Can you share the narration where the Sahaba (radiyallahu’anhum) were laughing at ‘Abdullah ibn Mas’ud (radiyallahu’anhu) when he was trapped in a tree, and the Prophet (sallallahu’alayhi wasallam) said something to the nearest meaning “that his legs are the size of Uhud”
Answer:
Sayyiduna ‘Abdullah ibn Mas’ud (radiyallahu’anhu) reports that once he was cutting miswak from a tree and due to his thin [weak] shins the wind began to sway him. The Sahabah (radiyallahu’anhum) began to laugh.
Rasulullah (sallallahu’alayhi wasallam) enquired the reason for their laugh to which they replied: ‘O Nabi Of Allah, because of his thin shins.
Rasulullah (sallallahu’alayhi wasallam) said: ‘By the oath of Allah, they will be more heavier on the scales than mount Uhud [on the day of Qiyamah].’

And Allah Ta’ala Knows best,
