حَدِيثُ مَيْمُونَةَ زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ
Hadith of Maymunah, wife of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)
Musnad Abi Ya'la 7087 — the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Allah
حَدَّثَنَا الْعَبَّاسُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ ، حَدَّثَنَا يُوسُفُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ ، عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ عَطَاءَ بْنَ يَسَارٍ يُحَدِّثُ ، عَنْ مَيْمُونَةَ زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - قَالَ : قَالَ اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ : مَنْ آذَى لِي وَلِيًّا فَقَدِ اسْتَحَقَّ مُحَارَبَتِي ، وَمَا تَقَرَّبَ إِلَيَّ عَبْدٌ بِمِثْلِ أَدَاءِ فَرَائِضِي ، وَإِنَّهُ لَيَتَقَرَّبُ إِلَيَّ بِالنَّوَافِلِ حَتَّى أُحِبَّهُ ، فَإِذَا أَحْبَبْتُهُ كُنْتُ رِجْلَهُ الَّتِي يَمْشِي بِهَا ، وَيَدَهُ الَّتِي يَبْطِشُ بِهَا ، وَلِسَانَهُ الَّذِي يَنْطِقُ بِهِ ، وَقَلْبَهُ الَّذِي يَعْقِلُ بِهِ ، إِنْ سَأَلَنِي أَعْطَيْتُهُ ، وَإِنْ دَعَانِي أَجَبْتُهُ ، وَمَا تَرَدَّدْتُ عَنْ شَيْءٍ أَنَا فَاعِلُهُ كَتَرَدُّدِي عَنْ مَوْتِهِ ، وَذَاكَ أَنَّهُ يَكْرَهُهُ وَأَنَا أَكْرَهُ مَسَاءَتَهُ .
It is narrated from Sayyidah Maymunah (may Allah be pleased with her) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, says: 'Whoever harms a friend (wali) of Mine has invited My declaration of war against him. My servant does not draw near to Me with anything greater than the performance of the acts of worship I have made obligatory, and My servant keeps drawing near to Me through voluntary deeds until I love him. Then, when I love him, I become his feet with which he walks, his hands with which he grasps, his tongue with which he speaks, and his heart with which he understands. If he asks Me, I will surely give him, and if he calls upon Me, I answer his call. And I have never hesitated in anything I intend to do as I hesitate at the death of My servant, because he dislikes death and I dislike to grieve him.'"
