## Hadith #5180

**Book:** General Behavior (Kitab Al-Adab) | **Narrator(s):** Ata' bin Abi Rabah عطاء بن أبي رباح, Ibn Jurayj ابن جريج, Ruh bin 'Ubada bin al-'Ala' روح بن عبادة بن العلاء, Ubaid bin 'Umayr bin Qatada عبيد بن عمير بن قتادة, Yahya bin Habib bin Arby يحيى بن حبيب بن عربي | **Grade:** Sahih

I was sitting in one of the meeting of the Ansar. Abu Musa came terrified. We asked him; what makes you terrified? He replied: ‘Umar sent for me; so I went to him and asked his permission three times, but he did not permit me (to enter), so I came back. He asked; what has prevented you from coming to me? I replied: I came and asked permission three times, but it was not granted to me (so I returned). The Messenger of Allah (May peace be upon him) has said: When one of you asks permission three times and it is not granted to him, he should go away. He (‘Umar’) said; establish the proof of it. So Abu Sa’id said: the youngest of the people will accompany you. So Abu Sa’id got up with him and testified.
