Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ بْنُ عَمْرٍو حَدَّثَنَا مَجْمَعُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ مِنْ أَهْلِ قُبَاءَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ أَنَّ بَعْضَ أَهْلِهِ قَالَ لِجَدِّهِ مِنْ قِبَلِ أُمِّهِ وَهُوَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ أَبِي حَبِيبَةَ مَا أَدْرَكْتَ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ أَتَانَا فِي مَسْجِدِنَا هَذَا فَجِئْتُ فَجَلَسْتُ إِلَى جَنْبِهِ فَأُتِيَ بِشَرَابٍ فَشَرِبَ ثُمَّ نَاوَلَنِي وَأَنَا عَنْ يَمِينِهِ قَالَ وَرَأَيْتُهُ يَوْمَئِذٍ صَلَّى فِي نَعْلَيْهِ وَأَنَا يَوْمَئِذٍ غُلَامٌ.
English Translation
Abd al-Malik ibn Amr told us, Majma' ibn Ya'qub, from the people of Quba, told us, he said: Muhammad ibn Isma'il told me, that some of his family said to his maternal grandfather, who was Abdullah ibn Abi Habibah, "What did you witness of the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him?" He said: "He came to us in this mosque of ours, so I came and sat beside him. Then a drink was brought to him, and he drank, then handed it to me, and I was on his right." He said: "And I saw him that day praying in his sandals, and I was a young boy that day."
