حَدَّثَنَا حَسَنُ بْنُ مُوسَى حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ لَهِيعَةَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو قَبِيلٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ نَاشِرٍ مِنْ بَنِي سَرِيعٍ قَالَ
إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ خَرَجَ ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ إِلَيْهِمْ فَقَالَ لَهُمْ: إِنَّ رَبَّكُمْ [عَزَّ وَجَلَّ] خَيَّرَنِي بَيْنَ سَبْعِينَ أَلْفًا يَدْخُلُونَ الْجَنَّةَ عَفْوًا بِغَيْرِ حِسَابٍ، وَبَيْنَ الْخَبِيئَةِ عِنْدَهُ لِأُمَّتِي فَقَالَ لَهُ بَعْضُ أَصْحَابِهِ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، أَيَخْبَأُ ذَلِكَ رَبُّكَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ؟ فَدَخَلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ ثُمَّ خَرَجَ وَهُوَ يُكَبِّرُ فَقَالَ: إِنَّ رَبِّي [عَزَّ وَجَلَّ] زَادَنِي مَعَ كُلِّ أَلْفٍ سَبْعِينَ أَلْفًا، وَالْخَبِيئَةُ عِنْدَهُ. قَالَ أَبُو رُهْمٍ: يَا أَبَا أَيُّوبَ، وَمَا تَظُنُّ خَبِيئَةَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ ؟ فَأَكَلَهُ النَّاسُ بِأَفْوَاهِهِمْ فَقَالُوا: وَمَا أَنْتَ وَخَبِيئَةَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ ؟ فَقَالَ أَبُو أَيُّوبَ: دَعُوا الرَّجُلَ عَنْكُمْ، أُخْبِرْكُمْ عَنْ خَبِيئَةِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ كَمَا أَظُنُّ، بَلْ كَالْمُسْتَيْقِنِ، إِنَّ خَبِيئَةَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ أَنْ يَقُولَ: رَبِّ مَنْ شَهِدَ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ، وَأَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا عَبْدُهُ وَرَسُولُهُ مُصَدِّقًا لِسَانَهُ قَلْبُهُ، فَأَدْخِلْهُ الْجَنَّةَ.

✧ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ came out to them one day and said to them: 'Your Lord [Mighty and Majestic] gave me the choice between seventy thousand entering Paradise as a favor without reckoning, and the hidden treasure with Him for my nation.' Some of his companions said to him: 'O Messenger of Allah, does your Lord, Mighty and Majestic, hide that?' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ entered, then came out saying the takbir, and said: 'My Lord [Mighty and Majestic] has increased me, with every thousand, seventy thousand, and the hidden treasure is with Him.' Abu Ruhm said: 'O Abu Ayyub, what do you think the hidden treasure of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ is?' The people began to speak among themselves and said: 'What concern is it of yours with the hidden treasure of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ?' Abu Ayyub said: 'Leave the man alone, and I will tell you about the hidden treasure of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ as I think, or rather as one who is certain. The hidden treasure of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ is that he should say: "O Lord, whoever bears witness that there is no god but Allah alone, with no partner, and that Muhammad is His servant and Messenger, his tongue affirming it and his heart confirming it, admit him to Paradise."'
