Hadith 4698
عَن أنس بن مَالك قَالَ: لَمْ يَكُنْ شَخْصٌ أَحَبَّ إِلَيْهِمْ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَكَانُوا إِذَا رَأَوْهُ لَمْ يَقُومُوا لِمَا يَعْلَمُونَ مِنْ كَرَاهِيَتِهِ لِذَلِكَ. رَوَاهُ التِّرْمِذِيُّ وَقَالَ: هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ
Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: There was no person more beloved to the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) than the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), yet when they saw him, they would not stand up, because they knew that he (peace and blessings be upon him) disliked it. And he said: This hadith is Hasan Sahih. Sahih, narrated by al-Tirmidhi.
