Al-Mu'jam al-Awsat 1240 — the Prophet ﷺ said: Indeed, a servant keeps
حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ صَدَقَةَ ، قَالَ : نَا يَحْيَى بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ السَّكَنِ قَالَ : نَا مَحْبُوبُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ قَالَ : نَا مَيْمُونُ بْنُ عَجْلَانَ الثَّقَفِيُّ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبَّادٍ الْمَخْزُومِيِّ . عَنْ ثَوْبَانَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ -صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ- قَالَ : إِنَّ الْعَبْدَ يَلْتَمِسُ مَرْضَاةَ اللهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ ، فَلَا يَزَالُ كَذَلِكَ . فَيَقُولُ اللهُ : يَا جِبْرِيلُ ، إِنَّ عَبْدِي فُلَانًا يَلْتَمِسُ أَنْ يُرْضِيَنِي ، فَرِضَائِي عَلَيْهِ I " . قَالَ : I " فَيَقُولُ جِبْرِيلُ -صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ- : رَحْمَةُ اللهِ عَلَى فُلَانٍ ، وَتَقُولُ حَمَلَةُ الْعَرْشِ ، وَيَقُولُ الَّذِينَ يَلُونَهُمْ ، حَتَّى يَقُولَهُ أَهْلُ السَّمَاوَاتِ السَّبْعِ ، ثُمَّ يَهْبِطُ إِلَى الْأَرْضِ I ". فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ -صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ- : I " وَهِيَ الْآيَةُ الَّتِي أَنْزَلَ اللهُ عَلَيْكُمْ فِي كِتَابِهِ : إِنَّ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَعَمِلُوا الصَّالِحَاتِ سَيَجْعَلُ لَهُمُ الرَّحْمَنُ وُدًّا وَإِنَّ الْعَبْدَ لَيَلْتَمِسُ سَخَطَ اللهِ ، فَيَقُولُ اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ : يَا جِبْرِيلُ ، إِنَّ فُلَانًا يُسْخِطُنِي أَلَا وَإِنَّ غَضَبِي عَلَيْهِ ، فَيَقُولُ جِبْرِيلُ : غَضِبَ اللهُ عَلَى فُلَانٍ ، وَيَقُولُ حَمَلَةُ الْعَرْشِ ، وَيَقُولُ مَنْ دُونَهُمْ ، حَتَّى يَقُولَهُ أَهْلُ السَّمَاوَاتِ السَّبْعِ ، ثُمَّ يَهْبِطُ إِلَى الْأَرْضِ . لَا يُرْوَى هَذَا الْحَدِيثُ عَنْ ثَوْبَانَ إِلَّا بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ ، تَفَرَّدَ بِهِ : مَيْمُونٌ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Thawban (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Indeed, a servant keeps seeking the pleasure of Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, and continues striving for it, so Allah Almighty says: 'O Jibril, My servant so-and-so is striving to please Me; know that My pleasure is (established) upon him.'" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Then Jibril (peace be upon him) says: 'The mercy of Allah be upon so-and-so,' and the angels who carry the Throne say the same, and those after them too, until the dwellers of the seven heavens all proclaim it. Then it (his acceptance) is sent down to the earth." Then the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "And this is the verse that Allah Almighty has revealed to you in His Book: 'Indeed, those who believe and do righteous deeds, the Most Merciful will appoint for them love.' And indeed a servant brings upon himself the displeasure of Allah, so Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, says: 'O Jibril, so-and-so is angering Me; know that My wrath is upon him.' Then Jibril (peace be upon him) says: 'Allah is wrathful with so-and-so,' and the angels who carry the Throne say the same, and those beneath them too, until the dwellers of the seven heavens say it. Then it (his rejection) is sent down to the earth."
This hadith is not narrated from Sayyiduna Thawban (may Allah be pleased with him) except with this chain; Maymun (bin Ajlan) (may Allah have mercy on him) is alone in narrating it.
