[Machine] I asked Jabir ibn Samurah, "Did you used to sit with the Prophet ﷺ?" He said, "Yes, and he was often silent and rarely laughed. The companions of the Prophet ﷺ used to exchange poems, and the Prophet ﷺ would smile."

قُلْتُ لِجَابِرِ بْنِ سَمُرَةَ أَكُنْتَ تُجَالِسُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ؟ قَالَ نَعَمْ وَكَانَ طَوِيلَ الصَّمْتِ قَلِيلَ الضَّحِكِ وَكَانَ أَصْحَابُ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ يَتَنَاشَدُونَ الشِّعْرَ وَالنَّبِيُّ ﷺ يَتَبَسَّمُ
