عربی (اصل)
حَدَّثَنَا سُرَيجٌ حَدَّثَنَا عَبَّادٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ الْعَوَّامِ عَنِ الْحَجَّاجِ عَنِ الْحَكَمِ عَنِ مِقْسَمٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ خَطَبَ مَيْمُونَةَ بِنْتَ الْحَارِثِ فَجَعَلَتْ أَمْرَهَا إِلَى الْعَبَّاسِ فَزَوَّجَهَا النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ.

The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: 'If I were to take anyone from this ummah as a khalil (intimate friend), I would have taken Abu Bakr. But he is my brother in Islam. And your companion is the khalil of Allah.'
