[7439] 17 - (2969) It was narrated that Anas bin Mâlik said: “We were with the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ and he smiled. He said: ‘Do you know why I am smiling?’ We said: 'Allâh and His Messenger know best.' He said: 'Because of the conversation that a slave will have with his Lord. He will say: "O Lord, did You not guarantee me protection from injustice?" He will say: "Yes." He will say: "I do not deem valid any witness against me but my own self." He will say: "Your own self will be sufficient as a witness against you this Day, and the witness of the two recording angels." Then a seal will be placed on his mouth, and it will be said to his limbs: "Speak." And they will speak of his deeds. Then he will be allowed to speak, and he will say (to his limbs): "Away with you and may the curse of Allâh be upon you! It was on your behalf that I contended."

17 - (2969) حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ النَّضْرِ بْنِ أَبِي النَّضْرِ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو النَّضْرِ هَاشِمُ بْنُ الْقَاسِمِ، حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللهِ الْأَشْجَعِيُّ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ الثَّوْرِيِّ، عَنْ عُبَيْدٍ الْمُكْتِبِ، عَنْ فُضَيْلٍ، عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، قَالَ: كُنَّا عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَضَحِكَ، فَقَالَ: «هَلْ تَدْرُونَ مِمَّ أَضْحَكُ؟» قَالَ قُلْنَا: اللهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَعْلَمُ، قَالَ: " مِنْ مُخَاطَبَةِ الْعَبْدِ رَبَّهُ، يَقُولُ: يَا رَبِّ أَلَمْ تُجِرْنِي مِنَ الظُّلْمِ؟ قَالَ: يَقُولُ: بَلَى، قَالَ: فَيَقُولُ: فَإِنِّي لَا أُجِيزُ عَلَى نَفْسِي إِلَّا شَاهِدًا مِنِّي، قَالَ: فَيَقُولُ: كَفَى بِنَفْسِكَ الْيَوْمَ عَلَيْكَ شَهِيدًا، وَبِالْكِرَامِ الْكَاتِبِينَ شُهُودًا، قَالَ: فَيُخْتَمُ عَلَى فِيهِ، فَيُقَالُ لِأَرْكَانِهِ: انْطِقِي، قَالَ: فَتَنْطِقُ بِأَعْمَالِهِ، قَالَ: ثُمَّ يُخَلَّى بَيْنَهُ وَبَيْنَ الْكَلَامِ، قَالَ فَيَقُولُ: بُعْدًا لَكُنَّ وَسُحْقًا، فَعَنْكُنَّ كُنْتُ أُنَاضِلُ "
