[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "I know of a tree that benefits a believer, which is the tree whose leaves do not fall." Ibn Umar said, "I intended to say it is the date-palm tree, so I left Umar's company. Later, I heard him saying it is the date-palm tree."  

أحمد:٥٩٥٥حَدَّثَنَا أَسْوَدُ حَدَّثَنَا شَرِيكٌ سَمِعْتُ سَلَمَةَ بْنَ كُهَيْلٍ يَذْكُرُ عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ
