أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، نَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ بَالَوَيْهِ، نَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ حَنْبَلٍ، نَا أَبِي، نَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حُمَيْدٍ الْمَعْمَرِيُّ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ الثَّوْرِيِّ، عَنْ شَيْخٍ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ
قَالَ: " إِذَا أَحْبَبْتُ رَجُلًا فِي اللهِ، ثُمَّ أَحْدَثَ فَلَمْ أَبْغَضْهُ، فَلَمْ أَكُنْ أَحْبَبْتُهُ فِي اللهِ "
