Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا بَهْزٌ حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ الْمُغِيرَةِ حَدَّثَنَا حُمَيْدُ بْنُ هِلَالٍ قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو رِفَاعَةَ انْتَهَيْتُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَهُوَ يَخْطُبُ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ رَجُلٌ غَرِيبٌ جَاءَ يَسْأَلُ عَنْ دِينِهِ لَا يَدْرِي مَا دِينُهُ قَالَ فَأَقْبَلَ إِلَيَّ فَأَتَى بِكُرْسِيٍّ فَقَعَدَ عَلَيْهِ فَجَعَلَ يُعَلِّمُنِي مِمَّا عَلَّمَهُ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى قَالَ ثُمَّ أَتَى خُطْبَتَهُ فَأَتَمَّ آخِرَهَا.
English Translation
Abu Rifa'ah said: I came to the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) while he was delivering a sermon and said: 'O Messenger of Allah, a stranger has come asking about his religion; he does not know what his religion is.' He turned to me, and a chair was brought. He sat on it and began teaching me from what Allah, Most High, had taught him. Then he went back to his sermon and completed it.
