أَخْبَرَنَا ) أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ وَأَبُو نَصْرٍ: أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ الْفَامِيُّ، قَالَا: أَنْبَأَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ الشَّيْبَانِيُّ، ثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ شَاذَانَ الَبْنَدَكَرِيُّ، ثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ خَشْرَمٍ، ثَنَا أَبُو ضَمْرَةَ، عَنِ الضَّحَّاكِ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ، عَنْ أَبِي النَّضْرِ - مَوْلَى عُمَرَ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ عَنْ بُسْرِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ أُنَيْسٍ: أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ:
أُرِيتُ لَيْلَةَ الْقَدْرِ، ثُمَّ أُنْسِيتُهَا، وَأُرَانِي صَبِيحَتَهَا أَسْجُدُ فِي مَاءٍ وَطِينٍ "، قَالَ: فَمُطِرْنَا لَيْلَةَ ثَلَاثٍ وَعِشْرِينَ، فَصَلَّى بِنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ ثُمَّ انْصَرَفَ، وَإِنَّ أَثَرَ الْمَاءِ وَالطِّينِ لَعَلَى أَنْفِهِ وَجَبْهَتِهِ، قَالَ: وَكَانَ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ أُنَيْسٍ يَقُولُ: ثَلَاثٍ وَعِشْرِينَ

"I was shown Laylat al-Qadr, then I was made to forget it, and I saw myself on the morning after it prostrating in water and mud." He said: So it rained on the night of the twenty-third, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ prayed with us, then he turned away, and indeed the mark of water and mud was on his nose and forehead. He said: And ʿAbdullāh b. Unays used to say: the twenty-third.
