Hadith 369
أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عِمْرَانَ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ يَمَانٍ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ سُفْيَانَ مُنْذُ أَرْبَعِينَ سَنَةً، قَالَ: "مَا كَانَ طَلَبُ الْحَدِيثِ أَفْضَلَ مِنْهُ الْيَوْمَ، قَالُوا لِسُفْيَانَ: إِنَّهُمْ يَطْلُبُونَهُ بِغَيْرِ نِيَّةٍ ؟، قَالَ: طَلَبُهُمْ إِيَّاهُ نِيَّةٌ".
Yahya bin Yaman said: I heard Sufyan, may Allah have mercy on him, saying for forty years: Seeking hadith has never been more virtuous than it is today. People asked Sufyan, may Allah have mercy on him: People seek hadith without intention. He said: Their seeking itself is the intention.
Hadith 370
أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ الْأَجْلَحِ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي، عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ، قَالَ: "طَلَبْنَا هَذَا الْعِلْمَ وَمَا لَنَا فِيهِ كَبِيرُ نِيَّةٍ، ثُمَّ رَزَقَ اللَّهُ بَعْدُ فِيهِ النِّيَّةَ".
Mujahid (may Allah have mercy on him) said: We sought this knowledge without any great intention, then Allah the Exalted later granted us (righteous) intention.
Hadith 371
أَخْبَرَنَا بِشْرُ بْنُ ثَابِتٍ الْبَزَّارُ، حَدَّثَنَا حَسَّانُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ، عَنْ يُونُسَ بْنِ عُبَيْدٍ، عَنْ الْحَسَنِ، قَالَ: "لَقَدْ طَلَبَ أَقْوَامٌ الْعِلْمَ، مَا أَرَادُوا بِهِ اللَّهَ تعَالَيَ وَلَا مَا عِنْدَهُ، قَالَ: فَمَا زَالَ بِهِمْ الْعِلْمُ، حَتَّى أَرَادُوا بِهِ اللَّهَ وَمَا عِنْدَهُ".
Imam Hasan al-Basri (may Allah have mercy on him) said: People sought knowledge even though, by means of it, they did not intend Allah nor what is with Allah. He said: They continued to acquire knowledge until their intention became sincere, and they intended Allah and what is with Allah.
