Ash-Shama'il Al-Muhammadiyah — Hadith #47979

Ali ibn Hujr told us: Sharik told us, on the authority of Simak ibn Harb, on the authority of Jabir ibn Samurah, who said: I sat with the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, more than one hundred times, and his companions would recite poetry to one another and discuss matters from the pre-Islamic era, while he remained silent and sometimes smiled with them.
