Jami' at-Tirmidhi — Hadith #28007

Qutayba bin Saeed narrated to us, Al-Layth narrated to us, on the authority of Muawiyah bin Salih, on the authority of Abu Taloot, he said: I entered Anas bin Malik while he was eating. He knocked while saying, “Oh, you tree. I love you only because of the love of the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace.” He said, and in the chapter on the authority of Hakim ibn Jabir, on the authority of His father. Abu Issa said: This is a strange hadith from this perspective.
