Hadith 4857
وَعَن عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ: قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «مَا أُحِبُّ أَنِّي حَكَيْتُ أَحَدًا وَأَنَّ لي كَذَا وَكَذَا» . رَوَاهُ التِّرْمِذِيّ وَصَححهُ
Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) narrates that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "I do not like to imitate anyone, even if I were given such and such wealth." Tirmidhi has narrated it and declared it authentic. Its chain is authentic, narrated by Tirmidhi.
