حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ الْخَلالُ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ السَّيْلَحَانِيُّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا لَيْثُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ أَبِي حَبِيبٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ، قَالَ: مَا كَانَ ضَحِكُ رَسُولِ اللهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم إِلا تَبَسُّمًا..
Abdullah ibn al-Harith said (may Allah be well pleased with him):
“The laughter of Allah’s Messenger (Allah bless him and give him peace) was nothing but a joyful smile.”
