حَدَّثَنَا عَاصِمُ بْنُ النَّضْرِ التَّيْمِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا مُعْتَمِرٌ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ كَهْمَسًا، يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ أَبِي نَضْرَةَ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، قَالَ أَرَادَ بَنُو سَلِمَةَ أَنْ يَتَحَوَّلُوا، إِلَى قُرْبِ الْمَسْجِدِ ‏.‏ - قَالَ - وَالْبِقَاعُ خَالِيَةٌ فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ النَّبِيَّ فَقَالَ ‏ "‏ يَا بَنِي سَلِمَةَ دِيَارَكُمْ تُكْتَبْ آثَارُكُمْ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ فَقَالُوا مَا كَانَ يَسُرُّنَا أَنَّا كُنَّا تَحَوَّلْنَا

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the importance of staying in one's home and not moving around too much. The Prophet Muhammad advised the people of Salama tribe to stay in their homes instead of moving closer to the mosque, as their footsteps are recorded. This means that Allah knows where we go and what we do, so it is important for us to be mindful and careful with our actions. Even though they were delighted at this news from the Prophet Muhammad, they still chose to obey his advice and remain where they were living. This hadith teaches us that obedience is more important than our own desires or wants, even if it means giving up something that would make us happy or content. It also teaches us that Allah knows everything we do and He will hold us accountable for our actions on Judgment Day.
