Mu'jam Kabir Tabarani 7335 — I came to Sayyiduna Safwan bin Assal

حَدَّثَنَا جَعْفَرُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْفِرْيَابِيُّ، ثنا مِنْجَابُ بْنُ الْحَارِثِ، ثنا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُسْهِرٍ، عَنْ مِسْعَرِ بْنِ كِدَامٍ، عَنْ عَاصِمِ بْنِ أَبِي النَّجُودِ، عَنْ زِرِّ بْنِ حُبَيْشٍ، قَالَ: أَتَيْتُ صَفْوَانَ بْنَ عَسَّالٍ، فَقَالَ لِي: مَا جَاءَ بِكَ؟ قَالَ: قُلْتُ: أَطْلُبُ الْعِلْمَ. قَالَ: مَا خَرَجَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ بَيْتِهِ يَلْتَمِسُ عِلْمًا إِلَّا وَضَعَتْ لَهُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ أَجْنِحَتَهَا رِضًى بِمَا يَفْعَلُ. قُلْتُ لَهُ: كُنْتَ امْرَأً مِنْ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى الله عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمْ، وَلَكِنَّهُ حَدَثَ فِي نَفْسِي مَسْحٌ عَلَى الْخُفَّيْنِ، فَقَالَ: «كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى الله عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمْ يَأْمُرُنَا إِذَا كُنَّا سَفَرًا، أَوْ مُسَافِرِينَ أَنْ لَا نَنْزِعَ خِفَافَنَا ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ وَلَيَالِيَهُنَّ إِلَّا مِنْ جَنَابَةٍ، وَلَكِنْ مِنْ نَوْمٍ، أَوْ غَائِطٍ، أَوْ بَوْلٍ»
وَأَخْبَرَنِي أَنَّ أَعْرَابِيًّا أَتَى النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى الله عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمْ، فَنَادَاهُ مِنْ أُخْرَيَاتِ النَّاسِ بِصَوْتٍ جَهْوَرِيٍّ، فَقَالَ: يَا مُحَمَّدُ، فَأَجَابَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى الله عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمْ نَحْوًا مِنْ كَلَامِهِ: «هَاؤُمُ» فَقَالَ: أَرَأَيْتَ رَجُلًا يُحِبُّ قَوْمًا، وَلَمَّا يَلْحَقْ بِهِمْ، قَالَ: «الْمَرْءُ مَعَ مَنْ أَحَبَّ»
Zirr bin Hubaysh (may Allah have mercy on him) says: I came to Sayyiduna Safwan bin Assal (may Allah be pleased with him), and he asked me: "What has brought you?" I said: "I am seeking knowledge." He said: "Whoever leaves his house in search of knowledge, the angels spread their wings for him out of pleasure with what he does." I said to him: "You were one of the Companions of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), but a question has arisen in my heart about wiping over the leather socks." He said: "The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) used to order us, when we were on a journey or travelling, not to take off our leather socks for three days and nights except for major ritual impurity (janabah); but for sleep, defecation or urination (we should not take them off)."
And he told me that a Bedouin came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and called out to him (peace and blessings be upon him) in a loud voice from the rear of the people: "O Muhammad!" So the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) answered him in the same manner: "Yes, listen." He asked: "What do you say about a man who loves a people but has not yet joined them?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "A person is with the one he loves."
