حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ حَدَّثَنَا عَاصِمٌ عَنْ زِرِّ بْنِ حُبَيْشٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ قَالَ
إِنَّ اللهَ نَظَرَ فِي قُلُوبِ الْعِبَادِ، فَوَجَدَ قَلْبَ مُحَمَّدٍ ﷺ خَيْرَ قُلُوبِ الْعِبَادِ، فَاصْطَفَاهُ لِنَفْسِهِ، فَابْتَعَثَهُ بِرِسَالَتِهِ، ثُمَّ نَظَرَ فِي قُلُوبِ الْعِبَادِ بَعْدَ قَلْبِ مُحَمَّدٍ، فَوَجَدَ قُلُوبَ أَصْحَابِهِ خَيْرَ قُلُوبِ الْعِبَادِ، فَجَعَلَهُمْ وُزَرَاءَ نَبِيِّهِ، يُقَاتِلُونَ عَلَى دِينِهِ، فَمَا رَأَى الْمُسْلِمُونَ حَسَنًا فَهُوَ عِنْدَ اللهِ حَسَنٌ، وَمَا رَأَوْا سَيِّئًا فَهُوَ عِنْدَ اللهِ سَيِّئٌ

✧ Indeed, Allah looked into the hearts of the servants and found the heart of Muhammad ﷺ to be the best of the hearts of the servants, so He chose him for Himself and sent him with His message. Then He looked into the hearts of the servants after the heart of Muhammad, and found the hearts of his companions to be the best of the hearts of the servants, so He made them the ministers of His Prophet, fighting for His religion. Thus, whatever the Muslims see as good is good with Allah, and whatever they see as evil is evil with Allah.

machine translationʿĀṣim narrates it, and there is disagreement about him. Abū Bakr b. ʿAyyāsh and Ibn ʿUyaynah narrated it from ʿĀṣim, from Zirr, from ʿAbdullāh. Al-Masʿūdī and Ḥamzah al-Zayyāt differed from them and narrated it from ʿĀṣim, from Abū Wāʾil, from ʿAbdullāh. Naṣīr b. Abī al-Ashʿath differed from them, narrating it from ʿĀṣim, from al-Musayyab b. Rāfiʿ and Muslim b. Ṣubayḥ, from ʿAbdullāh. Al-Aʿmash also narrated it, and there is disagreement about him: ʿAbd al-Salām b. Ḥarb said, from al-Aʿmash, from Shaqīq, from ʿAbdullāh, and Ibn ʿUyaynah said, from al-Aʿmash, from Mālik b. al-Ḥārith, from ʿAbdullāh.
