[Machine] When the Prophet ﷺ arrived in Medina, he leaned his back against a wooden board and started talking to the people. They gathered around him, so the Prophet ﷺ wanted them to hear him well. He said, "Build something for me to stand on." They asked, "O Prophet of Allah, how should we build it?" He said, "Build it like the Arish of Musa (Moses), so they built it for him." Al-Hasan said, "By Allah, the wooden board became honored." Al-Hasan said, "Glory be to Allah, is the seeking of the hearts of the people through hearing?" Abu Muhammad (Imam Malik) means this.  

أَنْ قَدِمَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ الْمَدِينَةَ جَعَلَ يُسْنِدُ ظَهْرَهُ إِلَى خَشَبَةٍ وَيُحَدِّثُ النَّاسَ فَكَثُرُوا حَوْلَهُ فَأَرَادَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ أَنْ يُسْمِعَهُمْ فَقَالَ «ابْنُوا لِي شَيْئًا أَرْتَفِعُ عَلَيْهِ» قَالُوا كَيْفَ يَا نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ؟ قَالَ «عَرِيشٌ كَعَرِيشِ مُوسَى فَلَمَّا أَنْ بَنَوْا لَهُ» قَالَ الْحَسَنُ حَنَّتْ وَاللَّهِ الْخَشَبَةُ قَالَ الْحَسَنُ سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ هَلْ تُبْتَغَى قُلُوبُ قَوْمٍ سَمِعُوا؟ قَالَ أَبُو مُحَمَّدٍ يَعْنِي هَذَا
