English narration
Narrated by أبو ذر الغفاري
Narrated Abu Dharr: Ayyub ibn Bushayr ibn Kab al-Adawi quoted a man of Anazah who said that he asked Abu Dharr when he left Syria: I wish to ask you about a tradition of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. He said: I shall tell you except that it is something secret. Did the Messenger of Allah ﷺ shake hands with you when you met him? He replied: I never met him without his shaking hands with me. One day he sent for me when I was not at home. When I came I was informed that he had sent for me. I came to him and found him on a couch. He embraced me and that was better and better.

حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيل , حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ , أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو الْحُسَيْنِ يَعْنِي خَالِدَ بْنَ ذَكْوَانَ , عَنْ أَيُّوبَ بْنِ بُشَيْرِ بْنِ كَعْبٍ الْعَدَوِيِّ , عَنْ رَجُلٍ مِنْ عَنَزَةَ , أَنَّهُ قَالَ لِأَبِي ذَرٍّ : حَيْثُ سُيِّرَ مِنْ الشَّامِ : إِنِّي أُرِيدُ أَنْ أَسْأَلَكَ عَنْ حَدِيثٍ مِنْ حَدِيثِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ , قَالَ : إِذًا أُخْبِرُكَ بِهِ إِلَّا أَنْ يَكُونَ سِرًّا , قُلْتُ : إِنَّهُ لَيْسَ بِسِرٍّ , هَلْ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُصَافِحُكُمْ إِذَا لَقِيتُمُوهُ ؟ قَالَ : مَا لَقِيتُهُ قَطُّ إِلَّا صَافَحَنِي , وَبَعَثَ إِلَيَّ ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ وَلَمْ أَكُنْ فِي أَهْلِي , فَلَمَّا جِئْتُ , أُخْبِرْتُ أَنَّهُ أَرْسَلَ لِي , فَأَتَيْتُهُ وَهُوَ عَلَى سَرِيرِهِ , فَالْتَزَمَنِي , فَكَانَتْ تِلْكَ أَجْوَدَ وَأَجْوَدَ " .
