أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو الْمُغِيرَةِ حَدَّثَنَا الْأَوْزَاعِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ عَنْ هِلَالِ بْنِ أَبِي مَيْمُونَةَ عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ عَنْ رِفَاعَةَ بْنِ عَرَابَةَ الْجُهَنِيِّ قَالَ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ
إِذَا مَضَى مِنَ اللَّيْلِ نِصْفُهُ أَوْ ثُلُثَاهُ هَبَطَ اللَّهُ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ الدُّنْيَا ثُمَّ يَقُولُ لَا أَسْأَلُ عَنْ عِبَادِي غَيْرِي مَنْ ذَا الَّذِي يَسْأَلُنِي فَأُعْطِيَهُ؟ مَنْ ذَا الَّذِي يَسْتَغْفِرُنِي فَأَغْفِرَ لَهُ؟ مَنْ ذَا الَّذِي يَدْعُونِي فَأَسْتَجِيبَ لَهُ؟ حَتَّى يَطْلُعَ الْفَجْرُ

✧ When half of the night has passed, or two-thirds of it, Allah descends to the lowest sky, then He says: I will not ask about My servants from anyone other than Me. Who is it that asks Me, that I may give him? Who is it that seeks My forgiveness, that I may forgive him? Who is it that calls upon Me, that I may answer him? Until the dawn rises.
