It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to deliver sermons while leaning on a wooden post. When the pulpit was made and the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) sat upon it, that piece of wood began to weep like a she-camel. So the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) placed his blessed hand upon it, and it became quiet.
