حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَاحِدِ بْنُ أَيْمَنَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ، قَالَ: كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَخْطُبُ إِلَى جِذْعِ نَخْلَةٍ، قَالَ: فَقَالَتْ امْرَأَةٌ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ كَانَ لَهَا غُلَامٌ نَجَّارٌ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، إِنَّ لِي غُلَامًا نَجَّارًا، أَفَلَا آمُرُهُ أَنْ (١) يَتَّخِذَ لَكَ مِنْبَرًا تَخْطُبُ عَلَيْهِ؟ قَالَ: " بَلَى "، قَالَ: فَاتَّخَذَ لَهُ مِنْبَرًا، قَالَ: فَلَمَّا كَانَ يَوْمُ الْجُمُعَةِ خَطَبَ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ، قَالَ: فَأَنَّ الْجِذْعُ الَّذِي كَانَ يَقُومُ عَلَيْهِ كَمَا يَئِنُّ الصَّبِيُّ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " إِنَّ هَذَا بَكَى لِمَا فَقَدَ مِنَ الذِّكْرِ " (٢)، ،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (ﷺ) used to deliver sermons while leaning against the trunk of a date-palm tree. An Ansari woman, whose slave was a carpenter, said, "O Messenger of Allah! My slave is a carpenter. Should I not order him to make a pulpit for you so that you may deliver sermons upon it?" The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Why not?" Thus, the pulpit was prepared, and on Friday, when the Prophet (ﷺ) sat on it to deliver the sermon, the pillar against which he used to lean began to cry like a child. The Prophet (ﷺ) said that it was crying because the remembrance of Allah had been lost from its presence.
