[Machine] "So he continued on until he reached the graves, and then he alighted from his horse. He said, 'I saw the people of the graves, every owner of a grave sitting on his grave.' They said, 'This is Mudarrif who comes on Fridays.' He said, 'Do you know what day Friday is?' They said, 'Yes, and we know what the birds say on it.' He said, 'And what do the birds say?' They said, 'They say, "Peace, peace from a righteous day."'"  

الزهد لأحمد:١٣٧٧حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدِ بْنِ حَسَّانَ حَدَّثَنَا جَعْفَرٌ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو التَّيَّاحِ قَالَ كَانَ مُطَرِّفُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ يَبْدُو فَإِذَا كَانَ لَيْلَةُ الْجُمُعَةِ أَدْلَجَ عَلَى فَرَسِهِ قَالَ فَرُبَّمَا نُورٌ لَهُ فِي سَوْطِهِ قَالَ
