حَدَّثَنَا خَلَّادُ بْنُ يَحْيَی حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَاحِدِ بْنُ أَيْمَنَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا أَنَّ امْرَأَةً مِنْ الْأَنْصَارِ قَالَتْ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَلَا أَجْعَلُ لَکَ شَيْئًا تَقْعُدُ عَلَيْهِ فَإِنَّ لِي غُلَامًا نَجَّارًا قَالَ إِنْ شِئْتِ قَالَ فَعَمِلَتْ لَهُ الْمِنْبَرَ فَلَمَّا کَانَ يَوْمُ الْجُمُعَةِ قَعَدَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَلَی الْمِنْبَرِ الَّذِي صُنِعَ فَصَاحَتْ النَّخْلَةُ الَّتِي کَانَ يَخْطُبُ عِنْدَهَا حَتَّی کَادَتْ تَنْشَقُّ فَنَزَلَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حَتَّی أَخَذَهَا فَضَمَّهَا إِلَيْهِ فَجَعَلَتْ تَئِنُّ أَنِينَ الصَّبِيِّ الَّذِي يُسَکَّتُ حَتَّی اسْتَقَرَّتْ قَالَ بَکَتْ عَلَی مَا کَانَتْ تَسْمَعُ مِنْ الذِّکْرِ
صحیح بخاری · Hadith 2095
Narrated Jabir bin `Abdullah: An Ansari woman said to Allah's Apostle, "O Allah's Apostle! Shall I make something for you to sit on, as I have a slave who is a carpenter?" He replied, "If you wish." So, she got a pulpit made for him. When it was Friday the Prophet sat on that pulpit. The date-palm stem near which the Prophet used to deliver his sermons cried so much so that it was about to burst. The Prophet came down from the pulpit to the stem and embraced it and it started groaning like a child being persuaded to stop crying and then it stopped crying. The Prophet said,"It has cried because of (missing) what it use to hear of the religions knowledge."
