Hadith 8286
عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ بُسْرٍ الْمَازِنِيِّ صَاحِبِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذَا أَتَى بَيْتَ قَوْمٍ أَتَاهُ مِمَّا يَلِي جِدَارَهُ وَلَا يَأْتِيهِ مُسْتَقْبِلًا بَابَهُ
Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Busr Mazni (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that when the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would come to people's houses, he would stand near its wall and would not stand in front of its door.
Hadith 8287
(وَعَنْهُ مِنْ طَرِيقٍ ثَانٍ) قَالَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذَا جَاءَ الْبَابَ يَسْتَأْذِنُ لَمْ يَسْتَقْبِلْهُ يَقُولُ يَمْشِي مَعَ الْحَائِطِ حَتَّى يَسْتَأْذِنَ فَيُؤْذَنَ لَهُ أَوْ يَنْصَرِفَ
(Second chain) When the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) came to the door of someone's house to seek permission, he would not stand facing the door; rather, he would walk along the wall until he had sought permission or else he would return.
Hadith 8288
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."
