[Machine] Adi ibn Hatim came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said, "O Messenger of Allah, my father used to maintain kinship, carry loads, and feed the hungry." He said, "Did he embrace Islam?" He said, "No." He said, "Your father used to love to be mentioned, so he is mentioned."
أَنَّ عَدِيَّ بْنَ حَاتِمٍ أَتَى رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّ أَبِي كَانَ يَصِلُ الْقَرَابَةَ وَيَحْمِلُ الْكَلَّ وَيُطْعِمُ الطَّعَامَ قَالَ «هَلْ أَدْرَكَ الْإِسْلَامَ؟» قَالَ لَا قَالَ «إِنَّ أَبَاكَ كَانَ يُحِبُّ أَنْ يُذْكَرَ فَذُكِرَ»
