Majma al-Zawaid — Hadith 13538

وَعَنْ رَجُلٍ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ قَالَ : خَرَجْتُ مَعَ أَهْلِي أُرِيدُ النَّبِيَّ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - وَإِذَا بِهِ قَائِمٌ ، وَإِذَا رَجُلٌ مُقْبِلٌ عَلَيْهِ ، فَظَنَنْتُ أَنَّ لَهُمَا حَاجَةً فَجَلَسْتُ ، فَوَاللَّهِ لَقَدْ قَامَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - حَتَّى جَعَلْتُ أَرْثِي لَهُ مِنْ طُولِ الْقِيَامِ ، ثُمَّ انْصَرَفَ ، فَقُمْتُ إِلَيْهِ فَقُلْتُ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، لَقَدْ قَامَ بِكَ هَذَا الرَّجُلُ حَتَّى جَعَلْتُ أَرْثِي لَكَ مِنْ طُولِ الْقِيَامِ ؟ قَالَ : " أَتَدْرِي مَنْ هَذَا ؟ " . قُلْتُ : لَا . قَالَ : " جِبْرِيلُ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - مَازَالَ يُوصِي بِالْجَارِ حَتَّى ظَنَنْتُ أَنَّهُ سَيُوَرِّثُهُ ، أَمَا إِنَّكَ لَوْ سَلَّمْتَ عَلَيْهِ لَرَدَّ عَلَيْكَ السَّلَامَ " . رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ ، وَرِجَالُهُ رِجَالُ الصَّحِيحِ .
A man from the Ansar says: I set out with my family intending to meet the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). He was standing at a place, and a man was standing facing him. I thought that perhaps they had some important matter, so I sat down. By Allah! The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) remained standing for so long that, because of the length of the standing, I began to feel distressed for the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). When the other man had left, I got up and went to him and said: O Messenger of Allah! That man kept you standing so long that I began to feel distressed for you because of your long standing. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "Do you know who that was?" I replied: No. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "That was Jibril, and he kept urging me about the neighbour until I thought that he would make him an heir. Had you greeted him with salam, he would have returned your greeting."
Ahmad recorded it, and its narrators are the narrators of the "Sahih".
