حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مَعْمَرٍ قَالَ: نَا أَبُو عَاصِمٍ، عَنِ الْأَوْزَاعِيِّ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي مَرْثَدٌ، أَوْ أَبُو مَرْثَدٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ:
لَقِيتُ أَبَا ذَرٍّ عِنْدَ الْجَمْرَةِ الْوُسْطَى فَسَأَلْتُهُ، عَنْ لَيْلَةِ الْقَدْرِ، فَقَالَ: مَا كَانَ أَحَدٌ بِأَسْأَلَ لَهَا مِنِّي، قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أُنْزِلَتْ عَلَى الْأَنْبِيَاءِ تُوحَى إِلَيْهِمْ فِيهَا ثُمَّ تُرْفَعُ ؟ قَالَ: " بَلْ هِيَ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ " قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَيَّتُهُنَّ هِيَ ؟ قَالَ: لَوْ أُذِنَ لِي لَأَنْبَأْتُكَ بِهَا، وَلَكِنِ الْتَمِسْهَا فِي التِّسْعِينَ أَوِ السُّبُعَيْنِ وَلَا تَسْأَلْنِي بَعْدَهَا ثُمَّ أَقْبَلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَجَعَلَ يُحَدِّثُ، فَقُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ: فِي أَيِّ السُّبُعَيْنِ هِيَ ؟ فَغَضِبَ عَلَيَّ غَضْبَةً لَمْ يَغْضَبْ عَلَيَّ قَبْلَهَا وَلَا بَعْدَهَا مِثْلَهَا، ثُمَّ قَالَ: " أَلَمْ أَنْهَكَ عَنْهَا ؟ لَوْ أُذِنَ لِي لَأَنْبَأْتُكُمْ أَوْ لَأَنْبَأْتُكَ بِهَا وَلَكِنْ، وَذَكَرَ كَلِمَةً أَنْ يَكُونَ فِي السَّبْعَةِ الْأَوَاخِرِ

✧ I met Abu Dharr at the middle jamrah and asked him about the Night of Decree (Laylat al-Qadr). He said: "No one was more eager to ask about it than I. I said: 'O Messenger of Allah, was it sent down upon the prophets to whom revelation came, then it was lifted?' He said: 'Rather, it is until the Day of Resurrection.' I said: 'O Messenger of Allah, which night is it?' He said: 'If I were permitted, I would inform you of it, but seek it in the nineties or the seventies, and do not ask me after this.' Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ turned away and began to talk. I said: 'O Messenger of Allah, in which of the seventies is it?' He became angry with me with an anger the like of which he had never been angry with me before or after. Then he said: 'Did I not forbid you from it? If I were permitted, I would inform you all, or inform you, of it, but'—and he mentioned a word—'that it is in the last seven.'"
