Abu Rifa'a reported:
I came to the Prophet ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) when he was delivering the sermon, and I said: Messenger of Allah, here is a stranger and he wants to learn about this religion and he does not know what this religion is. The Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) looked at me and left his sermon till he came to me, and he was given a chair and I thought that Its legs were made of iron. The Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) sat In it and he began to teach me what Allah had taught him. He then came (to the pulpit) for his sermon and completed it to the end.
