أَخْبَرَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ دَاوُدَ عَنِ ابْنِ وَهْبٍ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي عَمْرٌو عَنْ سَعِيدٍ أَنَّ أَبَا الرِّجَالِ مُحَمَّدَ بْنَ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ حَدَّثَهُ عَنْ أُمِّهِ عَمْرَةَ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ بَعَثَ رَجُلًا عَلَى سَرِيَّةٍ وَكَانَ يَقْرَأُ لِأَصْحَابِهِ فِي صَلَاتِهِمْ فَيَخْتِمُ بِ {قُلْ هُوَ اللهُ أَحَدٌ} [الإخلاص 1] فَلَمَّا رَجَعُوا ذَكَرُوا ذَلِكَ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ «سَلُوهُ لِأَيِّ شَيْءٍ صَنَعَ ذَلِكَ؟» فَسَأَلُوهُ فَقَالَ إِنَّهَا صِفَةُ الرَّحْمَنِ فَأَنَا أُحِبُّ أَنْ أَقْرَأَ بِهَا قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «أَخْبِرُوهُ أَنَّ اللهَ يُحِبُّهُ»

✧ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent a man on a military expedition, and he used to recite for his companions in their prayer and conclude with {Say: He is Allah, the One} [al-Ikhlas: 1]. When they returned, they mentioned that to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. He said: 'Ask him why he did that.' They asked him, and he said: 'Because it is the description of the Most Merciful, and I love to recite it.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'Tell him that Allah loves him.'"
