Al-Matalib al-'Aliyah 3829 — The humility and fairness of the Prophet

وَقَالَ الْحَارِثُ : حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحِيمِ بْنُ وَاقِدٍ ، ثَنَا عَدِيُّ بْنُ الْفَضْلِ ، عَنْ يُونُسَ بْنِ عُبَيْدٍ ، عَنْ ثَابِتٍ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ - رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ - ، قَالَ : كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِنْ أَشَدِّ النَّاسِ لُطْفًا بِالنَّاسِ ، وَاللهِ مَا كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَمْتَنِعُ فِي غَدَاةٍ بَارِدَةٍ مِنْ عَبْدٍ وَلَا أَمَةٍ وَلَا صَبِيٍّ أَنْ يَأْتِيَهُ بِالْمَاءِ ، فَيَغْسِلَ وَجْهَهُ وَذِرَاعَيْهِ ، وَمَا سَأَلَ سَائِلٌ قَطُّ أُذُنَهُ إِلَّا أَصْغَى إِلَيْهِ ، وَلَا يَنْصَرِفُ عَنْهُ حَتَّى يَكُونَ هُوَ الَّذِي يَنْصَرِفُ ، وَمَا تَنَاوَلَ آدَمِيٌّ يَدَهُ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَطُّ إِلَّا آتَاهُ إِيَّاهَا ، فَلَمْ يَدَعْهَا مِنْهُ حَتَّى يَكُونَ هُوَ الَّذِي يَدَعُهَا مِنْهُ .
3829 \ 2 - وَقَالَ أَبُو يَعْلَى : حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ الْأَذْرَمِيُّ ، ثَنَا أَبُو قَطَنٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا مُبَارَكُ بْنُ فَضَالَةَ ، ثَنَا ثَابِتٌ بِهِ .
صَحَّحَهُ ابْنُ حِبَّانَ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: "The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) surpassed all people in showing kindness and gentleness to people. By Allah! Even on a bitterly cold morning, if a slave, a slave-girl or a child brought him (peace and blessings be upon him) water so that he (peace and blessings be upon him) could wash his blessed face and forearms with it, he (peace and blessings be upon him) would never refuse. Whenever someone asking came close to his (peace and blessings be upon him) ear to say something, he (peace and blessings be upon him) would listen to him with full attention and would not turn his radiant face away from him until that person moved away himself. And whenever any person took hold of his (peace and blessings be upon him) blessed hand (to shake hands), he (peace and blessings be upon him) would give his hand to him and would not withdraw it until that person himself let go of his (peace and blessings be upon him) hand."
Imam Abu Ya'la also narrated it, and Imam Ibn Hibban declared this hadith sahih (authentic).
