Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ السَّائِبِ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو قَالَ أَتَى النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ رَجُلٌ يُبَايِعُهُ عَلَى الْهِجْرَةِ وَغَلَّظَ عَلَيْهِ فَقَالَ مَا جِئْتُكَ حَتَّى أَبْكَيْتُهُمَا يَعْنِي وَالِدَيْهِ قَالَ ارْجِعْ فَأَضْحِكْهُمَا كَمَا أَبْكَيْتَهُمَا.
English Translation
Muhammad ibn Ja'far narrated to us: Shu'bah narrated from Ata ibn al-Sa'ib from his father from Abdullah ibn Amr who said: A man came to the Prophet (peace be upon him) to pledge allegiance to him for hijrah (emigration). He was insistent upon it, so the Prophet said: "I did not come to you until I made them both weep" - meaning his parents. He said: "Go back to them and make them laugh as you made them weep."
