One day when as Salman worked for his masters in the date palm groves of Quba, which lies a little way out of Medina, he overheard a Jew in conversation say, "May Allah destroy the children of Qaylah (people of Medina) they have gathered together to greet a man from Mecca who claims to be a prophet!" Hastily Salman climbed down from the palm tree and asked, "What is this, what has happened?" His master beat him severely saying, "What business is it of yours, go back to your work!"
Maalin maalmaha ka mid ah marka sida Salman oo ay u shaqeysay sayidyadeedii, isagoo ee geedihii Asheeraah taariikhda oo timir ah ee Quba, oo ku taala Jidka yar oo ka mid ah Madiina, ayuu duulduul nin Yuhuudi ah ee wada hadalka odhan, "Eebe reer Qaylah (reer Madiino) la soo ururiyo baabbi'iyee si wadajir ah ay u salaamaan nin ka Mecca oo sheegtay in uu nabi ah! "Maankiisa ku Salman hoos u fuusho ka jirtay geedkii timirta ahaa oo la weydiiyay, "Waa maxay waxan, waxa dhacay?" Sayidkiisii ayaa waxay sixun u garaaceen isaga ku yidhi, "Waa maxay ganacsiga waa Diintiinii, u tag shaqo dib!"
