Hadith #87
Arabic Text
حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ أَخْبَرَنَا حَمَّادٌ عَنْ عَمَّارِ بْنِ أَبِي عَمَّارٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ يَخْطُبُ إِلَى جِذْعٍ
قَبْلَ أَنْ يَتَّخِذَ الْمِنْبَرَ فَلَمَّا اتَّخَذَ الْمِنْبَرَ وَتَحَوَّلَ إِلَيْهِ حَنَّ عَلَيْهِ فَأَتَاهُ فَاحْتَضَنَهُ فَسَكَنَ قَالَ وَلَوْ لَمْ أَحْتَضِنْهُ لَحَنَّ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ عَنْ ثَابِتٍ عَنْ أَنَسٍ عَنْ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِثْلَهُ

English Translation
'Affan narrated to us, Hammad informed us, from 'Ammar ibn Abi 'Ammar, from Ibn 'Abbas (رضي الله عنهما), that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to give sermons leaning against a tree trunk before the minbar was made. When the minbar was made and he moved to it, the trunk moaned for him. He went to it and embraced it, and it became calm. He said: "Had I not embraced it, it would have continued moaning until the Day of Judgment." 'Affan narrated to us, Hammad narrated to us, from Thabit, from Anas, from the Prophet ﷺ, a similar narration.
