A group came to Zayd bin Thabit (may Allah be pleased with him) and said: Tell us a hadith about the character of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). Zayd bin Thabit (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I was his (peace and blessings be upon him) neighbour. When revelation came down, he (peace and blessings be upon him) would send for me, and I would write down the revelation. When we spoke of this world, he (peace and blessings be upon him) would speak of it with us; when we remembered the Hereafter, he (peace and blessings be upon him) would do so too; and when we spoke of food, he (peace and blessings be upon him) would do so too. All these things we narrate to you about him (peace and blessings be upon him).
