ENGLISH

It was narrated that Abu Mas`ud said:

“A man came to the Prophet (ﷺ) and his voice trembled out of awe as he spoke to him. The Prophet (ﷺ) said to him, “Be calm, for I am not a king. Verily, I am only the son of a woman who ate dried meat.”

ARABIC

‏ هَوِّنْ عَلَيْكَ فَإِنِّي لَسْتُ بِمَلِكٍ إِنَّمَا أَنَا ابْنُ امْرَأَةٍ تَأْكُلُ الْقَدِيدَ ‏
