Hadith 33:397
'Affan narrated to us, he said: Hammad ibn Salamah narrated to us, he said: Thabit narrated to us, from Anas, who said: I arrived at Abu 'Ubaydah ibn al-Jarrah's [house], and he lodged me in a corner of his house, while his wife was in another corner, and there was a curtain between us. He would milk the she-camel, then come with the vessel and place it in my hand. A man from the Tulaqa' (those freed at the conquest of Mecca) said to him, "Do you lodge this [man] in a corner of your house with your wife?" He replied, "I am observing through him the caravan of one whom, if I were to meet him stripped of his clothes, I would wait for every mount [to pass by first out of respect/caution]."
حدثنا عفان قال حدثنا حماد بن سلمة قال حدثنا ثابت عن أنس قال قدمت على أبي عبيدة بن الجراح فأنزلني في ناحية بيته وامرأته في ناحية وبيننا ستر فكان يحلب الناقة فيجيء بالاناء فيضعه في يدي فقال له رجل من الطلقاء أتنزل هذا ناحية بيتك مع امرأتك فقال أراقب به عير من لو لقيته سليبا لاستأنى على كل مركب
