Sahih Muslim 2930c (Book 54, Hadith 120) #14413
The Importance of Seeking Knowledge

SUMMARY: Allah's Messenger ﷺ passed by a young boy playing with children and went on to teach him about the importance of seeking knowledge.

Ibn 'Umar reported that Allah's Messenger happened to pass by Ibn Sayyad along with his Companions including 'Umar b. Khattab as he was playing with children near the battlement of Bani Maghala and he was also a child by that time. The rest of the hadith is the same as narrated by Ibn Umar (in which there is a mention of) setting out of Allah's Apostle along with Ubayy b. Ka'b towards the date-palm trees.
وَحَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ بْنُ حُمَيْدٍ، وَسَلَمَةُ بْنُ شَبِيبٍ، جَمِيعًا عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّزَّاقِ، أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ سَالِمٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مَرَّ بِابْنِ صَيَّادٍ فِي نَفَرٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ فِيهِمْ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ وَهُوَ يَلْعَبُ مَعَ الْغِلْمَانِ عِنْدَ أُطُمِ بَنِي مَغَالَةَ وَهُوَ غُلاَمٌ ‏.‏ بِمَعْنَى حَدِيثِ يُونُسَ وَصَالِحٍ غَيْرَ أَنَّ عَبْدَ بْنَ حُمَيْدٍ لَمْ يَذْكُرْ حَدِيثَ ابْنِ عُمَرَ فِي انْطِلاَقِ النَّبِيِّ مَعَ أُبَىِّ بْنِ كَعْبٍ إِلَى النَّخْلِ
