Musnad Abi Ya'la 3035 — the Companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ ، أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ، قَالَ : قَالَ أَصْحَابُ النَّبِيِّ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، إِنَّا إِذَا كُنَّا عِنْدَكَ رَأَيْنَا فِي أَنْفُسِنَا مَا نُحِبُّ ، وَإِذَا رَجَعْنَا إِلَى أَهْلِينَا فَخَالَطْنَاهُمْ أَنْكَرْنَا أَنْفُسَنَا ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : لَوْ تَدُومُونَ عَلَى مَا تَكُونُونَ عِنْدِي فِي الْخَلَاءِ لَصَافَحَتْكُمُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ حَتَّى تُظِلَّكُمْ بِأَجْنِحَتِهَا عِيَانًا ، وَلَكِنْ سَاعَةً وَسَاعَةً .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), when we are in your presence, we find in our hearts the state of faith that we love, but when we go back to our families and mix with them, we do not find in ourselves that same state as before." At this the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "If you were to persist, even in solitude, in the state you are in when with me, the angels would shake hands with you, until they would openly shade you with their wings. But (in human life) some time is for Allah and some time is for worldly needs."
