عن أنس أن رجلاً من أهل البادية كان إسمه زاهر بن حزام أو حرام قال وكان النبي ﷺ يحبه وكان دميماً فأتاه النبي ﷺ يوماً وهو يبيع متاعه فاحتضنه من خلفه وهو لا يبصر فقال أرسلني من هذا فالتفت فعرف النبي ﷺ فجعل لا يألو ما الزق ظهره بصدر النبي ﷺ حين عرفه وجعل النبي ﷺ يقول من يشتري العبد فقال يا رسول الله إذاً والله تجدني كاسداً فقال النبي ﷺ لكن عند الله لست بكاسد

السنن الكبرى للبيهقي كتاب الشهادات باب المزاح لا ترد به الشهادة

Anas related of a man from the desert people, whose name was Zahir ibn Hizam or Hiram. He said: The Prophet (SAW) loved him; but he was very unpleasant in appearance. And the Prophet (SAW) came to him one day while he was selling his wares, and He embraced him tightly from behind while he was not looking. He said: Let me go, who is this? And he turned around and recognized the Prophet (SAW), and he did not restrain himself from pressing his back against the Prophet’s (SAW) chest when he recognized him. Then the Prophet (SAW) came up and said: Who will buy this slave? And he said: Oh now Messenger of Allah, I swear by Allah, you will find me unsellable. The Prophet (SAW) said: But in the sight of Allah you are not unsellable.
