باب من فضائل جرير بن عبد الله رضي الله عنه
Virtues of Jarir ibn Abdullah
Hadith Number: 1608
1608 صحيح حديث جرير رضي الله عنه، قال: ما حجبني النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم منذ اسلمت، ولا رآني إلا تبسم في وجهي ولقد شكوت إليه اني لا اثبت على الخيل، فضرب بيده في صدري، وقال: اللهم ثبته واجعله هاديا مهديا
Hazrat Jarir bin Abdullah Bajali (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that since I embraced Islam, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) never prevented me (with a curtain) from entering his house, and whenever he saw me, he would smile happily. Once, I complained to him that I could not sit firmly on horseback, so he struck his blessed hand on my chest and prayed: O Allah! Make him firm on horseback, make him a guide for others to the right path, and keep him himself steadfast on the right path.
