38. Good Conduct and Manners
٣٨۔ كتاب الآداب
I came to Allah's Apostle ﷺ and called him (with a view to seeking permission). whereupon Allah's Apostle ﷺ said: Who is it? I said: It is I. Thereupon he (the Holy Prophet) came out saying: It is I. it is I.
أَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَدَعَوْتُ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ مَنْ هَذَا قُلْتُ أَنَا قَالَ فَخَرَجَ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ أَنَا أَنَا
I sought permission from Messenger of Allah (may peace be upoh him) to see him. He said: Who is it? I said: It is I. Thereupon Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: It is I. it is I (these words lead me to no conclusion).
اسْتَأْذَنْتُ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ مَنْ هَذَا فَقُلْتُ أَنَا فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ أَنَا أَنَا
The Prophet ﷺ uttered these words: It is I. it is I." in the manner as if he disapproved of this.
عَنْ شُعْبَةَ بِهَذَا الإِسْنَادِ وَفِي حَدِيثِهِمْ كَأَنَّهُ كَرِهَ ذَلِكَ
