Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mughaffal (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Fear Allah regarding my companions, do not make them a target (of criticism). Whoever loves them, will love them because of his love for me, and whoever harbors enmity towards them, will do so because of his enmity towards me. Whoever causes them pain, has caused me pain, and whoever causes me pain, has (as if) caused Allah Almighty pain. And whoever causes Allah Almighty pain, soon Allah Almighty will seize him." (Imam Ibn Hibban, may Allah have mercy on him, says:) This narrator named Abdullah bin Abdur Rahman is a Rumi Basri, from whom Hammad bin Zaid has narrated traditions. He passed away before Ayyub Sakhtiyani.
