Abu Hazim narrates that people came to Hazrat Sahl bin Sa’d and asked,“What was the pulpit of the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) made of?”He replied,“No one remains who knows more about it than I do.”He said,“It was made from the wood of the jungle tamarisk tree, and it was prepared for the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) by such-and-such person, the freed slave of such-and-such woman. The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) used to lean against a pillar of the mosque, and when he delivered the sermon, he would turn towards it and pray. When the pulpit was prepared and he sat on it, that pillar began to weep. So the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) came to it and placed it in the ground until it became calm. And in Abu Hazim’s narration, the words ‘fa-watadahu’ (he fixed it) are not present.”
