It was
narrated that Jabir bin ‘Abdullah said:
“The Messenger of
Allah
(ﷺ) used to stand by the root of a tree, or by a tree trunk,
then
he started to use a pulpit. The tree trunk made a grieving
sound.”
Jabir said: “So that the people in the mosque could hear it.
Until
the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) came to it and rubbed it, and it
calmed
down. Some of them said: ‘If he had not come to it, it would
have
grieved until the Day of Resurrection.’”
