حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُوسَى، حَدَّثَنَا عَبَّادُ بْنُ مُوسَى أَبُو أَيُّوبَ، حَدَّثَنَا يُونُسُ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مَسْلَمَةَ ؓ قَالَ:
مَرَرْتُ فَإِذَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَلَى الصَّفَا وَاضِعٌ خَدَّهُ عَلَى خَدِّ رَجُلٍ، فَذَهَبَ، فَلَمْ أَلْبَثْ أَنْ نَادَانِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَصَدْتُ لَهُ فَقَالَ: يَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنَ مَسْلَمَةَ، مَا مَنَعَكَ أَنْ تُسَلِّمَ ؟ قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، رَأَيْتُكَ فَعَلْتَ بِهَذَا الرَّجُلِ شَيْئًا، مَا فَعَلْتَهُ بِأَحَدٍ مِنَ النَّاسِ، فَكَرِهْتُ أَنْ أَقْطَعَ عَلَيْكَ حَدِيثَكَ، فَمَنْ ذَلِكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ؟ قَالَ ﷺ: جِبْرِيلُ، أَمَا إِنَّهُ لَوْ سَلَّمْتَ لَرَدَدْنَا عَلَيْكَ، قَالَ: وَمَا قَالَ لَكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ؟ قَالَ ﷺ: لَمْ يَزَلْ يُوصِينِي بِالْجَارِ، حَتَّى كُنْتُ أَنْتَظِرُ أَنَّهُ يَأْمُرُنِي أَنْ يُوَرِّثَهُ

✧ I passed by and found the Messenger of Allah ﷺ on al-Ṣafā with his cheek against the cheek of a man. Then he left. Soon after, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ called me, so I went straight to him. He said: 'O Muḥammad b. Maslamah, what prevented you from greeting?' I said: 'O Messenger of Allah, I saw you do something with that man that you had not done with anyone else, and I disliked interrupting your conversation. Who was that, O Messenger of Allah?' He ﷺ said: 'Jibrīl. If you had greeted, we would have returned your greeting.' He said: 'And what did he say to you, O Messenger of Allah?' He ﷺ said: 'He kept enjoining me [to be kind] to the neighbor until I expected him to command me to make him an heir.'
