I traveled with Jareer bin Abdullah al-Bajali, and he would serve me. I said to him, "Do not do this."He replied, "I saw what the Ansar used to do for the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and I swore that I would never accompany any of them without serving them."Ibn al-Muthanna and Ibn Bashshar added in their narrations that Jareer was older than Anas. Ibn Bashshar said, "More advanced in age than Anas."
