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

✧ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ passed by a group of his Companions who were laughing. He said, “If you knew what I know, you would laugh little and weep much.” Then Jibril came to him and said, “Allah says to you, ‘Why do you make My servants despair?’” So he returned to them and said, “Aim for correctness and receive good tidings.”
