أَخْبَرَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عَاصِمٍ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ هُوَ ابْنُ سَلَمَةَ عَنْ عَاصِمٍ عَنْ زِرٍّ قَالَ
غَدَوْتُ عَلَى صَفْوَانَ بْنِ عَسَّالٍ الْمُرَادِيِّ وَأَنَا أُرِيدُ أَنْ أَسْأَلَهُ عَنِ الْمَسْحِ عَلَى الْخُفَّيْنِ فَقَالَ مَا جَاءَ بِكَ؟ قُلْتُ ابْتِغَاءُ الْعِلْمِ قَالَ أَلَا أُبَشِّرُكَ؟ قُلْتُ بَلَى فَقَالَ رَفَعَ الْحَدِيثَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَقَالَ «إِنَّ الْمَلَائِكَةَ لَتَضَعُ أَجْنِحَتَهَا لِطَالِبِ الْعِلْمِ رِضًا بِمَا يَطْلُبُ»

✧ I went early to Safwan b. 'Assal al-Muradi intending to ask him about wiping over the leather socks. He said: What has brought you? I said: Seeking knowledge. He said: Shall I give you glad tidings? I said: Yes. He said: He traced the hadith back to the Prophet ﷺ and said: 'The angels lower their wings for the seeker of knowledge, pleased with what he seeks.'
