حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُبَارَكٌ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ

عَنِ الأَسْوَدِ بْنِ سَرِيعٍ قَالَ كُنْتُ شَاعِرًا فَأَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقُلْتُ أَلاَ أُنْشِدُكَ مَحَامِدَ حَمِدْتُ بِهَا رَبِّي؟ قَالَ إِنَّ رَبَّكَ يُحِبُّ الْمَحَامِدَ وَلَمْ يَزِدْنِي عَلَيْهِ

Translation

✧ From al-Aswad b. Sari', who said: I was a poet, so I came to the Prophet ﷺ and said: "Shall I recite to you praises with which I have praised my Lord?" He said: "Indeed, your Lord loves praise," and he did not add anything to it.
