قَرَأْتُ عَلَى أَبِي حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا زَائِدَةُ حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ الْهَجَرِيُّ عَنْ أَبِي الْأَحْوَصِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ
إِنَّ اللهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ يَفْتَحُ أَبْوَابَ السَّمَاءِ ثُلُثَ اللَّيْلِ الْبَاقِي، ثُمَّ يَهْبِطُ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ الدُّنْيَا، ثُمَّ يَبْسُطُ يَدَهُ ثُمَّ يَقُولُ: أَلَا عَبْدٌ يَسْأَلُنِي فَأُعْطِيَهُ حَتَّى يَسْطَعَ الْفَجْرُ.
