Our Salaf: Bishr Ibn Al-Haarith-an example of humility
A man came to Bishr Ibn Al-Haarith (rahimahullaah) and kissed (his forehead), saying: O Abu Nasr my master! So when the man left, Bishr said to his companions: “A man loves another man based on news he presumes to (be true). And it may be that the one who has that love will be saved and the one who is loved does not know what his state of affairs will be.”
