Al-Matalib al-'Aliyah 3079 — Travelling in pursuit of knowledge

وَقَالَ الْحَارِثُ : حَدَّثَنَا كَثِيرُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ ، ثَنَا جَعْفَرٌ هُوَ ابْنُ بُرْقَانَ ، ثَنَا يَحْيَى أَبُو هِشَامٍ الدِّمَشْقِيُّ قَالَ : جَاءَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْمَدِينَةِ إِلَى مِصْرَ ، فَقَالَ لِحَاجِبِ أَمِيرِهَا : قُلْ لِلْأَمِيرِ يَخْرُجْ إِلَيَّ ، فَقَالَ الْحَاجِبُ : مَا قَالَ لَنَا أَحَدٌ هَذَا مُنْذُ نَزَلْنَا هَذَا الْمَنْزِلَ غَيْرُكَ ، إِنَّمَا كَانَ يُقَالُ : اسْتَأْذِنْ لَنَا عَلَى الْأَمِيرِ ، فَقَالَ : ايتِهِ فَقُلْ لَهُ : هَذَا فُلَانٌ بِالْبَابِ ، فَخَرَجَ إِلَيْهِ الْأَمِيرُ ، فَقَالَ : إِنَّمَا أَتَيْتُكَ أَسْأَلُكَ عَنْ حَدِيثٍ ( فِي سُتْرَةِ عَوْرَةِ مُسْلِمٍ ) .
It is narrated from Yahya Abu Hisham al-Dimashqi that a man from the people of Madinah came to Egypt and said to the doorkeeper of its governor: "Tell the governor to come out to me." The doorkeeper said (in surprise): "Since we settled in this place, no one but you has said such a thing to us; people only ever say: 'Seek permission for us to be admitted to the governor.'" At this the man said again: "Go to him and just tell him that so-and-so is at the door." So the governor (on hearing this) came out to him himself, and the man said: "I have come to you only to ask you about the hadith concerning concealing the faults of a Muslim and covering him."
