حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ ، قََالَ : حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ ، عَنْ ثَابِتٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي رَافِعٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ , عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " أَنَّ رَجُلًا زَارَ أَخًا لَهُ فِي قَرْيَةٍ أُخْرَى ، فَأَرْصَدَ اللَّهُ عَلَى مَدْرَجَتِهِ مَلَكًا ، فَقَالَ لَهُ : أَيْنَ تَذْهَبُ ؟ قَالَ : أَزُورُ أَخًا لِي فِي اللَّهِ فِي قَرْيَةِ كَذَا وَكَذَا ، قَالَ : هَلْ لَهُ عَلَيْكَ مِنْ نِعْمَةٍ تَرُبُّهَا ؟ قَالَ : لَا , وَلَكِنَّنِي أَحْبَبْتُهُ فِي اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ ، قَالَ : فَإِنِّي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ إِلَيْكَ ، أَنَّ اللَّهَ قَدْ أَحَبَّكَ كَمَا أَحْبَبْتَهُ فِيهِ " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: A man set out to visit his religious brother who lived in another town. Allah appointed an angel on his way. When he passed by the angel, the angel asked him, "Where are you going?" He replied, "I am going to meet such-and-such a man." The angel asked, "Is there any kinship between you two?" He said, "No." The angel asked, "Has he done any favor to you which you are repaying?" He said, "No." The angel asked, "Then why are you going to him?" He said, "I love him for the sake of Allah's pleasure." The angel said, "I have been sent to you from Allah as a messenger to inform you that because of your love for him, Allah loves you."
