حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ ثنا حَجَّاجُ بْنُ الْمِنْهَالِ ثنا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ زَيْدٍ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ أَنَّ الْأَحْنَفَ بْنَ قَيْسٍ قَالَ بَيْنَمَا أَنَا أَطُوفُ بِالْبَيْتِ زَمَنَ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عَفَّانَ ؓ إِذْ أَخَذَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ بَنِي لَيْثٍ يَدِي فَقَالَ أَلَا أُبَشِّرُكَ؟ فَقُلْتُ بَلَى فَقَالَ

هَلْ تَذْكُرُ إِذْ بَعَثَنِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِلَى قَوْمِكَ بَنِي سَعْدٍ فَجَعَلْتُ أَعْرِضُ عَلَيْهِمُ الْإِسْلَامَ وَأَدْعُوهُمْ إِلَيْهِ فَقُلْتُ أَنْتَ إِنَّهُ يَدْعُو إِلَى الْخَيْرِ وَيَأْمُرُ بِهِ إِنَّهُ لَيَدْعُو إِلَى الْخَيْرِ وَيَأْمُرُ بِهِ فَبَلَّغْتُ ذَلِكَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالَ «اللهُمَّ اعْقِدِ لِلْأَحْنَفِ» فَكَانَ الْأَحْنَفُ يَقُولُ «مَا مِنْ عَمَلِي شَيْءٌ أَرْجَى لِي مِنْهُ»

✧ Do you remember when the Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent me to your people, Banu Sa'd, and I began presenting Islam to them and calling them to it? I said, 'Indeed, he calls to good and commands it. Indeed, he calls to good and commands it.' So I conveyed that to the Prophet ﷺ, and he said: 'O Allah, bind [good] for al-Ahnaf.' And al-Ahnaf used to say: 'There is nothing among my deeds that I hope for more than this.'"
