حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَي بْنُ يَحْيَي ، وَأَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ ، وَاللَّفْظُ لِيَحْيَي ، قَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ : حَدَّثَنَا ، وقَالَ يَحْيَي : أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ ، عَنْ عَاصِمٍ الْأَحْوَلِ ، عَنْ مُوَرِّقٍ الْعِجْلِيِّ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ ، قَالَ : " كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذَا قَدِمَ مِنْ سَفَرٍ تُلُقِّيَ بِصِبْيَانِ أَهْلِ بَيْتِهِ ، قَالَ : وَإِنَّهُ قَدِمَ مِنْ سَفَرٍ ، فَسُبِقَ بِي إِلَيْهِ فَحَمَلَنِي بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ ، ثُمَّ جِيءَ بِأَحَدِ ابْنَيْ فَاطِمَةَ ، فَأَرْدَفَهُ خَلْفَهُ ، قَالَ : فَأُدْخِلْنَا الْمَدِينَةَ ثَلَاثَةً عَلَى دَابَّةٍ " .
Abdullah bin Ja'far reported that when Allah's Messenger (may peace be, upon him) came back from a journey, the children of his family used to accord him welcome. It was in this way that once he came back from a journey and I went to him first of all. He mounted me before him. Then there came one of the two sons of Fatima and he mounted him behind him and this is how we three entered Madinah riding on a beast.
