Musnad Abi Ya'la 3880 — Sometimes a man would ask the Prophet ﷺ
حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ بَكْرٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا حُمَيْدٌ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ، قَالَ : إِنْ كَانَ الرَّجُلُ لَيَسْأَلُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الشَّيْءَ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا فَيُسْلِمُ لَهُ ، ثُمَّ لَا يُمْسِي حَتَّى يَكُونَ الْإِسْلَامُ أَحَبَّ إِلَيْهِ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا وَمَا فِيهَا .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him): "Sometimes a man would ask the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) for some thing of this world and would accept Islam (for that worldly purpose), but then, before evening came, Islam would become dearer to him than the world and everything in it."
