حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ، عَنْ مُطَرِّفٍ، عَنْ عَامِرٍ، قَالَ: قَالَ شُرَيْحُ بْنُ هَانِئٍ: بَيْنَمَا أَنَا فِي مَسْجِدِ الْمَدِينَةِ إِذْ قَالَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ: سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ،، ، يَقُولُ: " لَا يُحِبُّ رَجُلٌ لِقَاءَ اللهِ إِلَّا أَحَبَّ اللهُ لِقَاءَهُ، وَلَا أَبْغَضَ رَجُلٌ لِقَاءَ اللهِ إِلَّا أَبْغَضَ اللهُ لِقَاءَهُ "، فَأَتَيْتُ عَائِشَةَ، فَقُلْتُ: لَئِنْ كَانَ مَا ذَكَرَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حَقًّا لَقَدْ هَلَكْنَا، فَقَالَتْ: إِنَّمَا الْهَالِكُ مَنْ هَلَكَ فِيمَا قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، وَمَا ذَاكَ؟ (١) قَالَ: قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: " لَا يُحِبُّ رَجُلٌ لِقَاءَ اللهِ إِلَّا أَحَبَّ اللهُ لِقَاءَهُ، وَلَا يَبْغَضُ رَجُلٌ لِقَاءَ اللهِ إِلَّا أَبْغَضَ اللهُ لِقَاءَهُ "، قَالَتْ: وَأَنَا أَشْهَدُ أَنِّي سَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ ذَلِكَ، وَهَلْ تَدْرِي لِمَ ذَلِكَ؟ إِذَا حَشْرَجَ الصَّدْرُ، وَطَمَحَ الْبَصَرُ، وَاقْشَعَرَّ الْجِلْدُ، وَتَشَنَّجَتِ الْأَصَابِعُ، فَعِنْدَ ذَلِكَ مَنْ أَحَبَّ لِقَاءَ اللهِ أَحَبَّ اللهُ لِقَاءَهُ، وَمَنْ أَبْغَضَ لِقَاءَ اللهِ، أَبْغَضَ اللهُ لِقَاءَهُ (٢)، ،

Translation

English translation

Shuraih bin Hani' (may Allah have mercy on him) says that once I was in the Prophet's Mosque when Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I heard the Prophet (ﷺ) say: Whoever likes to meet Allah, Allah also likes to meet him, and whoever dislikes to meet Allah, Allah also dislikes to meet him. Hearing this, I went to Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) and said: If what Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) has mentioned from the Prophet (ﷺ) is correct, then we are doomed. Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) said: Only he is doomed who is doomed according to the saying of the Prophet (ﷺ). What is the matter? I mentioned to her the narration I had heard from Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him). She said: I bear witness that I also heard the Prophet (ﷺ) say this. Do you know why this is so? When hearts begin to tremble, eyes are dazzled, the skin of the body begins to shiver, and a convulsive state appears in the fingers (when the time of death approaches), at that time, whoever likes to meet Allah, Allah also likes to meet him, and whoever dislikes to meet Allah, Allah also dislikes to meet him.
