حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، حَدَّثَنَا بِشْرٌ، عَنْ شُعْبَةَ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْمُنْكَدِرِ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ، أَنَّهُ ذَهَبَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فِي دَيْنِ أَبِيهِ فَدَقَقْتُ الْبَابَ فَقَالَ " مَنْ هَذَا " . قُلْتُ أَنَا . قَالَ " أَنَا أَنَا " . كَأَنَّهُ كَرِهَهُ .
Jabir said that he went to the prophet (ﷺ) about the debt of my father. He said : I knocked at the door. He asked : who is there? I replied: it is I. he said: I, as though he disapproved of it.
