Jami at-Tirmidhi 3834 (Book 49, Hadith 234) #29496
Memorizing Hadith with a Garment

SUMMARY: The Prophet (PBUH) taught Abu Hurairah a method of memorizing Hadith by gathering the garment at his heart.

Narrated Abu Hurairah: "I came to the Prophet and spread out my garment next to him, then he took it and gathered it at my heart, so I did not forget after that any Hadith".
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُمَرَ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ الْمُقَدَّمِيُّ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي عَدِيٍّ، عَنْ شُعْبَةَ، عَنْ سِمَاكٍ، عَنْ أَبِي الرَّبِيعِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ أَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ فَبَسَطْتُ ثَوْبِي عِنْدَهُ ثُمَّ أَخَذَهُ فَجَمَعَهُ عَلَى قَلْبِي فَمَا نَسِيتُ بَعْدَهُ حَدِيثًا ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ مِنْ هَذَا الْوَجْهِ
