حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ الْأَوْدِيُّ، قَالَ: نَا وَكِيعٌ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مُرَّةَ، عَنْ أَبِي الْأَحْوَصِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ:
أَلَا إِنِّي أَبْرَأُ إِلَى كُلِّ خَلِيلٍ مِنْ خِلِّهِ، وَلَوْ كُنْتُ مُتَّخِذًا خَلِيلًا لَاتَّخَذْتُ أَبَا بَكْرٍ خَلِيلًا، وَلَكِنَّ صَاحِبَكُمْ خَلِيلُ اللهِ، يَعْنِي نَفْسَهُ

✧ Indeed, I declare myself free to every close friend from his close friendship. If I were to take a close friend, I would have taken Abu Bakr as a close friend. But your companion is the close friend of Allah, meaning himself.
