[Machine] "O Messenger of Allah, allow me to remove my two braids, Suhaib ibn 'Amr should never stand as a preacher in his people." The Prophet ﷺ said, "Leave him, perhaps it will please you one day." Sufyan said, when the Prophet ﷺ died, the people of Makkah dispersed, and Suhaib ibn 'Amr stood by the Kaaba and said, "Whoever used to worship Muhammad ﷺ, know that Muhammad has died, but Allah is ever-living and never dies."
