كلام أنس بن مالك ﵁Sayings of Anas ibn Malik رضي الله عنه
Hadith 37492
٣٧٤٩٢ - حدثنا يحيى بن يعلى عن منصور عن طلق بن حبيب عن أنس بن مالك قال: ثلاث من كن فيه وجد طعم الإيمان وحلاوته: أن يكون اللَّه ورسوله أحب إليه مما سواهما، وأن يحب في اللَّه وأن يبغض في اللَّه، وأن لو (أوقدت) (١) له نار يقع فيها أحب إليه من أن يشرك باللَّه (٢).
It is narrated from Hazrat Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: There are three things; whoever possesses them will taste the sweetness of faith: That Allah and His Messenger ﷺ are more beloved to him than anything else; that he loves and hates for the sake of Allah; and that if a fire were kindled for him into which he would be thrown, this would be more beloved to him than associating partners with Allah.
