ahmad-zuhd:1394ʿAbdullāh from my father > Abū Dāwud > ʿImrān > Qatādah > Muslim b. Yasār

[Machine] I fell ill and did not find anything more reliable within myself than a group of people whom I loved only for the sake of Allah.  

الزهد لأحمد:١٣٩٤حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو دَاوُدَ حَدَّثَنَا عِمْرَانُ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنْ مُسْلِمِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ قَالَ

«مَرِضْتُ مَرْضَةً فَلَمْ أَجِدْ شَيْئًا أَوْثَقَ فِي نَفْسِي مِنْ قَوْمٍ كُنْتُ أُحِبُّهُمْ لَا أُحِبُّهُمْ إِلَّا لِلَّهِ ﷻ»
