The Story of the Prophet's (peace and blessings be upon him) Palm Trunk Longing

Question:
The questioner says: Shaykh, the trunk on which the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) used to deliver the sermon once, it is said that one time it expressed longing. What do we benefit from this story, may Allah preserve you?

Answer:
Yes, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) initially delivered the sermon leaning against a palm trunk, a trunk in the mosque. He (peace and blessings be upon him) leaned on it while delivering the sermon. When the pulpit was made for him from wood, and he left the trunk and ascended the pulpit, the trunk longed for him, longing for the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) like the longing of a child. So the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) descended and placed his hand on it, and it became calm. This is among the miracles of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) and among his love, to the extent that even the inanimate trunk longed for him (peace and blessings be upon him). Yes.
