Sayyiduna Jabir bin Samurah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I had the opportunity to sit in the company of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) more than a hundred times. His (peace and blessings be upon him) Companions would recite poetry to one another and recall things from the Days of Ignorance (Jahiliyyah), and he (peace and blessings be upon him) would sometimes smile along with them.
