Shurahbil bin Simt called for Amr bin Abasa al-Sulami and said, "Ibn Absah, will you relate to me a hadith you yourself heard from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, without any addition or falsehood, and not narrated to you through anyone else who heard it from him?"He replied, "Yes. I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say that Allah says, 'My love is assured for those who love one another for My sake. My love is assured for those who show pure affection to one another for My sake. My love is assured for those who visit one another for My sake. My love is assured for those who give freely to one another for My sake. My love is assured for those who support one another for My sake.'"
إن شرحبيل بن السمط دعا عمرو بن عبسة السلمي فقال: يا ابن عبسة هل أنت محدثي حديثا سمعته أنت من رسول الله ﷺ ليس فيه تزيد ولا كذب ولا تحدثنيه عن آخر سمعه منه غيرك؟ قال: نعم سمعت رسول الله ﷺ يقول: إن الله عز وجل يقول: قد حقت محبتي للذين يتحابون من أجلي، وحقت محبتي للذين يتصافون من أجلي، وحقت محبتي للذين يتزاورون من أجلي، وحقت محبتي للذين يتباذلون من أجلي، وحقت محبتي للذين يتناصرون من أجلي.
Abdullah bin Mubarak reported it in Zuhd (716), and Ahmad (19438), both through the route of Abdul-Hameed bin Bahram, who said, Shahr bin Hawshab told me, who said, Abu Zabya told me, who said, then he related it.Its chain is hasan because of Shahr bin Hawshab, for his hadith is hasan when he does not contradict others and does not bring something that would be rejected of him, especially since the individual parts of this hadith of his have sound foundations. Abu Zabya, also said to be Abu Taybah, is the Salafi Kalai, whose hadith is also hasan. Ibn Main and Darimi both deemed him trustworthy, and Daraqutni said, "There is no harm in him." Munziri said in Targheeb (4566), "Ahmad reported it, and its narrators are trustworthy."
