أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، قَالَ: نا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ، إِمْلَاءً، قَالَ: أنا صَالِحُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الرَّازِيُّ، قَالَ: نا عَبْدُ الْأَعْلَى بْنُ حَمَّادٍ، قَالَ: نا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ ثَابِتٍ، عَنْ أَبِي رَافِعٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ،
عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ: " أَنَّ رَجُلًا زَارَ أَخًا لَهُ فِي قَرْيَةٍ، فَأَرْصَدَ اللهُ عَلَى مَدْرَجَتِهِ مَلَكًا، فَلَمَّا أَتَى عَلَيْهِ، قَالَ: أَيْنَ تُرِيدُ؟، قَالَ: أُرِيدُ أَخًا لِي مِنْ هَذِهِ الْقَرْيَةِ، فَقَالَ لَهُ: هَلْ عَلَيْكَ مِنْ نِعْمَةٍ تَرُبُّهَا؟ قَالَ: لَا، غَيْرَ أَنِّي أَحْبَبْتُهُ فِي اللهِ، قَالَ: فَإِنِّي رَسُولُ اللهِ إِلَيْكَ بِأَنَّ اللهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ قَدْ أَحَبَّكَ كَمَا أَحْبَبْتَهُ فِيهِ "
