[Machine] A man came to the Prophet ﷺ and said, "O Messenger of Allah, I love you so much that I constantly remember you. If I am not able to come and see you, I feel as if my soul has left my body. I remember that if I enter Paradise, I will be below your station, and that troubles me. I want to be with you in the same level. The Prophet ﷺ did not reply to him. Then Allah revealed the verse, 'And whoever obeys Allah and the Messenger - those will be with the ones upon whom Allah has bestowed favor' [Quran 4:69]. So, the Prophet ﷺ called the man and recited the verse to him."  

الطبراني:١٢٥٥٩حَدَّثَنَا الْعَبَّاسُ بْنُ الْفَضْلِ الْأَسْفَاطِيُّ ثنا ثَابِتُ بْنُ عَبَّاسٍ أَبُو بَكْرٍ الْأَحْدَبُ ثنا خَالِدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ السَّائِبِ عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ

أَنَّ رَجُلًا أَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنِّي لَأُحِبُّكَ حَتَّى إِنِّي لَأَذْكُرُكَ فَلَوْلَا أَنِّي أَجِيءُ فَأَنْظُرُ إِلَيْكَ ظَنَنْتُ أَنَّ نَفْسِي تَخْرُجُ فَأَذْكُرُ أَنِّي إِنْ دَخَلْتُ الْجَنَّةَ صِرْتُ دُونَكَ فِي الْمَنْزِلَةِ فَشَقَّ ذَلِكَ عَلَيَّ وَأُحِبُّ أَنْ أَكُونَ مَعَكَ فِي الدَّرَجَةِ فَلَمْ يَرُدَّ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ شَيْئًا فَأَنْزَلَ اللهُ ﷻ {وَمَنْ يُطِعِ اللهَ وَالرَّسُولَ فَأُولَئِكَ مَعَ الَّذِينَ أَنْعَمَ اللهُ عَلَيْهِمْ} الْآيَةَ فَدَعَاهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَتَلَاهَا عَلَيْهِ
