حَدَّثَنَا خَلاَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَاحِدِ بْنُ أَيْمَنَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ؓ
أَنَّ امْرَأَةً مِنَ الأَنْصَارِ قَالَتْ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَلاَ أَجْعَلُ لَكَ شَيْئًا تَقْعُدُ عَلَيْهِ فَإِنَّ لِي غُلاَمًا نَجَّارًا قَالَ إِنْ شِئْتِ قَالَ فَعَمِلَتْ لَهُ الْمِنْبَرَ فَلَمَّا كَانَ يَوْمُ الْجُمُعَةِ قَعَدَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ الَّذِي صُنِعَ فَصَاحَتِ النَّخْلَةُ الَّتِي كَانَ يَخْطُبُ عِنْدَهَا حَتَّى كَادَتْ أَنْ تَنْشَقَّ فَنَزَلَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ حَتَّى أَخَذَهَا فَضَمَّهَا إِلَيْهِ فَجَعَلَتْ تَئِنُّ أَنِينَ الصَّبِيِّ الَّذِي يُسَكَّتُ حَتَّى اسْتَقَرَّتْ قَالَ بَكَتْ عَلَى مَا كَانَتْ تَسْمَعُ مِنَ الذِّكْرِ

An Ansari woman said to Messenger of Allah ﷺ, "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! 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 ﷺ sat on that pulpit. The date-palm stem near which the Prophet ﷺ used to deliver his sermons cried so much so that it was about to burst. The Prophet ﷺ 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 ﷺ said,"It has cried because of (missing) what it use to hear of the religions knowledge."
