Sayyiduna Abdullah bin al-Harith narrates from Sayyiduna Abbas bin Abd al-Muttalib (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: I said: O Messenger of Allah! Indeed, when Quraysh meet one another they meet with cheerful faces, and when they meet us they meet us with faces we do not recognise (that is, they turn their faces away). The narrator says: At this the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) became intensely angry and said: "By the One in whose hand is the soul of Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him)! Faith cannot enter the heart of any man until he loves you for the sake of Allah and His Messenger." I have mentioned part of this under the virtues of al-Hasan and al-Husayn (may Allah be pleased with them both) in "The Virtues of the Household of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)", and by mentioning al-Muttalib bin Rabi'ah and those who dropped him from the chain, I have made clear the hidden defects ('ilal) of this hadith; so there is no need to repeat it in this place.
