Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 37885 — The words of Safwan bin Muhriz

Ghaylan bin Jarir reports about Safwan bin Muhriz. He said: Safwan and his brothers would gather and talk with one another, but they did not see any signs of tenderness. The narrator said: Then the people would say: "O Safwan, say something to your companions." The narrator said: Safwan would say: "Alhamdulillah (All praise is for Allah)." At this, tenderness would come over the people, and their tears would flow as though they were the mouths of water-skins.
