٣٣٩١٠ - حدثنا وكيع عن عبد الواحد عن أبيه عن جابر قال: كان رسول اللَّه ﷺ يخطب إلى جذع نخلة، فقالت له امرأة من الأنصار: يا رسول اللَّه، إن لي غلامًا نجارًا، أفلا آمره يصنع لك منبرًا؟ قال: "بلى"، فاتخذ منبرًا فلما كان يوم الجمعة ⦗٤٥٩⦘ خطب على المنبر، قال: فأنَّ الجذع الذي كان يقوم عليه (كما يئن) (١) الصبي، فقال النبي ﷺ (٢): "إن هذا بكى لما فقد من الذكر" (٣).
Hazrat Jabir narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) used to deliver the sermon while leaning against the trunk of a date-palm tree. So, an Ansari woman said, "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! I have a slave carpenter; should I not order him to make a pulpit for you?" He replied, "Why not?" So she had a pulpit made. When Friday came, the Prophet delivered the sermon from the pulpit. The trunk which he used to lean against began to weep like a child. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said that it began to weep because the remembrance (dhikr) had ceased to be made near it.
