Musnad of Anas bin Malik
Musnad Abi Ya'la 4192 — he said: I have not seen anyone more merciful
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الرَّبِيعِ الزَّهْرَانِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَيُّوبُ ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ ، قَالَ : مَا رَأَيْتُ أَحَدًا أَرْحَمَ بِالْعِيَالِ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - وَكَانَ اسْتَرْضَعَ لِابْنِهِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بِأَقْصَى الْمَدِينَةِ ، وَكَانَ زَوْجُهَا قَيْنًا ، وَكَانَ يَأْتِيهِ ، فَيَأْتِيهِ الْغُلَامُ وَعَلَيْهِ أَثَرُ الدُّخَانِ فَيَلْتَزِمُهُ وَيُقَبِّلُهُ وَيَشُمُّهُ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: "I have not seen anyone more merciful and kind to his family than the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). His son Sayyiduna Ibrahim (may Allah be pleased with him) was staying (for nursing) at the far edge of Madinah, and the husband of his wet-nurse was a blacksmith. He (peace and blessings be upon him) would go there, and the child would be brought to him with traces of the smoke (of the furnace) on him, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) would hug him to his chest, kiss him and smell him."
