حدثنا محمد بن عبد العزيز، قال‏:‏ حدثنا اسد بن موسى، قال‏:‏ حدثنا معاوية بن صالح قال‏:‏ حدثني ابو الزاهرية قال‏:‏ حدثني كثير بن مرة قال‏:‏ دخلت المسجد يوم الجمعة، فوجدت عوف بن مالك الاشجعي جالسا في حلقة مادا رجليه بين يديه، فلما رآني قبض رجليه، ثم قال لي‏:‏ تدري لاي شيء مددت رجلي‏؟‏ ليجيء رجل صالح فيجلس‏.‏
It is narrated from Kathir bin Murrah, may Allah have mercy on him, that I entered the mosque on the day of Jumu'ah and saw that Sayyiduna 'Awf bin Malik Ashja'i, may Allah be pleased with him, was sitting in a circle, and he had stretched his legs out in front of him. When he saw me, he drew his legs together, then said to me: Do you know why I had stretched out my legs? It was so that a righteous man might come and sit down.
