[Machine] I heard 'Ayyad al-Ash'ari say, when the verse {So Allah will bring a people whom He loves and who love Him} [Surah Al-Ma'idah, verse 54] was revealed, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "They are your people, O Abu Musa," and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ pointed with his hand towards Abu Musa Al-Ash'ari.  

الحاكم:٣٢٢٠ – أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَمْرٍو عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ السَّمَّاكِ بِبَغْدَادَ ثنا عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الرَّقَاشِيُّ ثنا وَهْبُ بْنُ جَرِيرٍ وَسَعِيدُ بْنُ عَامِرٍ قَالَا ثنا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ سِمَاكِ بْنِ حَرْبٍ قَالَ

سَمِعْتُ عِيَاضًا الْأَشْعَرِيَّ يَقُولُ لَمَّا نَزَلَتْ {فَسَوْفَ يَأْتِي اللَّهُ بِقَوْمٍ يُحِبُّهُمْ وَيُحِبُّونَهُ} [المائدة 54] قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «هُمْ قَوْمُكَ يَا أَبَا مُوسَى وَأَوْمَأَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ بِيَدِهِ إِلَى أَبِي مُوسَى الْأَشْعَرِيِّ»
