Hadith 23669

حَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا لَيْثٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ سَعْدٍ ، حَدَّثَنِي عُقَيْلٌ ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ ثَعْلَبَةَ بْنِ صُعَيْرٍ الْعُذْرِيِّ وَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَدْ مَسَحَ عَلَى وَجْهِهِ ، وَأَدْرَكَ أَصْحَابَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : كَانُوا يَنْهَوْنِي عَنِ الْقُبْلَةِ تَخَوُّفًا أَنْ أَتَقَرَّبَ لِأَكْثَرَ مِنْهَا ، ثُمَّ الْمُسْلِمُونَ الْيَوْمَ يَنْهَوْنَ عَنْهَا ، وَيَقُولُ قَائِلُهُمْ : إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ " لَهُ مِنْ حِفْظِ اللَّهِ مَا لَيْسَ لِأَحَدٍ " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Abdullah bin Thalabah (may Allah be pleased with him), upon whose face the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) placed his blessed hand, and who met the companions (may Allah be pleased with them) of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), that people used to prevent me from kissing my wife, fearing that I might go further than that. Now, today, other Muslims are also being prevented from this, and people say that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had a special protection from Allah which no one else had.
