ahmad-zuhd:1314ʿAbdullāh from my father > Sayyār > Jaʿfar > ʿUmar b. Nabhān > Qatādah

[Machine] Khalid al-Asari came on Friday and held on to the door handle. Then he said, "O brothers, is there anyone among you who does not want to meet his beloved? So love your Lord and walk towards Him in a noble manner."  

الزهد لأحمد:١٣١٤حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي حَدَّثَنَا سَيَّارٌ حَدَّثَنَا جَعْفَرٌ حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ نَبْهَانَ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ

أَنَّ خُلَيْدًا الْعَصَرِيَّ جَاءَ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ فَأَخَذَ بِعِضَادَتَيِ الْبَابِ ثُمَّ قَالَ «يَا إِخْوَتَاهْ هَلْ مِنْكُمْ أَحَدٌ لَا يُحِبُّ أَنْ يَلْقَى حَبِيبَهُ؟ أَلَا فَأَحِبُّوا رَبَّكُمْ ﷻ وَسِيرُوا إِلَيْهِ سَيْرًا كَرِيمًا»
