Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 37420 — The words of Imran bin Husayn

It is narrated from al-Hasan that he said: Sayyiduna Imran bin Husayn (may Allah be pleased with him) was afflicted with an illness because of which he could not remain in his senses. The narrator says: Some of those who came to him said to him: The state in which we see you keeps me from coming to you. He said: Do not do that. By Allah, whatever is beloved to Allah, that alone is beloved to me.
