Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أَحْمَدَ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنِ الْأَسْوَدِ بْنِ قَيْسٍ عَنْ نُبَيْحٍ عَنْ جَابِرٍ قَالَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذَا خَرَجَ مِنْ بَيْتِهِ مَشَيْنَا قُدَّامَهُ وَتَرَكْنَا ظَهْرَهُ لِلْمَلَائِكَةِ.
English Translation
Abu Ahmad told us, Sufyan told us, from al-Aswad ibn Qays, from Nubayh, from Jabir, he said: When the Messenger of God, peace and blessings be upon him, went out from his house, we would walk in front of him and leave his back for the angels.
