English translation

[6929] 88 - (2733) It was narrated that Šafwân – who was the son of 'Abdullâh bin Šafwân, and Umm Ad-Dardâ' was married to him[1] – said: I came to Ash-Shâm, and I went to the house of Abû Ad-Dardâ' but I did not find him there, but I found Umm Ad-Dardâ' there. She said: Do you intend to go for Hajj this year? I said: Yes. She said: Pray to Allâh for good for us, for the Prophet ﷺ used to say: "A Muslim's prayer for his brother in his absence will be answered. At his head there is an angel who is appointed, and when he prays for good for his brother, the angel who is appointed says: Âmîn, and you will have something similar.'"

Arabic text

88 - (2733) حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، أَخْبَرَنَا عِيسَى بْنُ يُونُسَ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ بْنُ أَبِي سُلَيْمَانَ، عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ، عَنْ صَفْوَانَ وَهُوَ ابْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ صَفْوَانَ، وَكَانَتْ تَحْتَهُ الدَّرْدَاءُ، قَالَ: قَدِمْتُ الشَّامَ، فَأَتَيْتُ أَبَا الدَّرْدَاءِ فِي مَنْزِلِهِ، فَلَمْ أَجِدْهُ وَوَجَدْتُ أُمَّ الدَّرْدَاءِ، فَقَالَتْ: أَتُرِيدُ الْحَجَّ الْعَامَ، فَقُلْتُ: نَعَمْ، قَالَتْ: فَادْعُ اللهَ لَنَا بِخَيْرٍ، فَإِنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ يَقُولُ: " دَعْوَةُ الْمَرْءِ الْمُسْلِمِ لِأَخِيهِ بِظَهْرِ الْغَيْبِ مُسْتَجَابَةٌ، عِنْدَ رَأْسِهِ مَلَكٌ مُوَكَّلٌ كُلَّمَا دَعَا لِأَخِيهِ بِخَيْرٍ، قَالَ الْمَلَكُ الْمُوَكَّلُ بِهِ: آمِينَ وَلَكَ بِمِثْلٍ "
