Al-Fath ar-Rabbani 8288 — on the Etiquette of Seeking Permission
عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْمُنْكَدِرِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ اسْتَأْذَنْتُ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ مَنْ ذَا فَقُلْتُ أَنَا فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَا أَنَا قَالَ مُحَمَّدٌ كَأَنَّهُ كَرِهَ قَوْلَهُ أَنَا
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah, may Allah be pleased with them both, he says: I sought permission from the Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him. The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: Who is it? I said: It is me, me. The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Me, me... what is this?" Muhammad, the narrator, says: It is as if the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, disliked the word "me."
Brief Explanation
Benefits: … Reflect upon the noble habits and manners of the Noble Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam—how much seriousness and dignity there is. These habits were being introduced more than fourteen centuries ago.
