(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَامِرٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ أَبِي الْمَوَالِي ، حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ أَبِي عَمْرَةَ الْأَنْصَارِيُّ ، قَالَ : أُخْبِرَ أَبُو سَعِيدٍ بِجِنَازَةٍ ، فَعَادَ تَخَلَّفَ ، حَتَّى إِذَا أَخَذَ النَّاسُ مَجَالِسَهُمْ ، ثُمَّ جَاءَ فَلَمَّا رَآهُ الْقَوْمُ تَشَذَّبُوا عَنْهُ فَقَامَ بَعْضُهُمْ لِيَجْلِسَ فِي مَجْلِسِهِ ، فَقَالَ : لَا ، إِنِّي سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ : " إِنَّ خَيْرَ الْمَجَالِسِ أَوْسَعُهَا ، ثُمَّ تَنَحَّى وَجَلَسَ فِي مَجْلِسٍ وَاسِعٍ " .
Hazrat Abdur Rahman bin Abi Amrah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that once Hazrat Abu Saeed (may Allah be pleased with him) was informed about a funeral. When he arrived, people had already settled in their places. Seeing him, people began to move from their spots and some stood up so that he could sit in their place. But he said, "No, I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say that the best gathering is the one which is more spacious." Then he went and sat in a spacious place in another corner.
