حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، عَنْ شُعْبَةَ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْمُنْكَدِرِ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ، قَالَ اسْتَأْذَنْتُ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ـ ـ فَقَالَ ‏"‏ مَنْ هَذَا ‏"‏ ‏.‏ فَقُلْتُ أَنَا فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ـ ـ ‏"‏ أَنَا أَنَا

This hadith is about the importance of humility and respect. It was narrated by Jabir ibn Abdullah that he asked for permission to enter the presence of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). When asked who it was, he replied “Me”. The Prophet then said “Me, me?!” in a way that taught him not to be boastful or arrogant but instead show humility and respect. This hadith teaches us that we should always show humility when speaking with others, even if we are asking for something from them or entering their presence. We should also remember to show respect when addressing people, as this will help us build strong relationships with them.
