Narrated ‘Abdur Rahman bin ‘Abis:
A person asked Ibn Abbas, “Have you ever presented yourself at the (‘Id) prayer with Allah’s
Apostle?” He replied, “Yes.” And had it not been for my kinship (position) with the Prophet it would
not have been possible for me to do so (for he was too young). The Prophet went to the mark near the
house of Kathir bin As-Salt and delivered a sermon. He then went towards the women. He advised
and reminded them and asked them to give alms. So the woman would bring her hand near her neck
and take off her necklace and put it in the garment of Bilal. Then the Prophet and Bilal came to the
house.”
