Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 37750 — Khaythamah bin Abd al-Rahman

Al-A'mash narrates concerning Khaythamah; he said that his people used to cause him harm. He said: "These people harm me, whereas it has never happened, by Allah, that any of them asked me for something he needed except that I fulfilled it, and I do not cause harm to any of them. But (even so) I am more hated by them than a black dog. And why do these people think this way? It is only because, by Allah, a hypocrite never loves a believer."
