Muslim narrated from the hadith of 'Amr ibn al-Sharid, from his father, who said: I rode behind the Messenger of Allah (may Allah bless him and grant him peace) one day, and he said: "Do you have with you anything of the poetry of Umayyah ibn Abi al-Salt?" I said: Yes. He said: "Proceed [more]," so I recited a verse to him. He said: "Proceed [more]," then I recited a verse to him. He said: "Proceed [more]," then I recited a hundred verses to him.
