ، فَقُمْنَا إِلَيْهَا فَقَبَّلْنَاهَا‏.‏
It is narrated from Abdur Rahman bin Razeen (may Allah have mercy on him) that we passed by the place of Rabdhah, and we were informed that Sayyiduna Salamah bin Akwa’ (may Allah be pleased with him) was residing there. We went to him and greeted him with salam. Then he extended both his hands and said: I pledged allegiance to the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) with these two hands. He extended his large, heavy palm, and it was as big as a camel’s palm. We got up towards it and kissed it.
