1701 — Abū Bakr ibn Abī Dāwūd also narrated to us, saying: Abbād ibn Ya‘qūb narrated to us, saying: Amr ibn Thābit narrated to us, from Abū Ishāq, from Hanash ibn al-Mu‘tamir, who said: I saw Abū Dharr holding the ring of the door of the Kaaba. I asked, “What is the matter with you?” He replied, “As for anyone who does not know me, I am Abū Dharr. I heard the Messenger of Allah—peace and blessings be upon him—say: ‘O people, the likeness of the members of my household is that of Noah’s Ark: whoever boards it will be saved, and whoever remains behind will drown.’”
