ahmad:12796Muʾammal > Ḥammād > Thābit > Anas

[Machine] The Prophet's companions said to the Prophet: "When we are with you, our hearts soften and when we leave you, we become harsh towards women and children." The Prophet ﷺ said: "If you were to remain in the same state as you are in my presence, the angels would come to shake hands with you."  

أحمد:١٢٧٩٦حَدَّثَنَا مُؤَمَّلٌ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ عَنْ ثَابِتٍ عَنْ أَنَسٍ

أَنَّ أَصْحَابَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالُوا لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ إِنَّا إِذَا كُنَّا عِنْدَكَ فَحَدَّثْتَنَا رَقَّتْ قُلُوبُنَا فَإِذَا خَرَجْنَا مِنْ عِنْدِكَ عَافَسْنَا النِّسَاءَ وَالصِّبْيَانَ وَفَعَلْنَا وَفَعَلْنَا فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ إِنَّ تِلْكَ السَّاعَةَ لَوْ تَدُومُونَ عَلَيْهَا لَصَافَحَتْكُمُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ
