(4). 3235. Mu‘ādḥ bin Jabal [may Allāh be pleased with him] said: “One morning, the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ was prevented from coming to us for Ṣalāt Aṣ-Ṣubh, until we were just about to look for the eye of the sun (meaning, sunrise). Then he came out quickly, had the Ṣalāt prepared for. The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ performed the Ṣalāt, and he performed his Ṣalāt in a relatively quick manner. When he said the Salām, he called aloud with his voice saying to us: ‘Stay in your rows as you are.’ Then he turned coming near to us, then he said: ‘I am going to narrate to you what kept me from you this morning: I got up during the night, I performed Wudū’ and prayed as much as I was able to, and I dozed
off during my Salāt, and fell deep asleep. Then I saw my Lord, Blessed and Most High, in the best of appearances. He said: 'O Muḥammad!' I said: 'My Lord here I am my Lord!' He said: 'What is it that the most exalted group busy themselves with?' I said: 'I do not know Lord.' And He said it three times." He said: "So I saw Him place His Palm between my shoulders, and I sensed the coolness of His Fingertips between my breast. Then everything was disclosed for me, and I became aware. So He said: 'O Muḥammad!' I said: 'Here I am my Lord!' He said: 'What is it that the most exalted group busy themselves with?' I said: 'In the acts that atone.' He said: 'And what are they?' I said: 'The footsteps to the congregation, the gatherings in the Masājid after the Salāt, Isbāgh Al-Wudū during difficulties.' He said: 'Then what else?' I said: 'Feeding others, being lenient in speech, and Salāt during the night while the people are sleeping.' He said: 'Ask.' I said: 'O Allāh! I ask of you the doing of good deeds, avoiding the evil deeds, loving the poor, and that You forgive me, and have mercy upon me. And when You have willed Fitnah in the people, then take me without the Fitnah. And I ask You for Your love, the love of whomever You love, and love of the deeds that bring one nearer to Your love.'" the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "Indeed it is true, so study it and learn it." (Hasan)
Abū 'Eisā said: This Ḥadīth is Ḥasan Ṣaḥīḥ. I asked Muḥammad bin Ismā'īl about this Ḥadīth, he said: This Ḥadīth is [Ḥasan] Ṣaḥīḥ." And he said: "This Ḥadīth is more correct than the narration of Al-Walīd bin Muslim, from 'Abdur-Raḥmān bin Yazīd bin Jābir. He said: Khālid bin Al-Lajlāj narrated to us: "'Abdur-Raḥmān bin 'Āish Al-Ḥaḍramī narrated to me. He said: 'The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said.'" And he mentioned the Ḥadīth, but this is not preserved. This is how Al-Walīd bin Muslim mentioned it in his narration: "From 'Abdur-Raḥmān bin 'Āish who said: 'I heard the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ'" And Bishr bin Bakr reported this Ḥadīth from 'Abdur-Raḥmān bin Yazīd bin Jābir, with this chain, from 'Abdur-Raḥmān bin 'Āish from the Prophet ﷺ. And this is more correct. And 'Abdur-Raḥmān bin 'Āish did not hear from the Prophet ﷺ.

٣٢٣٥ - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاذُ بْنُ هَانِئٍ أَبُو هَانِئٍ الْيَشْكُرِيُّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا جَهْضَمُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ سَلَّامٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَّامٍ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَائِشٍ الْحَضْرَمِيِّ أَنَّهُ حَدَّثَهُ عَنْ مَالِكِ بْنِ يَخَامِرَ السَّكْسَكِيِّ، عَنْ مُعَاذِ بْنِ جَبَلٍ قَالَ: «احْتَبَسَ عَنَّا رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ذَاتَ غَدَاةٍ مِنْ صَلَاةِ الصُّبْحِ حَتَّى كِدْنَا نَتَرَاءَى عَيْنَ الشَّمْسِ، فَخَرَجَ سَرِيعًا فَثُوِّبَ بِالصَّلَاةِ، فَصَلَّى رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَتَجَوَّزَ فِي صَلَاتِهِ، فَلَمَّا سَلَّمَ دَعَا بِصَوْتِهِ، فَقَالَ لَنَا: عَلَى مَصَافِّكُمْ كَمَا أَنْتُمْ». ثُمَّ انْفَتَلَ إِلَيْنَا، فَقَالَ: أَمَا إِنِّي سَأُحَدِّثُكُمْ مَا حَبَسَنِي عَنْكُمُ الْغَدَاةَ، إِنِّي قُمْتُ مِنَ اللَّيْلِ، فَتَوَضَّأْتُ فَصَلَّيْتُ مَا قُدِّرَ لِي، فَنَعَسْتُ فِي صَلَاتِي فَاسْتَثْقَلْتُ، فَإِذَا أَنَا بِرَبِّي تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى فِي أَحْسَنِ صُورَةٍ، فَقَالَ: يَا مُحَمَّدُ، قُلْتُ لَبَّيْكَ رَبِّ، قَالَ: فِيمَ يَخْتَصِمُ الْمَلَأُ الْأَعْلَى؟ قُلْتُ: لَا أَدْرِي رَبِّ، قَالَهَا ثَلَاثًا، قَالَ: فَرَأَيْتُهُ وَضَعَ كَفَّهُ بَيْنَ كَتِفَيَّ حَتَّى وَجَدْتُ بَرْدَ أَنَامِلِهِ بَيْنَ ثَدْيَيَّ، فَتَجَلَّى لِي كُلُّ شَيْءٍ وَعَرَفْتُ، فَقَالَ: يَا مُحَمَّدُ، قُلْتُ لَبَّيْكَ رَبِّ، قَالَ: فِيمَ يَخْتَصِمُ الْمَلَأُ الْأَعْلَى؟ قُلْتُ: فِي الْكَفَّارَاتِ، قَالَ: مَا هُنَّ؟ قُلْتُ: مَشْيُ الْأَقْدَامِ إِلَى الْجَمَاعَاتِ، وَالْجُلُوسُ فِي الْمَسَاجِدِ بَعْدَ الصَّلَوَاتِ، وَإِسْبَاغُ الْوُضُوءِ فِي الْمَكْرُوهَاتِ. قَالَ: ثُمَّ فِيمَ؟ قُلْتُ: إِطْعَامُ الطَّعَامِ، وَلِينُ الْكَلَامِ، وَالصَّلَاةُ بِاللَّيْلِ وَالنَّاسُ نِيَامٌ، قَالَ: سَلْ، قُلْتُ: اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ فِعْلَ الْخَيْرَاتِ، وَتَرْكَ الْمُنْكَرَاتِ، وَحُبَّ الْمَسَاكِينِ، وَأَنْ تَغْفِرَ لِي وَتَرْحَمَنِي، وَإِذَا أَرَدْتَ فِتْنَةً فِي قَوْمٍ فَتَوَفَّنِي غَيْرَ مَفْتُونٍ، وَأَسْأَلُكَ حُبَّكَ وَحُبَّ مَنْ يُحِبُّكَ، وَحُبَّ عَمَلٍ يُقَرِّبُ إِلَى حُبِّكَ. قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: إِنَّهَا حَقٌّ، فَادْرُسُوهَا ثُمَّ تَعَلَّمُوهَا.
هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ، سَأَلْتُ مُحَمَّدَ بْنَ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، عَنْ هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ، فَقَالَ: هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ، هَذَا أَصَحُّ مِنْ حَدِيثِ الْوَلِيدِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ بْنِ جَابِرٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدُ بْنُ اللَّجْلَاجِ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ عَائِشٍ الْحَضْرَمِيُّ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ وَهَذَا غَيْرُ مَحْفُوظٍ هَكَذَا ذَكَرَ الْوَلِيدُ فِي حَدِيثِهِ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَائِشٍ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ. وَرَوَى بِشْرُ بْنُ بَكْرٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ بْنِ جَابِرٍ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَائِشٍ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَهَذَا أَصَحُّ وَعَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ عَائِشٍ لَمْ يَسْمَعْ مِنَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ.
