Hadith 544
حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ يَحْيَى ، وَقُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ كلاهما ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ ، قَالَ يَحْيَى : أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ أَبِي حَازِمٍ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، أَنَّ نَفَرًا ، جَاءُوا إِلَى سَهْلِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ ، قَدْ تَمَارَوْا فِي الْمِنْبَرِ مِنْ أَيِّ عُودٍ هُوَ ، فَقَالَ : أَمَا وَاللَّهِ ، إِنِّي لَأَعْرِفُ مِنْ أَيِّ عُودٍ هُوَ وَمَنْ عَمِلَهُ ، وَرَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، أَوَّلَ يَوْمٍ جَلَسَ عَلَيْهِ ، قَالَ : فَقُلْتُ لَهُ : يَا أَبَا عَبَّاسٍ ، فَحَدِّثْنَا ، قَالَ : أَرْسَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، إِلَى امْرَأَةٍ ، قَالَ أَبُو حَازِمٍ : إِنَّهُ لَيُسَمِّهَا يَوْمَئِذٍ ، انْظُرِي غُلَامَكِ النَّجَّارَ ، يَعْمَلْ لِي أَعْوَادًا ، أُكَلِّمُ النَّاسَ عَلَيْهَا ، فَعَمِلَ هَذِهِ الثَّلَاثَ دَرَجَاتٍ ، ثُمَّ أَمَرَ بِهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَوُضِعَتْ هَذَا الْمَوْضِعَ ، فَهِيَ مِنْ طَرْفَاءِ الْغَابَةِ ، " وَلَقَدْ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَامَ عَلَيْهِ ، فَكَبَّرَ ، وَكَبَّرَ النَّاسُ وَرَاءَهُ وَهُوَ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ ، ثُمَّ رَفَعَ ، فَنَزَلَ الْقَهْقَرَى ، حَتَّى سَجَدَ فِي أَصْلِ الْمِنْبَرِ ، ثُمَّ عَادَ ، حَتَّى فَرَغَ مِنْ آخِرِ صَلَاتِهِ ، ثُمَّ أَقْبَلَ عَلَى النَّاسِ " ، فَقَالَ : " يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ ، إِنِّي صَنَعْتُ هَذَا لِتَأْتَمُّوا بِي وَلِتَعَلَّموا صَلَاتِي ،
Abu Hazim is reported on the authority of his father: Some people came to Sahl bin Sa'd and began to differ about the wood of which the (Prophet's pulpit was made. He (Sahl bin Sa'd) said: By Allah, I know of which wood it is made and who made it, and the day when I saw the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) seated himself on it on the first day. I said to him: O Abu Abbas (kunyah of Sabl bin Sa'd), narrate to us (all these facts), He said: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) sent a person to a woman asking her to allow her slave, a carpenter, to work on woods (to prepare a pulpit) so that I should talk to the people (sitting on it). Abu Hazim said: He (Sahl bin Sa'd) pointed out the name of (that lady) that day. So he (the carpenter) made (a pulpit) with these three steps. Then the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) commanded it to be placed here (where it is lying now). It was fashioned out of the wood of al-Ghaba. And I saw the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) (may peace he upon him) standing upon it and glorifying Allah and the people also glorified Allah after him, while he was on the pulpit. He then raised (his head from prostration) and stepped back (on his heels) till he prostrated himself at the base of pulpit, and then returned (to the former place and this movement of one or two steps continued) till the prayer was complete. He then turned towards the people and said: O people, I have done it so that you should follow me and learn (my mode of) prayer.

Narrated to us Qutaybah ibn Sa‘id, narrated to us Ya‘qub ibn ‘Abd al-Rahman ibn Muhammad ibn ‘Abd Allah ibn ‘Abd al-Qari al-Qurashi, narrated to me Abu Hazim, that some men came to Sahl ibn Sa‘d. He said: And narrated to us Abu Bakr ibn Abi Shaybah, and Zuhayr ibn Harb, and Ibn Abi ‘Umar, they said: Narrated to us Sufyan ibn ‘Uyaynah, from Abu Hazim, he said: They came to Sahl ibn Sa‘d and asked him, "From what was the pulpit of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, made?" And they narrated the hadith similar to the hadith of Ibn Abi Hazim.
