وَقَالَ الْحَارِثُ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحِيمِ بْنُ وَاقِدٍ، ثَنَا عَدِيُّ بْنُ الْفَضْلِ، عَنْ يُونُسَ بْنِ عُبَيْدٍ، عَنْ ثَابِتٍ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ - ؓ قَالَ:
كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مِنْ أَشَدِّ النَّاسِ لُطْفًا بِالنَّاسِ، وَاللهِ مَا كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَمْتَنِعُ فِي غَدَاةٍ بَارِدَةٍ مِنْ عَبْدٍ وَلَا أَمَةٍ وَلَا صَبِيٍّ أَنْ يَأْتِيَهُ بِالْمَاءِ، فَيَغْسِلَ وَجْهَهُ وَذِرَاعَيْهِ، وَمَا سَأَلَ سَائِلٌ قَطُّ أُذُنَهُ إِلَّا أَصْغَى إِلَيْهِ، وَلَا يَنْصَرِفُ عَنْهُ حَتَّى يَكُونَ هُوَ الَّذِي يَنْصَرِفُ، وَمَا تَنَاوَلَ آدَمِيٌّ يَدَهُ ﷺ قَطُّ إِلَّا آتَاهُ إِيَّاهَا، فَلَمْ يَدَعْهَا مِنْهُ حَتَّى يَكُونَ هُوَ الَّذِي يَدَعُهَا مِنْهُ

✧ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was among the gentlest of people with others. By Allah, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ never refused, on a cold morning, to accept water from a slave, a slave woman, or a child to wash his face and forearms. No one ever asked to whisper in his ear but that he inclined toward him, and he would not turn away until the other turned away. No human ever reached for his hand ﷺ but that he gave it to him, and he would not withdraw it until the other withdrew his.
