Musnad Ahmad

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Rimthah (may Allah be pleased with him) that I went with my father to the service of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). When I saw him, my father asked, "Do you know who this is?" I said, "No." My father told me, "This is the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)." Upon hearing this, my hair stood on end. I used to think of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) as something not resembling humans, but he was a perfect human being. He had long hair, and there was a trace of henna on his blessed head. He was wearing two green garments. My father greeted him with salam and sat down to talk. After a little while, the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked my father, "Is this your son?" He said, "Yes, by the Lord of the Ka'bah." The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Really?" He said, "I bear witness to it." At this, the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) smiled, because my appearance resembled my father, and then my father also swore an oath to it. Then the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Remember, he is not responsible for any of your sins, and you are not responsible for any of his sins." And he recited this verse: "No person will bear the burden of another." Then my father saw a raised part between the two shoulders of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said, "O Messenger of Allah! I am considered a great physician among the people. Should I treat you and (remove) it?" The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Its healer is the One who created it."
