IMITATING GOOD MANNERS H H 346 "Anas went on a journey with Jarir the son of Abdullah Bujali. Jarir served Anas even though he was older than himself. Anas said to him: 'Don't do this.' He replied: 'I saw the Ansar serve the Prophet, praise and peace be upon him, with such devotion that I made a vow that whenever I am in the company of any of them I would serve them.'" R 346 Bukhari and Muslim with a chain up to Anas the son of Malik who related this.
345- وعن أنس بن مالك رضي الله عنه ، قَالَ : خرجت مَعَ جرير بن عبد الله البَجَليّ رضي الله عنه في سَفَرٍ ، فَكَانَ يَخْدُمُني ، فَقُلْتُ لَهُ : لاَ تَفْعَل ، فَقَالَ : إِنِّي قَدْ رَأيْتُ الأنْصَارَ تَصْنَعُ برسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم شيئاً آلَيْتُ عَلَى نَفسِي أنْ لا أصْحَبَ أحَداً مِنْهُمْ إلاَّ خَدَمْتُهُ . مُتَّفَقٌ عَلَيهِ .
