English

Usaid ibn Hudair (may Allah be pleased with him), a man from the Ansar, narrated: “While he was speaking to people, being humorous and making them laugh, the Prophet (ﷺ) poked him in his side with a stick. He said, ‘Let me retaliate.’ The Prophet said, ‘Retaliate.’ He said, ‘You have a shirt on, and I do not.’ The Prophet (ﷺ) lifted his shirt, and he embraced him and began kissing his side, saying, ‘This is all I wanted, O Messenger of Allah.’”
