Abu Qilaba reported from Abu'l-Ash'ath as-San'ani that Abu Asma' said, "Whoever visits his brother is in a tent of the Garden." I (the transmitter) asked Abu Qilaba, "What is the tent of the Garden?" "Its fruits," he replied. I said to Abu Qilaba, "From whom did Asma' transmit?" "From Thawban from the Messenger of Allah , may Allah bless him and grant him peace," he replied.
حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَاحِدِ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَاصِمٌ، عَنْ أَبِي قِلاَبَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي الأَشْعَثِ الصَّنْعَانِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي أَسْمَاءَ قَالَ: مَنْ عَادَ أَخَاهُ كَانَ فِي خُرْفَةِ الْجَنَّةِ، قُلْتُ لأَبِي قِلاَبَةَ: مَا خُرْفَةُ الْجَنَّةِ؟ قَالَ: جَنَاهَا، قُلْتُ لأَبِي قِلاَبَةَ: عَنْ مَنْ حَدَّثَهُ أَبُو أَسْمَاءَ؟ قَالَ: عَنْ ثَوْبَانَ، عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم نحوه.
