Hadith 2350

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَمْرِو بْنِ نَبْهَانَ بْنِ صَفْوَانَ الثَّقَفِيُّ الْبَصْرِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا رَوْحُ بْنُ أَسْلَمَ، حَدَّثَنَا شَدَّادٌ أَبُو طَلْحَةَ الرَّاسِبِيُّ، عَنْ أَبِي الْوَازِعِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مُغَفَّلٍ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَجُلٌ لِلنَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ وَاللَّهِ إِنِّي لَأُحِبُّكَ ، فَقَالَ : " انْظُرْ مَاذَا تَقُولُ ؟ " قَالَ : وَاللَّهِ إِنِّي لَأُحِبُّكَ ، فَقَالَ : " انْظُرْ مَاذَا تَقُولُ ؟ " قَالَ : وَاللَّهِ إِنِّي لَأُحِبُّكَ , ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ ، فَقَالَ : " إِنْ كُنْتَ تُحِبُّنِي فَأَعِدَّ لِلْفَقْرِ تِجْفَافًا , فَإِنَّ الْفَقْرَ أَسْرَعُ إِلَى مَنْ يُحِبُّنِي مِنَ السَّيْلِ إِلَى مُنْتَهَاهُ " .
‘Abdullah bin Mughaffal (may Allah be pleased with him) reports that a man said to the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him): “O Messenger of Allah! By Allah, I love you.” The Prophet said: “Consider carefully what you are saying.” He again said: “By Allah, I love you.” The Prophet said: “Consider carefully what you are saying.” He again said: “By Allah, I love you.” He said this three times, so the Prophet said: “If you truly love me, then prepare yourself for poverty, for indeed poverty rushes towards the one who wishes to befriend me faster than a flood flows towards its destination.”
حَدَّثَنَا نَصْرُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي، عَنْ شَدَّادٍ أَبِي طَلْحَةَ نَحْوَهُ بِمَعْنَاهُ , قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى : هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ ، وَأَبُو الْوَازِعِ الرَّاسِبِيُّ اسْمُهُ : جَابِرُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو وَهُوَ بَصْرِيٌّ .
