حَدَّثَنَا الْعَبَّاسُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ، ثَنَا يُوسُفُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ عَطَاءَ بْنَ يَسَارٍ، يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ مَيْمُونَةَ: زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَتْ: إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ: قَالَ اللهُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى:
مَنْ آذَى لِي وَلِيًّا فَقَدِ اسْتَحَقَّ مُحَارَبَتِي، وَمَا تَقَرَّبَ إِلَيَّ عَبْدِي بِمِثْلِ أَدَاءِ فَرَائِضِي، وَإِنَّهُ لَيَتَقَرَّبُ إِلَيَّ بِالنَّوَافِلِ حَتَّى أُحِبَّهُ، فَإِذَا أَحْبَبْتُهُ كُنْتُ رِجْلَهُ الَّتِي يَمْشِي بِهَا، وَيَدَهُ الَّتِي يَبْطِشُ بِهَا، وَلِسَانَهُ الَّذِي يَنْطِقُ بِهِ، وَقَلْبَهُ الَّذِي يَعْقِلُ بِهِ، وَإِنْ سَأَلَنِي أَعْطَيْتُهُ، وَإِنْ دَعَانِي أَجَبْتُهُ، وَمَا تَرَدَّدْتُ عَنْ شَيْءٍ أَنَا فَاعِلُهُ كَتَرَدُّدِي عَنْ مَوْتِهِ، وَذَلِكَ أَنَّهُ يَكْرَهُهُ، وَأَنَا أَكْرَهُ مَسَاءَتَهُ

✧ Whoever harms a friend of Mine has declared war on Me. My servant does not draw near to Me with anything I love more than performing what I have made obligatory upon him. And My servant continues to draw near to Me with supererogatory deeds until I love him. When I love him, I am his leg with which he walks, his hand with which he strikes, his tongue with which he speaks, and his heart with which he reasons. If he asks Me, I will give him, and if he seeks My refuge, I will grant him refuge. I have never hesitated about anything I am going to do as I hesitate about taking his soul, because he hates it and I hate to displease him.
