Arabic Text
حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ أَبِي زِيَادٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ قَالَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَصُفُّ عَبْدَ الل
َّهِ وَعُبَيْدَ اللَّهِ وَكَثِيرًا مِنْ بَنِي الْعَبَّاسِ ثُمَّ يَقُولُ مَنْ سَبَقَ إِلَيَّ فَلَهُ كَذَا وَكَذَا قَالَ فَيَسْتَبِقُونَ إِلَيْهِ فَيَقَعُونَ عَلَى ظَهْرِهِ وَصَدْرِهِ فَيُقَبِّلُهُمْ وَيَلْزَمُهُمْ

English Translation
Jarir narrated to us, from Yazid ibn Abi Ziyad, from 'Abdullah ibn al-Harith, who said: "the Messenger of Allah ﷺ would line up 'Abdullah, 'Ubaydullah, and Kathir from the sons of al-'Abbas, then he would say: 'Whoever reaches me first shall have such-and-such.' So they would race to him and fall on his back and chest, and he would kiss them and embrace them."
