(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا
ابْنُ نُمَيْرٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا
الْأَعْمَشُ ، عَنْ
شَقِيقٍ ، قَالَ : قَالَ
عَبْدُ اللَّهِ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " مَا أَحَدٌ أَغْيَرَ مِنَ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ ، وَلِذَلِكَ حَرَّمَ الْفَوَاحِشَ ، وَمَا أَحَدٌ أَحَبَّ إِلَيْهِ الْمَدْحُ مِنَ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "No one is more possessive than Allah, and that is why He has forbidden indecent acts, both outward and inward. And no one loves to be praised more than Allah."
