It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him), he says: I used to serve the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and then I would come to the mosque and, after finishing my work, I would lie down. One day, while I was lying down, the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) came to me. He pressed me a little with his blessed foot, so I sat up straight. He said: "Abu Dharr! What will your condition be when you are expelled from this city?" I said: "I will stay in the mosque of my Prophet and in my house." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "When you are expelled from here, what will your condition be?" I said: "I will draw my sword and whoever expels me, I will strike him with my sword." The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) placed his blessed hand on my shoulder and said: "Abu Dharr! Forgive (them)." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) repeated this sentence three times and then said: "Rather, wherever they take you, obey them, and wherever they drive you, go in that direction, even if it is a black slave." Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him) says: When I was driven towards Rabadhah and the call to prayer for prayer was given, a black man stepped forward to lead the prayer; he was in charge of the treasury's camels there. When he saw me, he began to step back to let me lead, but I said to him: "Stay in your place (and lead the prayer); I will obey the command of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)."
