حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ أَبِي خَيْثَمَةَ ثنا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْمُؤْمِنِ الْوَاسِطِيُّ ثنا عَوْنُ بْنُ عُمَارَةَ ثنا بِشْرٌ مَوْلَى بَنِي هَاشِمٍ عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ الْأَعْمَشِ عَنْ أَبِي وَائِلٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ قَالَ
كُنَّا عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَأَقْبَلَ رَاكِبٌ حَتَّى أَنَاخَ بِالنَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنِّي أَتَيْتُكَ مِنْ مَسِيرَةِ تِسْعٍ أَنْصَبْتُ بَدَنِي وَأَسْهَرْتُ لِيَلِي وَأَظْمَأْتُ نَهَارِي؛ لِأَسْأَلَكَ عَنْ خَلَّتَيْنِ أَسْهَرَتَانِي فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «مَا اسْمُكَ؟» فَقَالَ أَنَا زَيْدُ الْخَيْلِ قَالَ «بَلْ أَنْتَ زَيْدُ الْخَيْرِ» قَالَ أَسْأَلُكَ عَنْ عَلَامَةِ اللهِ فِيمَنْ يُرِيدُ وَعَنْ عَلَامَتِهِ فِيمَنْ لَا يُرِيدُ إِنِّي أُحِبُّ الْخَيْرَ وَأَهْلَهُ وَمَنْ يَعْمَلُ بِهِ وَإِنْ عَمِلْتُ بِهِ أَيْقَنْتُ ثَوَابَهُ فَإِنْ فَاتَنِي مِنْهُ شَيْءٌ حَنَنْتُ إِلَيْهِ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «عَلَامَةُ اللهِ فِيمَنْ يُرِيدُ وَعَلَامَتُهُ فِيمَنْ لَا يُرِيدُ لَوْ أَرَادَكَ فِي الْأُخْرَى هَيَّأَكَ لَهَا ثُمَّ لَمْ يُبَالِ فِي أَيِّ وَادٍ سَلَكْتَ»

✧ We were with the Prophet ﷺ when a rider came and made his camel kneel by the Prophet ﷺ and said: O Messenger of God, I have come to you from a journey of nine days; I have exhausted my body, stayed awake through my nights, and gone thirsty through my days to ask you about two traits that keep me awake. The Messenger of God ﷺ said to him: “What is your name?” He said: I am Zayd al-Khayl. He said: “Rather, you are Zayd al-Khayr.” He said: I ask you about God's sign regarding one whom He wills good for and His sign regarding one whom He does not will good for. I love good and its people and those who act upon it, and if I act upon it I am certain of its reward, and if I miss anything of it I long for it. The Prophet ﷺ said: “God's sign regarding one whom He wills good for and His sign regarding one whom He does not will good for is: if He willed good for you in the Hereafter, He would prepare you for it, then He would not care in which valley you go.”
