\r\nNarrated Abu Hazim bin Dinar:\n \r\n\r\nSome people went to Sahl bin Sa`d As-Sa`idi and told him that they had different opinions regarding \r\nthe wood of the pulpit. They asked him about it and he said, "By Allah, I know of what wood the \r\npulpit was made, and no doubt I saw it on the very first day when Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) took his seat on it. \r\nAllah's Messenger (ﷺ) sent for such and such an Ansari woman (and Sahl mentioned her name) and said to \r\nher, 'Order your slave-carpenter to prepare for me some pieces of wood (i.e. pulpit) on which I may sit \r\nat the time of addressing the people.' So she ordered her slave-carpenter and he made it from the \r\ntamarisk of the forest and brought it (to the woman). The woman sent that (pulpit) to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) \r\nwho ordered it to be placed here. Then I saw Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) praying on it and then bowed on it. Then \r\nhe stepped back, got down and prostrated on the ground near the foot of the pulpit and again ascended \r\nthe pulpit. After finishing the prayer he faced the people and said, 'I have done this so that you may \r\nfollow me and learn the way I pray.' "\n
