حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ إِسْحَاقُ أَنْبَأَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْأَصْبَهَانِيِّ ثنا شَرِيكٌ عَنْ سِمَاكٍ عَنْ أَبِي ظَبْيَانَ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ
جَاءَ أَعْرَابِيٌّ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ بِمَ أَعْرِفُ أَنَّكَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ فَقَالَ «أَرَأَيْتَ إِنْ دَعَوْتُ هَذَا الْعِذْقَ مِنْ هَذِهِ النَّخْلَةِ أَتَشْهَدُ أَنِّي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ؟» قَالَ نَعَمْ قَالَ فَدَعَا الْعِذْقَ فَجَعَلَ الْعِذْقُ يَنْزِلُ مِنَ النَّخْلَةِ حَتَّى سَقَطَ فِي الْأَرْضِ فَجَعَلَ يَنْقُزُ حَتَّى أَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ ثُمَّ قَالَ لَهُ «ارْجِعْ» فَرَجَعَ حَتَّى عَادَ إِلَى مَكَانِهِ

✧ A bedouin came to the Prophet ﷺ and said, 'By what do I know that you are the Messenger of Allah?' He said, 'What do you think? If I call this date stalk from this palm tree, will you testify that I am the Messenger of Allah?' He said, 'Yes.' He said, 'Then he called the date stalk, and the date stalk began to descend from the palm tree until it fell to the ground, then it began to hop until it came to the Prophet ﷺ.' He said, 'Then he said to it, "Return," and it returned until it went back to its place.'
