Abū Kurayb Muḥammad ibn al-ʿAlāʾ narrated to us: al-Muḥāribī narrated to us, from ʿAṭāʾ ibn al-Sāʾib, from his father, from ʿAbd Allāh ibn ʿAmr, who said: A man came to the Messenger of God, peace and blessings be upon him, and said: “Messenger of God, I have come intending to strive in battle with you, seeking the Face of God and the Abode of the Hereafter. I came while my parents were weeping.” He said: “Go back to them and make them laugh, just as you made them weep.”
