حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ حَجَّاجٍ الصَّوَّافِ حَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى بْنُ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ حَدَّثَنِي هِلَالُ بْنُ أَبِي مَيْمُونَةَ عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ السُّلَمِيِّ قَالَ
صَلَّيْتُ مَعَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ: فَعَطَسَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْقَوْمِ، فَقُلْتُ: يَرْحَمُكَ اللهُ، فَرَمَانِي الْقَوْمُ بِأَبْصَارِهِمْ، فَقُلْتُ: وَاثُكْلَ أُمِّيَاهْ، مَا شَأْنُكُمْ تَنْظُرُونَ إِلَيَّ ؟ قَالَ: فَجَعَلُوا يَضْرِبُونَ بِأَيْدِيهِمْ عَلَى أَفْخَاذِهِمْ، فَعَرَفْتُ أَنَّهُمْ يُصَمِّتُونِي، لَكِنِّي سَكَتُّ، فَلَمَّا قَضَى النَّبِيُّ ﷺ الصَّلَاةَ، بِأَبِي هُوَ وَأُمِّي، مَا شَتَمَنِي وَلَا كَهَرَنِي وَلَا ضَرَبَنِي، فَقَالَ: إِنَّ هَذِهِ الصَّلَاةَ لَا يَصْلُحُ فِيهَا شَيْءٌ مِنْ كَلَامِ النَّاسِ هَذَا، إِنَّمَا هِيَ التَّسْبِيحُ وَالتَّكْبِيرُ وَقِرَاءَةُ الْقُرْآنِ، أَوْ كَمَا قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ. قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، إِنَّا قَوْمٌ حَدِيثُ عَهْدٍ بِجَاهِلِيَّةٍ، وَقَدْ جَاءَ اللهُ بِالْإِسْلَامِ وَمِنَّا رِجَالٌ يَأْتُونَ الْكُهَّانَ، قَالَ: فَلَا تَأْتِهُمْ. قُلْتُ: وَمِنَّا رِجَالٌ يَتَطَيَّرُونَ، قَالَ: فَإِنَّ ذَاكَ شَيْءٌ يَجِدُونَهُ فِي صُدُورِهِمْ، فَلَا يَصُدَّنَّهُمْ، قُلْتُ: وَمِنَّا رِجَالٌ يَخُطُّونَ، قَالَ: كَانَ نَبِيٌّ مِنَ الْأَنْبِيَاءِ يَخُطُّ فَمَنْ وَافَقَ خَطَّهُ فَذَاكَ. قَالَ: وَبَيْنَمَا جَارِيَةٌ لِي تَرْعَى غُنَيْمَاتٍ لِي فِي قِبَلِ أُحُدٍ وَالْجَوَّانِيَّةِ، فَاطَّلَعْتُ عَلَيْهَا اطِّلَاعَةً، فَإِذَا الذِّئْبُ قَدْ ذَهَبَ مِنْهَا بِشَاةٍ، وَأَنَا رَجُلٌ مِنْ بَنِي آدَمَ يَأْسَفُ كَمَا يَأْسَفُونَ، لَكِنِّي صَكَكْتُهَا صَكَّةً، قَالَ: فَعَظُمَ ذَلِكَ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ، قُلْتُ: أَلَا أُعْتِقُهَا ؟ قَالَ: ابْعَثْ إِلَيْهَا قَالَ: فَأَرْسَلَ إِلَيْهَا فَجَاءَ بِهَا، فَقَالَ: أَيْنَ اللهُ ؟ قَالَتْ: فِي السَّمَاءِ، قَالَ: فَمَنْ أَنَا ؟ قَالَتْ: أَنْتَ رَسُولُ اللهِ، قَالَ: أَعْتِقْهَا فَإِنَّهَا مُؤْمِنَةٌ

I was praying with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. A man in the company sneezed, and I said: May Allah have mercy on you! The people gave me disapproving looks, so I said: Woe is to me! What do you mean by looking at me? They began to strike their hand on their thighs; then I realised that they were urging me to be silent. When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ finished his prayer – for whom I would give my father and mother as ransom-he did not beat, scold or revile me, but said: No talk to people in lawful in this prayer, for it consists only in glorifying Allah, declaring His greatness, and reciting the Qur'an or words to that effect said by the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. I said: Messenger of Allah, we were only recently pagans, but Allah has brought Islam to us, and among us there are men who have recourse to soothsayers (kahins). He replied: Do not have recourse to them. I said: Among us are there are men who take omens. He replied: That is something which they find, but let it not turn them away (from what they intended to do). I said: among us there are men who draw lines. He replied: There was a prophet who drew lines; so if the line of anyone tallies with this line, that might come true. I said: A slave-girl of mine used to tend goats before (the mountain) Uhud and al-Jawaniyyah. Once when I reached her (suddenly) I found that a wolf had taken away a goat of them. I am a human being; I feel grieved as others do. But I gave her a good knocking. This was unbearable for the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. I asked: Should I set her free ? He replied: Bring her to me. So I brought her to him. He asked (her): Where is Allah ? She said: In the heaven. He said: Who am I ? She replied: You are the Messenger of Allah. He said: Set her free, for she is believer.
