✧ A man from Murad called Safwan b. 'Assal came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ while he was in the mosque. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to him, “What has brought you?” He said, “Seeking knowledge.” He said, “Indeed, the angels lower their wings for the seeker of knowledge, pleased with what he does.” And he mentioned the hadith. 'Arim, who is Abu al-Nu'man Muhammad b. al-Fadl al-Basri, is a trustworthy hafiz. Al-Bukhari relied on him in a portion of this hadith, narrating it from him in the Sahih. Sinan b. Farrukh differed from him in this hadith, narrating it from al-Sa'q b. Hazn.
