Chapter 43 · General Behavior (Kitab Al-Adab)كَمْ مَرَّةٍ يُسَلِّمُ الرَّجُلُ فِي الاِسْتِئْذَانِ
حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَبْدَةَ، أَخْبَرَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ خُصَيْفَةَ، عَنْ بُسْرِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ، قَالَ: كُنْتُ جَالِسًا فِي مَجْلِسٍ مِنْ مَجَالِسِ الْأَنْصَارِ، فَجَاءَ أَبُو مُوسَى فَزِعًا، فَقُلْنَا لَهُ: مَا أَفْزَعَكَ ؟ قَالَ: أَمَرَنِي عُمَرُ أَنْ آتِيَهُ فَأَتَيْتُهُ، فَاسْتَأْذَنْتُ ثَلَاثًا فَلَمْ يُؤْذَنْ لِي فَرَجَعْتُ، فَقَالَ: مَا مَنَعَكَ أَنْ تَأْتِيَنِي ؟ قُلْتُ: قَدْ جِئْتُ فَاسْتَأْذَنْتُ ثَلَاثًا، فَلَمْ يُؤْذَنْ لِي، وَقَدْ قال رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: إِذَا اسْتَأْذَنَ أَحَدُكُمْ ثَلَاثًا، فَلَمْ يُؤْذَنْ لَهُ، فَلْيَرْجِعْ، قال: لَتَأْتِيَنَّ عَلَى هَذَا بِالْبَيِّنَةِ، فَقَالَ أَبُو سَعِيدٍ: لَا يَقُومُ مَعَكَ إِلَّا أَصْغَرُ الْقَوْمِ، قَالَ: فَقَامَ أَبُو سَعِيدٍ مَعَهُ، فَشَهِدَ لَهُ.

How many times should one say salam when seeking permission to enter
I was sitting in one of the meeting of the Ansar. Abu Musa رضی اللہ عنہ came terrified. We asked him; what makes you terrified? He replied: Umar رضی اللہ عنہ sent for me; so I went to him and asked his permission three times, but he did not permit me (to enter), so I came back. He asked; what has prevented you from coming to me? I replied: I came and asked permission three times, but it was not granted to me (so I returned). The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم has said: When one of you asks permission three times and it is not granted to him, he should go away. He (Umar’ رضی اللہ عنہ) said; establish the proof of it. So Abu Saeed said: the youngest of the people will accompany you. So Abu Saeed got up with him and testified.
