حَدَّثَنَا جَعْفَرُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْفِرْيَابِيُّ ثنا هِشَامُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ ثنا صَدَقَةُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ ثنا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي الْعَاتِكَةِ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ يَزِيدَ عَنِ الْقَاسِمِ عَنْ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ
عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ «مَنْ أَهَانَ لِي وَلِيًّا فَقَدْ بَارَزَنِي بِالْعَدَاوَةِ ابْنَ آدَمَ لَنْ تُدْرِكَ مَا عِنْدِي إِلَّا بِأَدَاءِ مَا افْتَرَضْتُ عَلَيْكَ وَلَا يَزَالُ عَبْدِي يَتَحَبَّبُ إِلَيَّ بِالنَّوَافِلِ حَتَّى أُحِبَّهُ فَأَكُونَ قَلْبَهُ الَّذِي يَعْقِلُ بِهِ وَلِسَانَهُ الَّذِي يَنْطِقُ بِهِ وَبَصَرَهُ الَّذِي يُبْصِرُ بِهِ فَإِذَا دَعَانِي أَجَبْتُهُ وَإِذَا سَأَلَنِي أَعْطَيْتُهُ وَإِذَا اسْتَنْصَرَنِي نَصَرْتُهُ وَأَحَبُّ عِبَادَةِ عَبْدِي إِلَيَّ النَّصِيحَةُ»

✧ Narrated by the Prophet Muhammad, ﷺ: "Whoever humiliates a friend of mine, he has declared war against me. You will not comprehend what I possess except by fulfilling what I have obligated upon you. My servant continues to approach me with voluntary acts of worship until I love him, and when I love him, I become the hearing with which he hears, the sight with which he sees, and the hand with which he grasps. If he calls upon Me, I answer him, and if he seeks My help, I assist him. And the most beloved type of worship to me is providing sincere advice to My servant."
