سَمِعْتُ أَبَا خَلِيفَةَ يَقُولُ سَمِعْتُ عَبْدَ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنَ بَكْرِ بْنِ الرَّبِيعِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ يَقُولُ سَمِعْتُ الرَّبِيعَ بْنَ مُسْلِمٍ يَقُولُ سَمِعْتُ مُحَمَّدًا يَقُولُ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ يَقُولُ
مَرَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَلَى رَهْطٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ وَهُمْ يَضْحَكُونَ فَقَالَ «لَوْ تَعْلَمُونَ مَا أَعْلَمُ لَضَحِكْتُمْ قَلِيلًا وَلَبَكَيْتُمْ كَثِيرًا» فَأَتَاهُ جِبْرِيلُ فَقَالَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ يَقُولُ لَكَ لِمَ تُقَنِّطُ عِبَادِي؟ قَالَ فَرَجَعَ إِلَيْهِمْ فَقَالَ «سَدِّدُوا وَقَارِبُوا وَأَبْشِرُوا»

the Messenger of Allah ﷺ passed by a group of his Companions and they were laughing. Thereupon, he said, "If you ˹only˺ knew what I know, you would laugh little and weep a lot." Then Jibrīl came to him and said, "Allah says to you, 'Why are you putting my servants in despair?'" He said that he returned back to them then said, "Attempt moderation ˹in your actions as you˺ rejoice."
