حَدَّثَنَا رَوْحٌ وَعَفَّانُ الْمَعْنَى قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ السَّائِبِ عَنْ أَبِي عُبَيْدَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ قَالَ عَفَّانُعَنْ أَبِيهِ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ قَالَ

إِنَّ اللهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ ابْتَعَثَ نَبِيَّهُ ﷺ لِإِدْخَالِ رَجُلٍ إِلَى الْجَنَّةِ، فَدَخَلَ الْكَنِيسَةَ فَإِذَا هُوَ بِيَهُودَ، وَإِذَا يَهُودِيٌّ يَقْرَأُ عَلَيْهِمُ التَّوْرَاةَ، فَلَمَّا أَتَوْا عَلَى صِفَةِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَمْسَكُوا، وَفِي نَاحِيَتِهَا رَجُلٌ مَرِيضٌ. فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ: مَا لَكُمْ أَمْسَكْتُمْ؟ قَالَ الْمَرِيضُ: إِنَّهُمْ أَتَوْا عَلَى صِفَةِ نَبِيٍّ فَأَمْسَكُوا، ثُمَّ جَاءَ الْمَرِيضُ يَحْبُو حَتَّى أَخَذَ التَّوْرَاةَ، فَقَرَأَ حَتَّى أَتَى عَلَى صِفَةِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ، وَأُمَّتِهِ فَقَالَ: هَذِهِ صِفَتُكَ وَصِفَةُ أُمَّتِكَ، أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ، وَأَنَّكَ رَسُولُ اللهِ، ثُمَّ مَاتَ. فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ لِأَصْحَابِهِ: لُوا أَخَاكُمْ.

✧ Allah, Mighty and Majestic, sent His Prophet ﷺ to bring a man into Paradise. He entered the church and found Jews, and a Jew was reciting the Torah to them. When they came to the description of the Prophet ﷺ, they stopped. In a corner of it was a sick man. The Prophet ﷺ said: 'What is the matter with you that you stopped?' The sick man said: 'They came to the description of a prophet and stopped.' Then the sick man came crawling until he took the Torah and read until he came to the description of the Prophet ﷺ and his nation. He said: 'This is your description and the description of your nation. I bear witness that there is no god but Allah and that you are the Messenger of Allah.' Then he died. The Prophet ﷺ said to his companions: 'Take care of your brother.'
