Al-Adab Al-Mufrad — Hadith #47653

Sa`id bin Abi Maryam told us, he said: Muhammad bin Ja`far told us, on the authority of Sharik bin Abdullah, on the authority of Sa`id bin al-Musayyab, on the authority of Abu Musa Al-Ash'ari said: The Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, went out one day to one of the walls of the city for his need, and I went out after him, and when he entered I sat at its door and said: Today I will be the doorman of the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace. He did not order me to, so the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, went and relieved himself and sat on the He stopped at the well, uncovered his legs, and led them into the well. Then Abu Bakr, may God be pleased with him, came to ask permission. He asked him to enter, so I said: As you are until I ask permission for you, so he stopped, and I came to the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, and I said: O Messenger of God, Abu Bakr is asking for permission. What do you have to do? So he said: Give him permission and give him good news of Paradise. So he entered and came to the right of the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, and revealed his legs. And he let them into the well. Then Omar came, and I said: As you are, until I give you permission. So the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, said: Give him permission, and give him good news. In Paradise, then Omar came to the left of the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, uncovered his legs and let them enter the well, and the pit was filled, but there was no one in it. A council. Then Othman came, and I said: As you are until I ask permission for you. Then the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, said: Give him permission, and give him good tidings of Paradise with it. An affliction befell him, so he entered and did not find a place to sit with them, so he turned around until he came facing them at the edge of the well, so he uncovered his legs and then He guided them into the well, and I began to hope that my brother would come, and I prayed to God to bring him, but he did not come until they got up.
