Sunan at-Tirmithiy كتاب الزهد باب ما جاء فى الحب فى الله
حَدَّثَنَا الأَنْصَارِىُّ حَدَّثَنَا مَعْنٌ حَدَّثَنَا مَالِكٌ عَنْ خُبَيْبِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ عَنْ حَفْصِ بْنِ عَاصِمٍ عَنْ أَبِى هُرَيْرَةَ أَوْ عَنْ أَبِى سَعِيدٍ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ سَبْعَةٌ يُظِلُّهُمُ اللَّهُ فِى ظِلِّهِ يَوْمَ لاَ ظِلَّ إِلاَّ ظِلُّهُ إِمَامٌ عَادِلٌ وَشَابٌّ نَشَأَ بِعِبَادَةِ اللَّهِ وَرَجُلٌ كَانَ قَلْبُهُ مُعَلَّقًا بِالْمَسْجِدِ إِذَا خَرَجَ مِنْهُ حَتَّى يَعُودَ إِلَيْهِ وَرَجُلاَنِ تَحَابَّا فِى اللَّهِ فَاجْتَمَعَا عَلَى ذَلِكَ وَتَفَرَّقَا وَرَجُلٌ ذَكَرَ اللَّهَ خَالِيًا فَفَاضَتْ عَيْنَاهُ وَرَجُلٌ دَعَتْهُ امْرَأَةٌ ذَاتُ حَسَبٍ وَجَمَالٍ فَقَالَ إِنِّى أَخَافُ اللَّهَ وَرَجُلٌ تَصَدَّقَ بِصَدَقَةٍ فَأَخْفَاهَا حَتَّى لاَ تَعْلَمَ شِمَالُهُ مَا تُنْفِقُ يَمِينُهُ. قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ. وَهَكَذَا رُوِىَ هَذَا الْحَدِيثُ عَنْ مَالِكِ بْنِ أَنَسٍ مِنْ غَيْرِ وَجْهٍ مِثْلَ هَذَا وَشَكَّ فِيهِ وَقَالَ عَنْ أَبِى هُرَيْرَةَ أَوْ عَنْ أَبِى سَعِيدٍ وَعُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ رَوَاهُ عَنْ خُبَيْبِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ وَلَمْ يَشُكَّ فِيهِ يَقُولُ عَنْ أَبِى هُرَيْرَةَ.
The Messenger of God, peace and blessings of God be upon him, said, "There are seven whom God will shade under His shade on the day when there is no shade except His: a just ruler; a youth raised on the worship of God; a man (1) whose heart remains attached to the mosque from the moment he leaves until he returns; two men who love each other for God's sake, meeting for that and parting upon it; a man who remembers God when he is alone and his eyes flood with tears; a man [who is] invited by a woman of status and beauty [for illegal intercourse], but he says, 'I fear God'; and a man who gives in charity so secretly that his left hand does not know what his right hand has given."
