Abu Dharr [may Allah have mercy on him] narrated, ‘I saw Salman and Bilal approaching the Prophet (SAWA) when Salman threw himself at the Prophet (SAWA) s feet, kissing them. So the Prophet (SAWA) stopped him from doing that, and said to him, ‘O Salman, do not do unto me as the foreigners do with their kings. I am a servant from among the servants of Allah, eating what a servant eats and sitting how a servant sits.
