حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ حُجْرٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا سُوَيْدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ، عَنْ حُمَيْدٍ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، أَنَّ امْرَأَةً جَاءَتْ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم، فَقَالَتْ لَهُ: إِنَّ لِي إِلَيْكَ حَاجَةً، فَقَالَ: اجْلِسِي فِي أَيِّ طَرِيقِ الْمَدِينَةِ شِئْتِ، أَجْلِسْ إِلَيْكِ.
Anas ibn Malik said (may Allah be well pleased with him):
"A woman came to the Prophet (Allah bless him and give him peace) and said to him: 'I am in need of you,' so he said: 'Sit in whichever road of the city you wish, and I shall sit with you!'"
