'Abdu'r-Rahman ibn Razin said, "We passed by az-Zubda and were told, 'There is Salama ibn al-Akwa'. I went to him and he greeted us. Then he brought out his hands and stated, 'With these two hands I offered allegiance to the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace.' He held out his palm which was as huge as a camel's foot, and we got up and kissed it."
حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ رَزِينٍ قَالَ مَرَرْنَا بِالرَّبَذَةِ فَقِيلَ لَنَا هَا هُنَا سَلَمَةُ بْنُ الأَكْوَعِ فَأَتَيْنَاهُ فَسَلَّمْنَا عَلَيْهِ فَأَخْرَجَ يَدَيْهِ فَقَالَ بَايَعْتُ بِهَاتَيْنِ نَبِيَّ اللهِ ﷺ فَأَخْرَجَ كَفًّا لَهُ ضَخْمَةً كَأَنَّهَا كَفُّ بَعِيرٍ فَقُمْنَا إِلَيْهَا فَقَبَّلْنَاهَا
