حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو نُعَيْمٍ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَاحِدِ بْنُ أَيْمَنَ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبِي عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ؓ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ
كَانَ يَقُومُ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ إِلَى شَجَرَةٍ أَوْ نَخْلَةٍ فَقَالَتِ امْرَأَةٌ مِنَ الأَنْصَارِ أَوْ رَجُلٌ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَلاَ نَجْعَلُ لَكَ مِنْبَرًا قَالَ إِنْ شِئْتُمْ فَجَعَلُوا لَهُ مِنْبَرًا فَلَمَّا كَانَ يَوْمُ الْجُمُعَةِ دُفِعَ إِلَى الْمِنْبَرِ فَصَاحَتِ النَّخْلَةُ صِيَاحَ الصَّبِيِّ ثُمَّ نَزَلَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَضَمَّهُ إِلَيْهِ تَئِنُّ أَنِينَ الصَّبِيِّ الَّذِي يُسَكَّنُ قَالَ كَانَتْ تَبْكِي عَلَى مَا كَانَتْ تَسْمَعُ مِنَ الذِّكْرِ عِنْدَهَا

The Prophet ﷺ used to stand by a tree or a date-palm on Friday. Then an Ansari woman or man said. "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! Shall we make a pulpit for you?" He replied, "If you wish." So they made a pulpit for him and when it was Friday, he proceeded towards the pulpit (for delivering the sermon). The datepalm cried like a child! The Prophet ﷺ descended (the pulpit) and embraced it while it continued moaning like a child being quietened. The Prophet ﷺ said, "It was crying for (missing) what it used to hear of religious knowledge given near to it."
