[Machine] I went to a man from the companions of the Prophet ﷺ called Safwan ibn 'Assal and he asked me, "What brings you here?" So I said, "I came to seek knowledge." He said, "Shouldn't I inform you that the angels spread their wings for the seeker of knowledge, satisfied with what he does?" And I have seen us with the Prophet ﷺ on a journey when an Arab called out to him in a loud voice, so the Prophet ﷺ said to him, "Here I am." The man said, "A person loves a people but has not done their deeds." So the Prophet ﷺ said, "A person is with those he loves."
غَدَوْتُ عَلَى رَجُلٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ يُقَالُ لَهُ صَفْوَانُ بْنُ عَسَّالٍ فَقَالَ مَا جَاءَ بِكَ؟ فَقُلْتُ جِئْتُ أَطْلُبُ الْعِلْمَ قَالَ أَلَا أُخْبِرُكَ أَنَّ الْمَلَائِكَةَ تَضَعُ أَجْنِحَتَهَا لِطَالِبِ الْعِلْمِ رِضًى بِمَا يَفْعَلُ وَلَقَدْ رَأَيْتُنَا وَنَحْنُ مَعَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فِي مَسِيرٍ فَنَادَاهُ أَعْرَابِيٌّ بِصَوْتٍ لَهُ جَهْوَرِيٍّ قَالَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «هَاؤُمُ» فَقَالَ الْمَرْءُ يُحِبُّ الْقَوْمَ وَلَمْ يَعْمَلْ مِنْ عَمَلِهِمْ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «الْمَرْءُ مَعَ مَنْ أَحَبَّ»
