ذِكْرُ إِيجَابِ مَحَبَّةِ اللَّهِ جَلَّ وَعَلَا لِلْمُتَجَالِسِينَ فِيهِ، وَالْمُتَزَاوِرِينَ فِيهِ

Yahya related to me from Malik from Abu Hazim ibn Dinar that Abu Idris al-Khawlani said, "I entered the Damascus mosque and there was a young man with a beautiful mouth and white teeth sitting with some people. When they disagreed about something, they referred it to him and proceeded from his statement. I inquired about him, and it was said, 'This is Muadh ibn Jabal.' The next day I went to the noon-prayer, and I found that he had preceded me to the noon prayer and I found him praying." Abu Idris continued, "I waited for him until he had finished the prayer. Then I came to him from in front of him and greeted him and said, 'By Allah! I love you for Allah!' He said, 'By Allah?' I said, 'By Allah.' He said, 'By Allah?' I said, 'By Allah.' He said, 'By Allah?' I said, 'By Allah.' " He continued, "He took me by the upper part of my cloak and pulled me to him and said, 'Rejoice! I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say, "Allah, the Blessed and Exalted, said, 'My love is obliged for those who love each other in Me, and those who sit with each other in Me, and those who visit each other in Me, and those who give to each other generously in Me.' " ' "  

أَنَّهُ قَالَ دَخَلْتُ مَسْجِدَ دِمَشْقَ فَإِذَا فَتًى شَابٌّ بَرَّاقُ الثَّنَايَا وَإِذَا النَّاسُ مَعَهُ إِذَا اخْتَلَفُوا فِي شَىْءٍ أَسْنَدُوا إِلَيْهِ وَصَدَرُوا عَنْ قَوْلِهِ فَسَأَلْتُ عَنْهُ فَقِيلَ هَذَا مُعَاذُ بْنُ جَبَلٍ فَلَمَّا كَانَ الْغَدُ هَجَّرْتُ فَوَجَدْتُهُ قَدْ سَبَقَنِي بِالتَّهْجِيرِ وَوَجَدْتُهُ يُصَلِّي قَالَ فَانْتَظَرْتُهُ حَتَّى قَضَى صَلاَتَهُ ثُمَّ جِئْتُهُ مِنْ قِبَلِ وَجْهِهِ فَسَلَّمْتُ عَلَيْهِ ثُمَّ قُلْتُ وَاللَّهِ إِنِّي لأُحِبُّكَ لِلَّهِ فَقَالَ آللَّهِ فَقُلْتُ آللَّهِ فَقَالَ آللَّهِ فَقُلْتُ آللَّهِ فَقَالَ آللَّهِ فَقُلْتُ آللَّهِ قَالَ فَأَخَذَ بِحُبْوَةِ رِدَائِي فَجَبَذَنِي إِلَيْهِ وَقَالَ أَبْشِرْ فَإِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ قَالَ اللَّهُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى وَجَبَتْ مَحَبَّتِي لِلْمُتَحَابِّينَ فِيَّ وَالْمُتَجَالِسِينَ فِيَّ وَالْمُتَزَاوِرِينَ فِيَّ وَالْمُتَبَاذِلِينَ فِيَّ  

… the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Allah ﷻ said: My love is assured for those who love each other for My sake, who sit together for My sake, who visit each other for My sake, and who spend on each other for My sake."  

دَخَلْتُ مَسْجِدَ دِمَشْقِ بالشَّامِ فَإِذَا أَنَا بِفَتًى بَرَّاقِ الثَّنَايَا وَإِذَا النَّاسُ حَوْلَهُ إِذَا اخْتَلَفُوا فِي شَيْءٍ أَسْنَدُوهُ إِلَيْهِ وَصَدَرُوا عَنْ رَأْيِهِ فَسَأَلْتُ عَنْهُ فَقِيلَ هَذَا مُعَاذُ بْنُ جَبَلٍ فَلَمَّا كَانَ الْغَدُ هَجَّرْتُ فَوَجَدْتُهُ قَدْ سَبَقَنِي بِالْهَجِيرِ وَقَالَ إِسْحَاقُ بِالتَّهْجِيرِ وَوَجَدْتُهُ يُصَلِّي فَانْتَظَرْتُهُ حَتَّى إِذَا قَضَى صَلَاتَهُ جِئْتُهُ مِنْ قِبَلِ وَجْهِهِ فَسَلَّمْتُ عَلَيْهِ فَقُلْتُ لَهُ وَاللهِ إِنِّي لَأُحِبُّكَ لِلَّهِ فَقَالَ أَللَّهِ؟ فَقُلْتُ أَللَّهِ فَقَالَ أَللَّهِ؟ فَقُلْتُ أَللَّهِ فَأَخَذَ بِحُبْوَةِ رِدَائِي فَجَبَذَنِي إِلَيْهِ

وَقَالَ أَبْشِرْ فَإِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ: «قَالَ اللهُ ﷻ وَجَبَتْ مَحَبَّتِي لِلْمُتَحَابِّينَ فِيَّ وَالْمُتَجَالِسِينَ فِيَّ وَالْمُتَزَاوِرِينَ فِيَّ وَالْمُتَبَاذِلِينَ فِيَّ.»  

[Machine] I entered the mosque of Damascus and found a young man with a radiant face surrounded by people. Whenever they disagreed on something, they would turn to him and accept his opinion. So, I asked about him and was told, "This is Muadh ibn Jabal." The next day, I migrated and found him praying. I waited for him to finish his prayer, then I approached him from the front, greeted him, and said, "By Allah, I love you for the sake of Allah." He asked, "For Allah?" I replied, "For Allah." Then he repeated, "For Allah?" I said, "For Allah." He then took hold of my collar and pulled me closer, saying, "Be glad, for I have heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, 'Allah, the Almighty, has declared that My Love is obligatory for those who love each other for My sake, those who sit together for My sake, those who exchange gifts for My sake, and those who visit each other for My sake.'"  

دَخَلْتُ مَسْجِدَ دِمَشْقَ فَإِذَا فَتًى بَرَّاقُ الثَّنَايَا وَإِذَا النَّاسُ مَعَهُ إِذَا اخْتَلَفُوا فِي شَيْءٍ أَسْنَدُوا إِلَيْهِ وَصَدَرُوا عَنْ رَأْيِهِ فَسَأَلْتُ عَنْهُ فَقِيلَ هَذَا مُعَاذُ بْنُ جَبَلٍ فَلَمَّا كَانَ مِنَ الْغَدِ هَجَّرْتُ فَوَجَدْتُهُ قَدْ سَبَقَنِي وَوَجَدْتُهُ يُصَلِّي قَالَ فَانْتَظَرْتُهُ حَتَّى قَضَى صَلَاتَهُ ثُمَّ جِئْتُهُ مِنْ قِبَلِ وَجْهِهِ فَسَلَّمْتُ عَلَيْهِ وَقُلْتُ وَاللَّهِ إِنِّي لَأُحِبُّكَ فِي اللَّهِ فَقَالَ آللَّهُ؟ فَقُلْتُ آللَّهُ؟ فَقَالَ آللَّهُ فَقُلْتُ آللَّهُ قَالَ فَأَخَذَ بِحُبْوَةِ رِدَائِي وَجَذَبَنِي إِلَيْهِ وَقَالَ أَبْشِرْ فَإِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ قَالَ اللَّهُ ﷻ وَجَبَتْ مَحَبَّتِي لِلْمُتَحَابِّينَ فِيَّ وَالْمُتَجَالِسِينَ فِيَّ وَالْمُتَبَاذِلِينَ فِيَّ وَالْمُتَزَاوِرِينَ فِيَّ  

[Machine] Al-Qa'nabi narrated from Malik, from Abu Hazim ibn Dinar, from Abu Idrees al-Khawlani, that he said: "I entered the mosque in Damascus, and there I saw a young man, tall and silent. When people differed in something, they would refer to him and accept his opinion. I asked about him, and it was said that he was Muadh bin Jabal. The next day, I left and found him already ahead of me in migration. I found him praying, so I waited until he finished his prayer, then I approached him from his front side and greeted him. I said, 'I swear by Allah, I love you for the sake of Allah.' He asked, 'By Allah?' I said, 'By Allah.' He asked, 'By Allah?' I said, 'By Allah.' He asked, 'By Allah?' I said, 'By Allah.' He then grabbed the edge of my garment and pulled me towards him, and said, 'Rejoice, for I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, "Allah said, 'My love is obligatory for those who love each other for My sake, and sit together for My sake, and spend on each other for My sake, and visit each other for My sake.'"
