ذِكْرُ الْبَيَانِ بِأَنَّ عَبْدَ الْقَيْسِ مِنْ خَيْرِ أَهْلِ الْمَشْرِقِ

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The best of the people of the east is Abd al-Qays. The people entered Islam against their will and then embraced it willingly."  

ابن حبّان:٧٢٩٤ – أَخْبَرَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى بْنِ زُهَيْرٍ بِتُسْتَرٍ حَدَّثَنَا وَهْبُ بْنُ يَحْيَى بْنِ زِمَامٍ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سَوَاءٍ حَدَّثَنَا شُبَيْلُ بْنُ عَزْرَةَ عَنْ أَبِي جَمْرَةَ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «خَيْرُ أَهْلِ الْمَشْرِقِ عَبْدُ الْقَيْسِ أَسْلَمَ النَّاسُ كَرْهًا وَأَسْلَمُوا طَائِعِينَ»
