حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ، حَدَّثَنَا وَهْبُ بْنُ جَرِيرٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ زَيْدٍ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، أَنَّ امْرَأَةً، مِنَ الأَنْصَارِ أَتَتِ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم مَعَهَا أَوْلاَدٌ لَهَا فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم " وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ إِنَّكُمْ لأَحَبُّ النَّاسِ إِلَىَّ " . قَالَهَا ثَلاَثَ مِرَارٍ.
Translation
Ishaq narrated to us; Wahb ibn Jarir narrated to us; Shu'bah informed us, from Hisham ibn Zayd, from Anas ibn Malik, that a woman from the Ansar came to the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, with her children. The Prophet said: ‘By the One in whose hand is my soul, you are the people most beloved to me.’ He said it three times.
