adab:350

Abu Hurayra reported that the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "A man visited a brother of his in a village, so Allah put an angel in wait for him on the road. He asked, 'Where are you going?' He replied, 'To a brother of mine in this village.' He said, 'Is he responsible for some blessing you have?' He said, 'No, I love him for Allah.' He said, 'I am a messenger of Allah to you. Allah loves you as you love him.'"  

الأدب المفرد:٣٥٠حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ وَمُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ عَنْ ثَابِتٍ عَنْ أَبِي رَافِعٍ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ زَارَ رَجُلٌ أَخًا لَهُ فِي قَرْيَةٍ فَأَرْصَدَ اللَّهُ لَهُ مَلَكًا عَلَى مَدْرَجَتِهِ فَقَالَ أَيْنَ تُرِيدُ؟ قَالَ أَخًا لِي فِي هَذِهِ الْقَرْيَةِ فَقَالَ هَلْ لَهُ عَلَيْكَ مِنْ نِعْمَةٍ تَرُبُّهَا؟ قَالَ لاَ إِنِّي أُحِبُّهُ فِي اللهِ قَالَ فَإِنِّي رَسُولُ اللهِ إِلَيْكَ أَنَّ اللَّهَ أَحَبَّكَ كَمَا أَحْبَبْتَهُ
