أَوَّلُ مُسْنَدِ الْكُوفِيِّينَ، حَدِيثُ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ عَسَّالٍ الْمُرَادِيِّ (١)، ١٨٠٨٩ - حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَاصِمُ بْنُ بَهْدَلَةَ، عَنْ زِرِّ بْنِ حُبَيْشٍ، قَالَ: غَدَوْتُ عَلَى صَفْوَانَ بْنِ عَسَّالٍ الْمُرَادِيِّ أَسْأَلُهُ عَنِ الْمَسْحِ عَلَى الْخُفَّيْنِ، فَقَالَ: مَا جَاءَ بِكَ؟ قُلْتُ: ابْتِغَاءَ الْعِلْمِ، قَالَ: أَلَا أُبَشِّرُكَ؟ وَرَفَعَ الْحَدِيثَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: " إِنَّ الْمَلَائِكَةَ لَتَضَعُ أَجْنِحَتَهَا لِطَالِبِ الْعِلْمِ رِضًا بِمَا يَطْلُبُ " فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ (٢)، ،

Translation

English translation

Zirr bin Hubaish (may Allah have mercy on him) says that one day I went to Safwan bin Assal (may Allah be pleased with him) to ask about the ruling of wiping over leather socks. He asked, "What brings you here?" I said, "I have come in pursuit of knowledge." He said, "Shall I not give you glad tidings? The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: 'Allah's angels spread their wings for the seeker of knowledge, expressing happiness for what he seeks.'" Then he mentioned the entire hadith.
