2766. It was narrated that 'Abdullâh bin Zubair said: "Uthmân bin 'Affân addressed the people and said: 'O people! I heard a Hadith from the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ and nothing kept me from narrating it to you except for the fact that I did not want to lose you and your companionship. So it is up to you. I heard the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ saying: "Whoever spends a night guarding the frontier in the cause of Allâh, it will be like a thousand nights spent in fasting and prayer." (Da'if)

Arabic text

2766 - حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ مُصْعَبِ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ، قَالَ: خَطَبَ عُثْمَانُ بْنُ عَفَّانَ النَّاسَ فَقَالَ: يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ، إِنِّي سَمِعْتُ حَدِيثًا مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَمْ يَمْنَعْنِي أَنْ أُحَدِّثَكُمْ بِهِ إِلَّا الضِّنُّ بِكَمْ وَبِصَحَابَتِكُمْ، فَلْيَخْتَرْ مُخْتَارٌ لِنَفْسِهِ أَوْ لِيَدَعْ، سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: «مَنْ رَابَطَ لَيْلَةً فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ سُبْحَانَهُ، كَانَتْ كَأَلْفِ لَيْلَةٍ صِيَامِهَا وَقِيَامِهَا»
