حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْيَمَانِ حَدَّثَنَا صَفْوَانُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو عَنْ شُرَيْحِ بْنِ عُبَيْدٍ الْحَضْرَمِيِّ يَرُدُّهُ إِلَى أَبِي ذَرٍّ أَنَّهُ قَالَ
لَمَّا كَانَ الْعَشْرُ الْأَوَاخِرُ اعْتَكَفَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ، فَلَمَّا صَلَّى النَّبِيُّ ﷺ صَلَاةَ الْعَصْرِ مِنْ يَوْمِ اثْنَيْنِ وَعِشْرِينَ، قَالَ: إِنَّا قَائِمُونَ اللَّيْلَةَ إِنْ شَاءَ اللهُ، فَمَنْ شَاءَ مِنْكُمْ أَنْ يَقُومَ فَلْيَقُمْ. وَهِيَ لَيْلَةُ ثَلَاثٍ وَعِشْرِينَ، فَصَلَّاهَا النَّبِيُّ ﷺ جَمَاعَةً بَعْدَ الْعَتَمَةِ، حَتَّى ذَهَبَ ثُلُثُ اللَّيْلِ ثُمَّ انْصَرَفَ، فَلَمَّا كَانَ لَيْلَةُ أَرْبَعٍ وَعِشْرِينَ لَمْ يُصَلِّ شَيْئًا وَلَمْ يَقُمْ، فَلَمَّا كَانَ لَيْلَةُ خَمْسٍ وَعِشْرِينَ قَامَ بَعْدَ صَلَاةِ الْعَصْرِ يَوْمَ أَرْبَعٍ وَعِشْرِينَ فَقَالَ: إِنَّا قَائِمُونَ اللَّيْلَةَ إِنْ شَاءَ اللهُ يَعْنِي لَيْلَةَ خَمْسٍ وَعِشْرِينَ فَمَنْ شَاءَ فَلْيَقُمْ. فَصَلَّى بِالنَّاسِ حَتَّى ذَهَبَ ثُلُثُ اللَّيْلِ، ثُمَّ انْصَرَفَ، فَلَمَّا كَانَ لَيْلَةُ سِتٍّ وَعِشْرِينَ لَمْ يَقُلْ شَيْئًا وَلَمْ يَقُمْ، فَلَمَّا كَانَ عِنْدَ صَلَاةِ الْعَصْرِ مِنْ يَوْمِ سِتٍّ وَعِشْرِينَ قَامَ فَقَالَ: إِنَّا قَائِمُونَ إِنْ شَاءَ اللهُ، يَعْنِي لَيْلَةَ سَبْعٍ وَعِشْرِينَ فَمَنْ شَاءَ أَنْ يَقُومَ فَلْيَقُمْ. قَالَ أَبُو ذَرٍّ: فَتَجَلَّدْنَا لِلْقِيَامِ، فَصَلَّى بِنَا النَّبِيُّ ﷺ حَتَّى ذَهَبَ ثُلُثَا اللَّيْلِ، ثُمَّ انْصَرَفَ إِلَى قُبَّتِهِ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ، فَقُلْتُ لَهُ: إِنْ كُنَّا لَقَدْ طَمِعْنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَنْ تَقُومَ بِنَا حَتَّى تُصْبِحَ. فَقَالَ: يَا أَبَا ذَرٍّ، إِنَّكَ إِذَا صَلَّيْتَ مَعَ إِمَامِكَ وَانْصَرَفْتَ إِذَا انْصَرَفَ، كُتِبَ لَكَ قُنُوتُ لَيْلَتِكَ

✧ When the last ten days came, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ observed i'tikaf in the mosque. When the Prophet ﷺ prayed the 'Asr prayer on Monday the twenty-second, he said: 'We will stand in prayer tonight, if Allah wills. Whoever of you wishes to stand, let him stand.' That was the night of the twenty-third. The Prophet ﷺ prayed it in congregation after the 'atamah (night prayer), until a third of the night had passed, then he departed. On the night of the twenty-fourth, he did not pray anything and did not stand. On the night of the twenty-fifth, he stood after the 'Asr prayer on the day of the twenty-fourth and said: 'We will stand in prayer tonight, if Allah wills'—meaning the night of the twenty-fifth—'so whoever wishes, let him stand.' He prayed with the people until a third of the night had passed, then departed. On the night of the twenty-sixth, he said nothing and did not stand. Then at the time of the 'Asr prayer on the day of the twenty-sixth, he stood and said: 'We will stand in prayer, if Allah wills'—meaning the night of the twenty-seventh—'so whoever wishes to stand, let him stand.' Abu Dharr said: So we steeled ourselves for the standing, and the Prophet ﷺ prayed with us until two-thirds of the night had passed, then departed to his tent in the mosque. I said to him: 'We had hoped, O Messenger of Allah, that you would pray with us until morning.' He said: 'O Abu Dharr, if you pray with your imam and depart when he departs, the qunut of your night is recorded for you.'
