Majma al-Zawaid — Hadith 15838
اُردوEn
وَعَنْ سَلْمَانَ قَالَ : كُنْتُ رَجُلًا مِنْ أَهْلِ حَيِّ ، مَدِينَةِ أَصْبَهَانَ ، فَبَيْنَا أَنَا إِذْ أَلْقَى اللَّهُ - عَزَّ وَجَلَّ - فِي قَلْبِي مَنْ خَلَقَ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ فَانْطَلَقْتُ إِلَى ، رَجُلً لَمْ يَكُنْ يُكَلِّمُ النَّاسَ يَتَحَرَّجُ ، فَسَأَلْتُهُ : أَيُّ الدِّينِ أَفْضَلُ ؟ فَقَالَ : مَا لَكَ وَلِهَذَا الْحَدِيثِ ؟ أَتُرِيدُ دِينًا غَيْرَ دِينِكَ ؟ قُلْتُ : لَا وَلَكِنْ أُحِبُّ أَنْ أَعْلَمَ مَنْ خَلَقَ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضَ ؟ وَأَيَّ دِينٍ أَفْضَلُ ؟ . قَالَ : مَا أَعْلَمُ عَلَى هَذَا غَيْرَ رَاهِبٍ بِالْمَوْصِلِ .
قَالَ : فَذَهَبْتُ إِلَيْهِ فَسَكَنْتُ عِنْدَهُ ، فَإِذَا هُوَ قَدْ قُتِّرَ عَلَيْهِ فِي الدُّنْيَا ، فَكَانَ يَصُومُ النَّهَارِ وَيَقُومُ اللَّيْلِ ، فَكُنْتُ أَعْبُدُ كَعِبَادَتِهِ ، فَلَبِثْتُ عِنْدَهُ ثَلَاثَ سِنِينَ ، ثُمَّ تُوُفِّيَ فَقُلْتُ : إِلَى مَنْ تُوصِي بِي ؟ فَقَالَ : مَا أَعْلَمُ أَحَدًا مِنْ أَهْلِ الْمَشْرِقِ عَلَى مَا أَنَا عَلَيْهِ ، فَعَلَيْكَ بِرَاهِبٍ مِنْ وَرَاءِ الْجَزِيرَةِ ، فَأَقْرِئْهُ مِنِّي السَّلَامَ . قَالَ : فَجِئْتُهُ فَأَقْرَأْتُهُ السَّلَامَ ، وَأَخْبَرْتُهُ أَنَّهُ قَدْ تُوُفِّيَ ، فَمَكَثْتُ عِنْدَهُ أَيْضًا ثَلَاثَ سِنِينَ ثُمَّ تُوُفِّيَ ، فَقُلْتُ : إِلَى مَنْ تَأْمُرُنِي أَنْ أَذْهَبَ ؟ قَالَ : مَا أَعْلَمُ أَحَدًا مِنْ أَهْلِ الْأَرْضِ عَلَى مَا أَنَا عَلَيْهِ غَيْرَ رَاهِبٍ بِعَمُورِيَّةَ شَيْخٍ كَبِيرٍ ، وَمَا أَدْرِي تَلْحَقُهُ أَمْ لَا ؟ فَذَهَبْتُ إِلَيْهِ فَكُنْتُ عِنْدَهُ ، فَإِذَا رَجُلٌ مُوَسَّعٌ عَلَيْهِ ، فَلَمَّا حَضَرَتْهُ الْوَفَاةُ قُلْتُ لَهُ : أَيْنَ تَأْمُرُنِي أَنْ أَذْهَبَ ؟ قَالَ : مَا أَعْلَمُ أَحَدًا مِنْ أَهْلِ الْأَرْضِ عَلَى مَا أَنَا عَلَيْهِ ، وَلَكِنْ إِنْ أَدْرَكْتَ زَمَانًا تَسْمَعُ بِرَجُلٍ يَخْرُجُ مِنْ بَيْتِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - وَمَا أَرَاكَ تُدْرِكُهُ وَقَدْ كُنْتُ أَرْجُو أَنْ أَدْرَكَنِي إِنِ اسْتَطَعْتَ أَنْ تَكُونَ مَعَهُ فَافْعَلْ ; فَإِنَّهُ الدِّينُ ، وَأَمَارَةُ ذَلِكَ : أَنَّ قَوْمُهُ يَقُولُونَ : سَاحِرٌ مَجْنُونٌ كَاهِنٌ ، وَإِنَّهُ يَأْكُلُ الْهَدِيَّةَ وَلَا يَأْكُلُ الصَّدَقَةَ ، وَإِنَّ عِنْدَ غُضْرُوفِ كَتِفِهِ خَاتَمَ النُّبُوَّةِ . فَبَيْنَا أَنَا كَذَلِكَ أَتَى رَكْبٌ مِنْ نَحْوِ الْمَدِينَةِ ، فَقِيلَ : مَنْ أَنْتُمْ ؟ فَقَالُوا : نَحْنُ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْمَدِينَةِ ، وَنَحْنُ قَوْمٌ تُجَّارٌ نَعِيشُ بِتِجَارَتِنَا ، وَلَكِنَّهُ قَدْ خَرَجَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ بَيْتِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فَقَدِمَ عَلَيْنَا وَقَوْمُهُ يُقَاتِلُونَهُ ، وَقَدْ خَشِينَا أَنْ يَحُولَ بَيْنَنَا وَبَيْنَ تِجَارَتِنَا ، وَلَكِنَّهُ قَدْ مَلَكَ الْمَدِينَةَ . فَقُلْتُ : مَا يَقُولُونَ فِيهِ ؟ قَالَ : يَقُولُونَ : سَاحِرٌ ، مَجْنُونٌ ، كَاهِنٌ ، فَقُلْتُ : هَذِهِ الْأَمَارَةُ ، دُلُّونِي عَلَى صَاحِبِكُمْ . فَجِئْتُهُ فَقُلْتُ : تَحْمِلُنِي إِلَى الْمَدِينَةِ ؟ فَقَالَ : مَا تُعْطِينِي ؟ فَقُلْتُ : مَا أَجِدُ شَيْئًا أُعْطِيكَ غَيْرَ أَنِّي لَكَ عَبْدٌ ، فَحَمَلَنِي ، فَلَمَّا قَدِمْتُ جَعَلَنِي فِي نَخْلِهِ ، فَكُنْتُ أَسْقِي كَمَا يَسْقِي الْبَعِيرُ ، حَتَّى دَبِرَ ظَهْرِي وَصَدْرِي مِنْ ذَلِكَ ، وَلَا أَجِدُ أَحَدًا يَفْقَهُ كَلَامِي ، حَتَّى جَاءَتْ عَجُوزٌ فَارِسِيَّةٌ تَسْتَقِي فَكَلَّمْتُهَا فَفَقُهَتْ كَلَامِي ، فَقُلْتُ لَهَا : أَيْنَ هَذَا الرَّجُلُ الَّذِي خَرَجَ ؟ دُلِّينِي عَلَيْهِ . قَالَتْ : سَيَمُرُّ عَلَيْكَ بُكْرَةً إِذَا صَلَّى الصُّبْحَ مِنْ أَوَّلِ النَّهَارِ ، فَخَرَجْتُ فَجَمَعْتُ تَمْرًا ، فَلَمَّا أَصْبَحْتُ جِئْتُ ، ثُمَّ قَرَّبْتُ إِلَيْهِ التَّمْرَ ، فَقَالَ : " مَا هَذَا أَصَدَقَةٌ أَمْ هَدِيَّةٌ ؟ " . فَأَشَرْتُ أَنَّهُ صَدَقَةٌ ، فَقَالَ : " انْطَلِقْ إِلَى هَؤُلَاءِ " . وَأَصْحَابُهُ عِنْدَهُ ، فَأَكَلُوا وَلَمْ يَأْكُلْ ، فَقُلْتُ : هَذِهِ الْأَمَارَةُ .
فَلَمَّا كَانَ الْغَدُ جِئْتُ بِتَمْرٍ ، فَقَالَ : " مَا هَذَا ؟ " . فَقُلْتُ : هَذِهِ هَدِيَّةٌ ، فَأَكَلَ وَدَعَا أَصْحَابَهُ فَأَكَلُوا ، ثُمَّ رَآنِي أَتَعَرَّضُ لِأَرَى الْخَاتَمَ ، فَعَرَفَ فَأَلْقَى رِدَاءَهُ فَأَخَذْتُ أُقَبِّلُهُ وَأَلْتَزِمُهُ ، فَقَالَ : " مَا شَأْنُكَ ؟ " . فَسَأَلَنِي ، فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ خَبَرِي فَقَالَ : " اشْتَرَطْتَ لَهُمْ أَنَّكَ عَبْدٌ ، فَاشْتَرِ نَفْسَكَ مِنْهُمْ " . فَاشْتَرَاهُ النَّبِيُّ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - عَلَى أَنْ يُحْيِيَ لَهُمْ ثَلَاثَ مِائَةِ نَخْلَةٍ وَأَرْبَعِينَ أُوقِيَّةِ ذَهَبٍ ، ثُمَّ هُوَ حُرٌّ . قَالَ النَّبِيُّ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : " اغْرِسْ " . فَغَرَسَ " ثُمَّ انْطَلِقْ فَأَلْقِ الدَّلْوَ عَلَى الْبِئْرِ ، ثُمَّ لَا تَرْفَعُهُ حَتَّى يَرْتَفِعَ ; فَإِنَّهُ إِذَا امْتَلَأَ ارْتَفَعَ ، ثُمَّ رُشَّ فِي أُصُولِهَا " . فَفَعَلَ ، فَنَبَتَ النَّخْلُ أَسْرَعَ النَّبَاتِ ، فَقَالَ : سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ ! مَا رَأَيْنَا مِثْلَ هَذَا الْعَبْدِ ، إِنَّ لِهَذَا الْعَبْدِ لَشَأْنًا ، فَاجْتَمَعَ النَّاسُ عَلَيْهِ ، وَأَعْطَاهُ النَّبِيُّ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - تِبْرًا ، فَإِذَا فِيهِ أَرْبَعُونَ أُوقِيَّةً . رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ ، وَفِيهِ مَنْ لَمْ أَعْرِفْهُ .
قَالَ : فَذَهَبْتُ إِلَيْهِ فَسَكَنْتُ عِنْدَهُ ، فَإِذَا هُوَ قَدْ قُتِّرَ عَلَيْهِ فِي الدُّنْيَا ، فَكَانَ يَصُومُ النَّهَارِ وَيَقُومُ اللَّيْلِ ، فَكُنْتُ أَعْبُدُ كَعِبَادَتِهِ ، فَلَبِثْتُ عِنْدَهُ ثَلَاثَ سِنِينَ ، ثُمَّ تُوُفِّيَ فَقُلْتُ : إِلَى مَنْ تُوصِي بِي ؟ فَقَالَ : مَا أَعْلَمُ أَحَدًا مِنْ أَهْلِ الْمَشْرِقِ عَلَى مَا أَنَا عَلَيْهِ ، فَعَلَيْكَ بِرَاهِبٍ مِنْ وَرَاءِ الْجَزِيرَةِ ، فَأَقْرِئْهُ مِنِّي السَّلَامَ . قَالَ : فَجِئْتُهُ فَأَقْرَأْتُهُ السَّلَامَ ، وَأَخْبَرْتُهُ أَنَّهُ قَدْ تُوُفِّيَ ، فَمَكَثْتُ عِنْدَهُ أَيْضًا ثَلَاثَ سِنِينَ ثُمَّ تُوُفِّيَ ، فَقُلْتُ : إِلَى مَنْ تَأْمُرُنِي أَنْ أَذْهَبَ ؟ قَالَ : مَا أَعْلَمُ أَحَدًا مِنْ أَهْلِ الْأَرْضِ عَلَى مَا أَنَا عَلَيْهِ غَيْرَ رَاهِبٍ بِعَمُورِيَّةَ شَيْخٍ كَبِيرٍ ، وَمَا أَدْرِي تَلْحَقُهُ أَمْ لَا ؟ فَذَهَبْتُ إِلَيْهِ فَكُنْتُ عِنْدَهُ ، فَإِذَا رَجُلٌ مُوَسَّعٌ عَلَيْهِ ، فَلَمَّا حَضَرَتْهُ الْوَفَاةُ قُلْتُ لَهُ : أَيْنَ تَأْمُرُنِي أَنْ أَذْهَبَ ؟ قَالَ : مَا أَعْلَمُ أَحَدًا مِنْ أَهْلِ الْأَرْضِ عَلَى مَا أَنَا عَلَيْهِ ، وَلَكِنْ إِنْ أَدْرَكْتَ زَمَانًا تَسْمَعُ بِرَجُلٍ يَخْرُجُ مِنْ بَيْتِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - وَمَا أَرَاكَ تُدْرِكُهُ وَقَدْ كُنْتُ أَرْجُو أَنْ أَدْرَكَنِي إِنِ اسْتَطَعْتَ أَنْ تَكُونَ مَعَهُ فَافْعَلْ ; فَإِنَّهُ الدِّينُ ، وَأَمَارَةُ ذَلِكَ : أَنَّ قَوْمُهُ يَقُولُونَ : سَاحِرٌ مَجْنُونٌ كَاهِنٌ ، وَإِنَّهُ يَأْكُلُ الْهَدِيَّةَ وَلَا يَأْكُلُ الصَّدَقَةَ ، وَإِنَّ عِنْدَ غُضْرُوفِ كَتِفِهِ خَاتَمَ النُّبُوَّةِ . فَبَيْنَا أَنَا كَذَلِكَ أَتَى رَكْبٌ مِنْ نَحْوِ الْمَدِينَةِ ، فَقِيلَ : مَنْ أَنْتُمْ ؟ فَقَالُوا : نَحْنُ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْمَدِينَةِ ، وَنَحْنُ قَوْمٌ تُجَّارٌ نَعِيشُ بِتِجَارَتِنَا ، وَلَكِنَّهُ قَدْ خَرَجَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ بَيْتِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فَقَدِمَ عَلَيْنَا وَقَوْمُهُ يُقَاتِلُونَهُ ، وَقَدْ خَشِينَا أَنْ يَحُولَ بَيْنَنَا وَبَيْنَ تِجَارَتِنَا ، وَلَكِنَّهُ قَدْ مَلَكَ الْمَدِينَةَ . فَقُلْتُ : مَا يَقُولُونَ فِيهِ ؟ قَالَ : يَقُولُونَ : سَاحِرٌ ، مَجْنُونٌ ، كَاهِنٌ ، فَقُلْتُ : هَذِهِ الْأَمَارَةُ ، دُلُّونِي عَلَى صَاحِبِكُمْ . فَجِئْتُهُ فَقُلْتُ : تَحْمِلُنِي إِلَى الْمَدِينَةِ ؟ فَقَالَ : مَا تُعْطِينِي ؟ فَقُلْتُ : مَا أَجِدُ شَيْئًا أُعْطِيكَ غَيْرَ أَنِّي لَكَ عَبْدٌ ، فَحَمَلَنِي ، فَلَمَّا قَدِمْتُ جَعَلَنِي فِي نَخْلِهِ ، فَكُنْتُ أَسْقِي كَمَا يَسْقِي الْبَعِيرُ ، حَتَّى دَبِرَ ظَهْرِي وَصَدْرِي مِنْ ذَلِكَ ، وَلَا أَجِدُ أَحَدًا يَفْقَهُ كَلَامِي ، حَتَّى جَاءَتْ عَجُوزٌ فَارِسِيَّةٌ تَسْتَقِي فَكَلَّمْتُهَا فَفَقُهَتْ كَلَامِي ، فَقُلْتُ لَهَا : أَيْنَ هَذَا الرَّجُلُ الَّذِي خَرَجَ ؟ دُلِّينِي عَلَيْهِ . قَالَتْ : سَيَمُرُّ عَلَيْكَ بُكْرَةً إِذَا صَلَّى الصُّبْحَ مِنْ أَوَّلِ النَّهَارِ ، فَخَرَجْتُ فَجَمَعْتُ تَمْرًا ، فَلَمَّا أَصْبَحْتُ جِئْتُ ، ثُمَّ قَرَّبْتُ إِلَيْهِ التَّمْرَ ، فَقَالَ : " مَا هَذَا أَصَدَقَةٌ أَمْ هَدِيَّةٌ ؟ " . فَأَشَرْتُ أَنَّهُ صَدَقَةٌ ، فَقَالَ : " انْطَلِقْ إِلَى هَؤُلَاءِ " . وَأَصْحَابُهُ عِنْدَهُ ، فَأَكَلُوا وَلَمْ يَأْكُلْ ، فَقُلْتُ : هَذِهِ الْأَمَارَةُ .
فَلَمَّا كَانَ الْغَدُ جِئْتُ بِتَمْرٍ ، فَقَالَ : " مَا هَذَا ؟ " . فَقُلْتُ : هَذِهِ هَدِيَّةٌ ، فَأَكَلَ وَدَعَا أَصْحَابَهُ فَأَكَلُوا ، ثُمَّ رَآنِي أَتَعَرَّضُ لِأَرَى الْخَاتَمَ ، فَعَرَفَ فَأَلْقَى رِدَاءَهُ فَأَخَذْتُ أُقَبِّلُهُ وَأَلْتَزِمُهُ ، فَقَالَ : " مَا شَأْنُكَ ؟ " . فَسَأَلَنِي ، فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ خَبَرِي فَقَالَ : " اشْتَرَطْتَ لَهُمْ أَنَّكَ عَبْدٌ ، فَاشْتَرِ نَفْسَكَ مِنْهُمْ " . فَاشْتَرَاهُ النَّبِيُّ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - عَلَى أَنْ يُحْيِيَ لَهُمْ ثَلَاثَ مِائَةِ نَخْلَةٍ وَأَرْبَعِينَ أُوقِيَّةِ ذَهَبٍ ، ثُمَّ هُوَ حُرٌّ . قَالَ النَّبِيُّ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : " اغْرِسْ " . فَغَرَسَ " ثُمَّ انْطَلِقْ فَأَلْقِ الدَّلْوَ عَلَى الْبِئْرِ ، ثُمَّ لَا تَرْفَعُهُ حَتَّى يَرْتَفِعَ ; فَإِنَّهُ إِذَا امْتَلَأَ ارْتَفَعَ ، ثُمَّ رُشَّ فِي أُصُولِهَا " . فَفَعَلَ ، فَنَبَتَ النَّخْلُ أَسْرَعَ النَّبَاتِ ، فَقَالَ : سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ ! مَا رَأَيْنَا مِثْلَ هَذَا الْعَبْدِ ، إِنَّ لِهَذَا الْعَبْدِ لَشَأْنًا ، فَاجْتَمَعَ النَّاسُ عَلَيْهِ ، وَأَعْطَاهُ النَّبِيُّ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - تِبْرًا ، فَإِذَا فِيهِ أَرْبَعُونَ أُوقِيَّةً . رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ ، وَفِيهِ مَنْ لَمْ أَعْرِفْهُ .
Sayyiduna Salman (may Allah be pleased with him) states: I was a resident of Jayy, which is in the region of Isfahan. Once Allah Almighty put this question into my heart: who created the heavens and the earth? I went to a man who rarely mixed with people. I asked him: "Which religion is most excellent?" He said: "What have you to do with this matter? Do you want some religion other than your own?" I said: "No, but I want to know who created the heavens and the earth, and which religion is most excellent." He said: "Only a monk who is in Mosul has knowledge of this." Sayyiduna Salman (may Allah be pleased with him) says: I went to him and stayed with him. He was a man who was detached from the world; he would fast by day and stand in worship by night. I too began to worship as he worshipped. I stayed with him for three years. Then he was about to pass away, and I said: "To whom do you bequeath me to go?" He said: "Among the people of the East I do not know of anyone who follows the religion I follow. You must go to a monk who is beyond al-Jazirah; convey my greetings of peace to him." Sayyiduna Salman (may Allah be pleased with him) says: I came to him, conveyed the greetings to him, and told him that that person had passed away. Then I stayed with this second monk for three years. Then he was about to pass away, and I said: "To whom do you direct me to go?" He said: "Among the people of the earth I do not know of anyone who follows the religion I follow, except for one monk who is in Ammuriyah; he is an old man. I do not know whether you will be able to reach him or not." Sayyiduna Salman (may Allah be pleased with him) says: I went to him and stayed with him. He was a man who had many comforts. When the time of his death drew near, I said to him: "Where do you direct me to go?" He said: "I do not know of anyone among the people of the earth who follows the religion I follow. But if you reach a time in which you hear of a person who has emerged from the House of Sayyiduna Ibrahim (peace be upon him), though I do not think that you will reach him, and I had hoped that if I found his time I too would go to him; then if you are able to go to him, do so, for that will be the true religion. His distinctive sign is that the people of his nation will say: 'He is a sorcerer, he is a madman, he is a soothsayer'; he will eat a gift but will not eat charity; and near his shoulder will be the Seal of Prophethood." Sayyiduna Salman (may Allah be pleased with him) says: While I was still there, some riders came there from the direction of Madinah. I asked them: "Where are you from?" They said: "We are from the people of Madinah. We are merchants and earn our livelihood through trade. But from among the people of the House of Sayyiduna Ibrahim (peace be upon him) a man has emerged; he has come to us, and his people are fighting him. We fear that he may obstruct our trade, but he has now become the ruler of Madinah." I asked: "What do people say about him?" They said: "People say: 'He is a sorcerer, he is a madman, he is a soothsayer.'" I thought: "This is one sign." I said: "Show me your master (of the caravan)." Then I came to him and said: "Will you take me with you to Madinah?" He asked: "What will you give me?" I said: "I have nothing to give you, except that I will become your slave." He let me ride with him. When I came to Madinah, he set me to work in a palm orchard. I would haul water just as a camel hauls water, until because of this the skin of my back and chest became sore. I found no one there who could understand my speech, until an old Persian woman came; she had come to draw water. I talked with her, and she understood my speech. I asked her: "Where is that man who has emerged? Will you guide me to him?" The woman replied: "He will pass by you in the morning, when he has offered the dawn prayer at the start of the day." I went out from there and gathered dates. When morning came, I came and presented the dates before the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "What is this? Is it charity or a gift?" I indicated that it was charity. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Take them to these people." His companions were with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) at that time. Those people ate it, but the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did not eat. I thought: "This is one sign." The next day I brought dates. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "What is this?" I said: "This is a gift." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) ate it and invited his companions, and they also ate it. Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) noticed that I wanted to see the Seal of Prophethood; he realised it and removed his sheet. I kissed the Seal of Prophethood and clung to him. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "What is the matter with you?" He asked me, and I told him about my whole situation. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "You made it a condition with them that you would be their slave, so now purchase yourself from them." Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) bought Sayyiduna Salman (may Allah be pleased with him) on the condition that Sayyiduna Salman (may Allah be pleased with him) would plant three hundred palm trees for those people and give forty uqiyah of gold, and then he would be counted free. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Plant the trees." He planted the trees. Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Go and lower the bucket into the well; then do not pull it up until it comes up by itself." When that bucket filled, it would come up by itself, and then the palm trees would be watered. Sayyiduna Salman (may Allah be pleased with him) kept doing so, and the palm trees sprouted very quickly. They said: "Subhan Allah! We have not seen anyone like this slave; this slave has a special standing." Then the people gathered around him, and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) gave him a piece of gold which was of forty uqiyah.
