It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to deliver the sermon every Friday leaning against a wooden pillar, until a man from Rome came to him (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: "If you (peace and blessings be upon him) wish, I will make for you (peace and blessings be upon him) something such that when you (peace and blessings be upon him) sit on it, you (peace and blessings be upon him) will appear (to everyone) as though you are standing?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Yes." So that man made the pulpit for him (peace and blessings be upon him). Then, when he (peace and blessings be upon him) sat on it, that wooden pillar began to weep and wail just as a she-camel yearns in separation from her young, until the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) came down from the pulpit and placed his blessed hand on it. Then, when the next day came, I saw that it had been moved (from its original place). We asked: "What is this?" We were told: "The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), Sayyiduna Abu Bakr and Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) came and together they moved it from there."
