٢٣٠٩ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌مَحْمُودُ بْنُ غَيْلَانَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌أَبُو دَاوُدَ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا ‌شُعْبَةُ ، عَنْ ‌قَتَادَةَ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ ‌أَنَسًا يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ ‌عُبَادَةَ بْنِ الصَّامِتِ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «مَنْ أَحَبَّ لِقَاءَ» اللهِ أَحَبَّ اللهُ لِقَاءَهُ، وَمَنْ كَرِهَ لِقَاءَ اللهِ كَرِهَ اللهُ لِقَاءَهُ وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، وَعَائِشَةَ، وَأَنَسٍ، وَأَبِي مُوسَى. حَدِيثُ عُبَادَةَ حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ.

Commentary

The Hadīth has already been discussed at some length under the Chapter on Funerals. In fact, the love or aversion mentioned in the Hadīth happens when man begins to see glimpses of the approaching destiny.
