مَنْ صَلَّى مِنْكُمْ مِنَ اللَّيْلِ فَلْيَجْهَرْ بِقِرَاءَتِهِ؛ فَإِنَّ الْمَلَائِكَةَ تُصَلِّي بِصَلَاتِهِ، وَتَسْمَعُ لِقِرَاءَتِهِ، وَإِنَّ مُؤْمِنِي الْجِنِّ الَّذِينَ يَكُونُونَ فِي الْهَوَاءِ، وَجِيرَانَهُ مَعَهُ فِي مَسْكَنِهِ يُصَلُّونَ بِصَلَاتِهِ، وَيَسْتَمِعُونَ قِرَاءَتَهُ، وَإِنَّهُ لَيَطْرُدُ بِجِهْرِ قِرَاءَتِهِ عَنْ دَارِهِ، وَعَنِ الدُّورِ الَّتِي حَوْلَهُ فُسَّاقَ الْجِنِّ، وَمَرَدَةَ الشَّيَاطِينِ، وَإِنَّ الْبَيْتَ الَّذِي يُقْرَأُ فِيهِ الْقُرْآنُ عَلَيْهِ خَيْمَةٌ مِنْ نُورٍ يَقْتَدِي بِهَا أَهْلُ السَّمَاءِ كَمَا يَقْتَدُونَ بِالْكَوْكَبِ الدُّرِّيِّ فِي لُجَجِ الْبِحَارِ، وَفِي الْأَرْضِ الْقَفْرِ فَإِذَا مَاتَ صَاحِبُ الْقُرْآنِ رُفِعَتْ تِلْكَ الْخَيْمَةُ فَيَنْظُرُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ فَلَا يَرَوْنَ ذَلِكَ النُّورَ فَتَنْعَاهُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ مِنْ سَمَاءٍ إِلَى سَمَاءٍ فَتُصَلِّي الْمَلَائِكَةُ عَلَى رُوحِهِ فِي الْأَرْوَاحِ، ثُمَّ تَسْتَقْبِلُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ الْحَافِظَيْنِ اللَّذَيْنِ كَانَا مَعَهُ، ثُمَّ تَسْتَغْفِرُ لَهُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ إِلَى يَوْمِ يُبْعَثُ، وَمَا مِنْ رَجُلٍ تَعَلَّمَ كِتَابَ اللهِ، ثُمَّ صَلَّى سَاعَةً مِنَ اللَّيْلِ إِلَّا أَوْصَتْ بِهِ تِلْكَ اللَّيْلَةُ الْمَاضِيَةُ اللَّيْلَةَ الْمُسْتَقْبَلَةَ أَنْ تُنَبِّهَهُ لِسَاعَتِهِ، وَأَنْ تَكُونَ عَلَيْهِ خَفِيفَةً، وَإِذَا مَاتَ وَكَانَ أَهْلُهُ فِي جِهَازِهِ يَجِيءُ الْقُرْآنُ فِي صُورَةٍ حَسَنَةٍ جَمِيلَةٍ وَاقِفًا عِنْدَ رَأْسِهِ حَتَّى يُدْرَجَ فِي أَكْفَانِهِ فَيَكُونَ الْقُرْآنُ عَلَى صَدْرِهِ دُونَ الْكَفَنِ، فَإِذَا وُضِعَ فِي قَبْرِهِ، وَسُوِّيَ عَلَيْهِ، وَتَفَرَّقَ عَنْهُ أَصْحَابُهُ أَتَاهُ مُنْكَرٌ، وَنَكِيرٌ فَيُجْلِسَانِهِ فِي قَبْرِهِ يَجِيءُ الْقُرْآنُ حَتَّى يَكُونَ بَيْنَهُ وَبَيْنَهُمَا فَيَقُولَانِ لَهُ: إِلَيْكَ حَتَّى نَسْأَلَهُ، فَيَقُولُ: لَا وَرَبِّ الْكَعْبَةِ إِنَّهُ لَصَاحِبِي، وَخَلِيلِي وَلَسْتُ أَخْذُلُهُ عَلَى حَالٍ فَإِنْ كُنْتُمَا أُمِرْتُمَا بِشَيْءٍ فَامْضِيَا لِمَا أُمِرْتُمَا، وَدَعَانِي مَكَانِي فَإِنِّي لَسْتُ أُفَارِقُهُ حَتَّى أُدْخِلَهُ الْجَنَّةَ إِنْ شَاءَ اللهُ، ثُمَّ يَنْظُرُ الْقُرْآنُ إِلَى صَاحِبِهِ، فَيَقُولُ لَهُ: اسْكُنْ فَإِنَّكَ سَتَجِدُنِي مِنَ الْجِيرَانِ جَارَ صَدْقٍ وَمِنَ الْأَخِلَّاءِ خَلِيلَ صَدْقٍ، وَمِنَ الْأَصْحَابِ صَاحِبَ صَدْقٍ، فَيَقُولُ لَهُ: مَنْ أَنْتَ ؟ فَيَقُولُ: أَنَا الْقُرْآنُ الَّذِي كُنْتَ تَجْهَرُ بِي، وَتُخْفِينِي، وَكُنْتَ تُحِبُّنِي فَأَنَا حَبِيبُكَ فَمَنْ أَحْبَبْتُهُ أَحَبَّهُ اللهُ لَيْسَ عَلَيْكَ بَعْدَ مَسْأَلَةِ مُنْكَرٍ وَنَكِيرٍ مِنْ غَمٍّ، وَلَا هَمٍّ، وَلَا حَزَنٍ، فَيَسْأَلَهُ مُنْكَرٌ، وَنَكِيرٌ، وَيَصْعَدَانِ، وَيَبْقَى هُوَ وَالْقُرْآنُ، فَيَقُولُ: لَأُفْرِشَنَّكَ فِرَاشًا لَيِّنًا، وَلَأُدَثِّرَنَّكَ دِثَارًا حَسَنًا جَمِيلًا جَزَاءً لَكَ بِمَا أَسْهَرْتَ لَيْلَكَ، وَأَنْصَبْتَ نَهَارَكَ، قَالَ، فَيَصْعَدُ الْقُرْآنُ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ أَسْرَعَ مِنَ الطَّرْفِ فَيَسْأَلُ اللهَ ذَلِكَ لَهُ فَيُعْطِيهِ اللهُ ذَلِكَ، فَيَنْزِلُ بِهِ أَلْفُ أَلْفٍ مِنْ مُقَرَّبِي السَّمَاءِ السَّادِسَةِ فَيَجِيئُهُ الْقُرْآنُ، وَيَقُولُ: هَلِ اسْتَوْحَشْتَ ؟ مَا زِلْتُ مُذْ فَارَقْتُكَ أَنْ كَلَّمْتُ اللهَ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى حَتَّى أَخْرَجْتُ لَكَ مِنْهُ فِرَاشًا، وَدِثَارًا، وَمِصْبَاحًا وَقَدْ جِئْتُكَ بِهِ فَقُمْ حَتَّى تُفْرِشَكَ الْمَلَائِكَةُ، قَالَ: فَتُنْهِضُهُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ إِنْهَاضًا لَطِيفًا، ثُمَّ يُفْسَحُ لَهُ فِي قَبْرِهِ مَسِيرَةَ أَرْبَعِمِائَةِ عَامٍ ثُمَّ يُوضَعُ لَهُ فِرَاشٌ بِطَانَتُهُ مِنْ حَرِيرٍ أَخْضَرَ حَشْوُهُ الْمِسْكُ الْأَذْخَرُ، وَيُوضَعُ لَهُ مُرَافَقٌ عِنْدَ رِجْلَيْهِ وَرَأْسِهِ مِنَ السُّنْدُسِ، وَالْإِسْتَبْرَقِ، وُيُسْرَجُ لَهُ سِرَاجَانِ مِنْ نُورِ الْجَنَّةِ عِنْدَ رَأْسِهِ وَرِجْلَيْهِ يُزْهِرَانِ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ، ثُمَّ تُضْجِعُهُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ عَلَى شِقِّهِ الْأَيْمَنِ مُسْتَقْبِلَ الْقِبْلَةِ، ثُمَّ يُوتَى بِيَاسَمِينَ مِنْ يَاسَمِينِ الْجَنَّةِ، وَيُصْعَدُ عَنْهُ، وَيَبْقَى هُوَ وَالْقُرْآنُ فَيَأْخُذُ الْقُرْآنُ الْيَاسَمِينَ فَيَضَعُهُ عَلَى أَنْفِهِ غَضًّا فَيَسْتَنْشِقُهُ حَتَّى يُبْعَثَ، وَيَرْجِعُ الْقُرْآنُ إِلَى أَهْلِهِ فَيُخْبِرُهُ بِخَبَرِهِمْ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ وَلَيْلَةٍ، وَيَتَعَاهَدُهُ كَمَا يَتَعَاهَدُ الْوَالِدُ الشَّفِيقُ وَلَدَهُ بِالْخَبَرِ فَإِنْ تَعَلَّمَ أَحَدٌ مِنْ وَلَدِهِ الْقُرْآنَ بَشَّرَهُ بِذَلِكَ، وَإِنْ كَانَ عَقِبُهُ عَقِبَ السُّوءِ دَعَا لَهُمْ بِالصَّلَاحِ وَالْإِقْبَالِ أَوْ كَمَا ذُكِرَ. وَهَذَا الْحَدِيثُ لَا نَعْلَمُهُ يُرْوَى عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ بِهَذَا اللَّفْظِ إِلَّا مِنْ هَذَا الْوَجْهِ وَلَمْ يَسْمَعْ خَالِدُ بْنُ مَعْدَانَ مِنْ مُعَاذٍ وَإِنَّمَا ذَكَرْنَاهُ لَأَنَّا لَمْ نَحْفَظْهُ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ، إِلَّا مِنْ هَذَا الْوَجْهِ فَلِذَلِكَ ذَكَرْنَاهُ، وَإِنَّمَا يَجِيءُ ثَوَابُ الْقُرْآنِ، وَالدَّلِيلُ عَلَى ذَلِكَ أَنَّهُ يُرْوَى عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ: أَنَّ اللُّقْمَةَ أَوِ الْكِسْرَةَ تَجِيءُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ مِثْلَ أُحُدٍ وَإِنَّمَا يَجِيءُ ثَوَابُهَا، فَكُلُّ شَيْءٍ مِنْ ذَلِكَ يُرْوَى عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ مِمَّا يَكُونُ فِي الْآخِرَةِ فَإِنَّمَا هُوَ الثَّوَابُ.
✧ Whoever among you prays at night should recite aloud, for the angels pray with his prayer and listen to his recitation. The believing jinn who are in the air, and his neighbors in his dwelling, pray with his prayer and listen to his recitation. And by his loud recitation he drives away from his house and from the houses around him the wicked jinn and the rebellious devils. The house in which the Quran is recited has over it a tent of light by which the people of heaven are guided, just as they are guided by a brilliant star in the depths of the seas and in the desolate land. When the companion of the Quran dies, that tent is lifted, and the angels look from heaven and no longer see that light, so the angels announce his death from heaven to heaven, and the angels pray over his soul among the souls. Then the angels meet the two guardian angels who were with him, and they seek forgiveness for him until the day he is resurrected. There is no man who learns the Book of Allah and then prays for a portion of the night but that the past night entrusts the coming night to wake him at that hour and to be light upon him. When he dies and his family is preparing his body, the Quran comes in a beautiful and comely form, standing at his head until he is wrapped in his shrouds, and the Quran is upon his chest rather than the shroud. When he is placed in his grave and the earth is leveled over him and his companions depart, Munkar and Nakir come to him and sit him up in his grave. The Quran comes until it is between him and them. They say to it: 'Move aside so we may question him.' It says: 'No, by the Lord of the Kaaba, he is my companion and my close friend, and I will not abandon him in any state. If you two have been commanded something, then proceed with what you were commanded and leave me in my place, for I will not part from him until I enter him into Paradise, if Allah wills.' Then the Quran looks at its companion and says to him: 'Rest, for you will find me a true neighbor among neighbors, a true friend among friends, and a true companion among companions.' He says to it: 'Who are you?' It says: 'I am the Quran which you used to recite aloud and in secret, and you loved me. I am your beloved, and whoever loves me, Allah loves him. After the questioning of Munkar and Nakir, there is no distress, worry, or grief upon you.' Munkar and Nakir ask him and then ascend, and he and the Quran remain. It says: 'I will spread for you a soft bed and cover you with a fine and beautiful covering as a reward for your staying awake at night and toiling by day.' Then the Quran ascends to heaven faster than the blink of an eye and asks Allah for that for him, and Allah grants it to him. Then a million of the angels brought near of the sixth heaven descend with it, and the Quran comes and says: 'Have you felt lonely? Since I parted from you, I have not ceased speaking to Allah, Blessed and Exalted, until I obtained for you a bed, a covering, and a lamp. I have brought them to you, so rise so the angels may spread them for you.' The angels raise him gently, and his grave is widened for him a distance of four hundred years. Then a bed is placed for him whose lining is green silk and whose filling is musk and sweet rush. Cushions of fine silk and brocade are placed at his feet and head, and two lamps from the light of Paradise are lit at his head and feet, shining until the Day of Resurrection. Then the angels lay him on his right side facing the qiblah. Then jasmine from the jasmine of Paradise is brought, and they ascend from him, leaving him and the Quran. The Quran takes the jasmine and places it fresh over his nose, and he inhales it until he is resurrected. The Quran returns to his family and informs him of their news every day and night, caring for him as a compassionate parent cares for his child. If one of his children learns the Quran, it gives him the good news of that. If his descendants are wicked, it supplicates for them for righteousness and acceptance, or as it was mentioned. We do not know this hadith being narrated from the Prophet ﷺ with this wording except from this route. Khalid b. Ma'dan did not hear from Mu'adh, and we mentioned it only because we did not preserve it from the Prophet ﷺ except from this route, and so we mentioned it. The reward of the Quran is what comes, and the evidence for that is that it is narrated from the Prophet ﷺ that the morsel or the piece of bread will come on the Day of Resurrection like Mount Uhud, and only its reward comes. Thus everything of that which is narrated from the Prophet ﷺ about what will happen in the Hereafter is only the reward.

يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، خَبِّرْنِي بِعَمَلٍ يُدْخِلُنِي الْجَنَّةَ لَا أَسْأَلُكَ عَنْ شَيْءٍ غَيْرِهِ، قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: بَخٍ بَخٍ، لَقَدْ سَأَلْتَ بِعَظِيمٍ، وَإِنَّهُ لَيَسِيرٌ عَلَى مَنْ أَرَادَ اللهُ بِهِ الْخَيْرَ قَالَ: تُؤْمِنُ بِاللهِ وَالْيَوْمِ الْآخِرِ، وَتُقِيمُ الصَّلَاةَ وَتَعْبُدَ اللهَ وَحْدَهُ لَا تُشْرِكُ بِهِ شَيْئًا حَتَّى تَمُوتَ وَأَنْتَ عَلَى ذَلِكَ قَالَ: يَا نَبِيَّ اللهِ أَعِدْهَا فَأَعَادَهَا ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ، ثُمَّ قَالَ نَبِيُّ اللهِ: ﷺ: إِنْ شِئْتَ حَدَّثْتُكَ يَا مُعَاذُ بِقِوَامِ هَذَا الْأَمْرِ وَذُرْوَةِ السَّنَامِ مِنْهُ فَقَالَ مُعَاذٌ: بَلَى، يَا نَبِيَّ اللهِ، بِأَبِي وَأُمِّي، فَقَالَ نَبِيُّ اللهِ: ﷺ: إِنَّ رَأْسَ هَذَا الْأَمْرِ شَهَادَةُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ، وَأَنِّي عَبْدُهُ وَرَسُولُهُ، وَإِقَامُ الصَّلَاةِ، وَإِيتَاءُ الزَّكَاةِ، وَإِنَّ ذُرْوَةَ السَّنَامِ مِنْهُ الْجِهَادُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ، وَإِنَّمَا أُمِرْتُ أَنْ أُقَاتِلَ النَّاسَ حَتَّى يُقِيمُوا الصَّلَاةَ، وَيُؤْتُوا الزَّكَاةَ، وَيَشْهَدُوا أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ، وَأَنِّي عَبْدُهُ وَرَسُولُهُ فَإِذَا فَعَلُوا فَقَدِ اعْتَصَمُوا، قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: مَا أُغْبِرَتْ قَدَمٌ فِي عَمَلٍ ابْتُغِيَ فِيهِ دَرَجَاتُ الْجَنَّةِ بَعْدَ الصَّلَاةِ الْمَفْرُوضَةِ كَجِهَادٍ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ، وَلَا ثَقُلَ مِيزَانُ عَبْدٍ كَدَابَّةٍ تَنْفُقُ لَهُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ أَوْ عَمِلَ عَلَيْهَا فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ.
✧ O Messenger of Allah, tell me of a deed that will admit me to Paradise; I will not ask you about anything other than it. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Bravo, bravo! You have asked about a great matter, and indeed it is easy for the one for whom Allah wills good. He said: You believe in Allah and the Last Day, establish the prayer, and worship Allah alone, not associating anything with Him, until you die while upon that. He said: O Prophet of Allah, repeat it, and he repeated it three times. Then the Prophet of Allah ﷺ said: If you wish, I will tell you, O Mu'adh, of the foundation of this matter and its highest peak. Mu'adh said: Yes, O Prophet of Allah, may my father and mother be your ransom. The Prophet of Allah ﷺ said: Indeed the head of this matter is the testimony that there is no god but Allah alone with no partner, and that I am His servant and Messenger, the establishment of the prayer, and the giving of zakah; and the highest peak of it is jihad in the path of Allah. I have only been commanded to fight the people until they establish the prayer, give zakah, and testify that there is no god but Allah and that I am His servant and Messenger. When they do that, they have sought protection. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: No foot is covered with dust in a deed by which the degrees of Paradise are sought, after the prescribed prayer, like jihad in the path of Allah, nor is the scale of a servant made heavier than by a mount that dies for him in the path of Allah or that he rides in the path of Allah.

أَنَّهُ: قَدِمَ مَعَ مُعَاذٍ مِنَ الْيَمَنِ فَمَكَثَ مَعَهُ فِي دَارِهِ، وَفِي مَنْزِلِهِ فَأَصَابَهُمُ الطَّاعُونُ فَطُعِنَ مُعَاذٌ، وَأَبُو عُبَيْدَةَ بْنُ الْجَرَّاحِ، وَشُرَحْبِيلُ بْنُ حَسَنَةَ، وَأَبُو مَالِكٍ جَمِيعًا فِي يَوْمٍ وَاحِدٍ، وَكَانَ عَمْرُو بْنُ الْعَاصِي حِينَ حَسَّ بِالطَّاعُونِ فَرَّ وَفَرِقَ فَرَقًا شَدِيدًا، وَقَالَ: يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ، تَفَرَّقُوا فِي هَذِهِ الشِّعَابِ فَقَدْ نَزَلَ بِكُمْ أَمْرٌ مِنْ أَمْرِ اللهِ لَا أَرَاهُ إِلَّا رِجْزًا وَطَاعُونًا، فَقَالَ لَهُ شُرَحْبِيلُ بْنُ حَسَنَةَ: كَذَبْتَ قَدْ صَحِبْنَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ وَأَنْتَ أَضَلُّ مِنْ حِمَارِ أَهْلِكِ، فَقَالَ عَمْرٌو: صَدَقْتَ، فَقَالَ مُعَاذُ بْنُ جَبَلٍ، لِعَمْرِو بْنِ الْعَاصِي: كَذَبْتَ لَيْسَ بِالطَّاعُونِ، وَلَا الرِّجْزِ، وَلَكِنَّهَا رَحْمَةُ رَبِّكُمْ وَدَعْوَةُ نَبِيِّكُمْ، وَقَبْضُ الصَّالِحِينَ، اللَّهُمَّ فَأْتِ آلَ مُعَاذٍ النَّصِيبَ الْأَوْفَرَ مِنْ هَذِهِ الرَّحْمَةِ، قَالَ: فَمَا أَمْسَى حَتَّى طُعِنَ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ ابْنُهُ، وَأَحَبُّ الْخَلْقِ إِلَيْهِ الَّذِي كَانَ يُكَنَّى بِهِ فَرَجَعَ مُعَاذٌ مِنَ الْمَسْجِدِ فَوَجَدَهُ مَكْرُوبًا فَقَالَ: يَا عَبْدَ الرَّحْمَنِ، كَيْفَ أَنْتَ ؟ فَاسْتَجَابَ لَهُ، فَقَالَ: يَا أَبَةِ، الْحَقُّ مِنْ رَبِّكَ فَلا تَكُنْ مِنَ الْمُمْتَرِينَ ( فَقَالَ مُعَاذٌ: وَإِنَّا ) إِنْ شَاءَ اللهُ سَتَجِدُنِي مِنَ الصَّابِرِينَ، فَمَاتَ مِنْ لَيْلَتِهِ، وَدَفَنَهُ مِنَ الْغَدِ فَجَعَلَ مُعَاذُ بْنُ جَبَلٍ يُرْسِلُ الْحَارِثَ بْنَ عَمِيرَةَ إِلَى أَبِي عُبَيْدَةَ بْنِ الْجَرَّاحِ يَسْأَلُهُ كَيْفَ هُوَ ؟ فَأَرَاهُ أَبُو عُبَيْدَةَ طَعْنَهُ بِكَفِّهِ؛ فَبَكَى الْحَارِثُ بْنُ عَمِيرَةَ وَفَرِقَ مِنْهَا حِينَ رَآهَا؛ فَأَقْسَمَ أَبُو عُبَيْدَةَ بِاللهِ مَا يُحِبُّ أَنَّ لَهُ مَكَانَهَا حُمْرَ النَّعَمِ قَالَ: فَرَجَعَ الْحَارِثُ إِلَى مُعَاذٍ فَوَجَدَهُ مَغْشِيًّا عَلَيْهِ فَبَكَى الْحَارِثُ، وَاسْتَبْكَى، ثُمَّ إِنَّ مُعَاذًا أَفَاقَ فَقَالَ: يَا ابْنَ الْحُمَيْرِيَّةِ لِمَ تَبْكِ عَلَيَّ ؟ أَعُوذُ بِاللهِ مِنْكَ، فَقَالَ الْحَارِثُ: وَاللهِ مَا عَلَيْكَ أَبْكِي، فَقَالَ مُعَاذٌ: فَعَلَامَ تَبْكِي ؟ قَالَ: أَبْكِي عَلَى مَا فَاتَنِي مِنْكَ الْعَصْرَيْنِ الْغُدُوِّ، وَالرَّوَاحِ، قَالَ مُعَاذٌ: أَجْلِسْنِي فَأَجْلَسَهُ فِي حِجْرِهِ، فَقَالَ: اسْمَعْ مِنِّي فَإِنِّي أُوصِيكَ بِوَصِيَّةٍ إِنَّ الَّذِي تَبْكِي عَلَيَّ مِنْ غُدُوِّكَ وَرَوَاحِكَ فَإِنَّ الْعِلْمَ مَكَانَهُ بَيْنَ لَوْحَيِ الْمُصْحَفِ فَإِنْ أَعْيَا عَلَيْكَ تَفْسِيرُهُ فَاطْلُبْهُ بَعْدِي عَنْدَ ثَلَاثَةٍ: عُوَيْمِرٍ أَبُو الدَّرْدَاءِ أَوْ عِنْدَ سَلْمَانَ الْفَارِسِيِّ أَوْ عِنْدَ ابْنِ أُمِّ عَبْدٍ وَأُحَذِّرُكُ زَلَّةَ الْعَالِمِ، وَجِدَالَ الْمُنَافِقِ، ثُمَّ إِنَّ مُعَاذًا اشْتَدَّ بِهِ النَّزْعُ نَزْعُ الْمَوْتِ فَنَزَعَ نَزْعًا لَمْ يَنْزِعْهُ أَحَدٌ فَكَانَ كُلَّمَا أَفَاقَ مِنْ غَمْرَةٍ فَتَحَ طَرْفَهُ فَقَالَ: اخْنُقْنِي خَنْقَكَ فَوَعِزَّتِكَ إِنَّكَ لَتَعْلَمُ أَنِّي أُحِبُّكُ، قَالَ: فَلَمَّا قَضَى نَحْبَهُ انْطَلَقَ الْحَارِثُ حَتَّى أَتَى أَبَا الدَّرْدَاءِ بِحِمْصَ فَمَكَثَ عِنْدَهُ مَا شَاءَ اللهُ أَنْ يَمْكُثَ، ثُمَّ قَالَ الْحَارِثُ: إِنَّ أَخِي مُعَاذًا أَوْصَانِي بِكَ وَبِسَلْمَانَ الْفَارِسِيِّ، وَبِابْنِ أُمِّ عَبْدٍ، وَلَا أَرَانِي إِلَّا مُنْطَلِقًا إِلَى الْعِرَاقِ فَقَدِمَ الْكُوفَةَ فَجَعَلَ يَحْضُرُ مَجْلِسَ ابْنِ أُمِّ عَبْدٍ بُكْرَةً، وَعَشِيَّةً فَبَيْنَمَا هُوَ كَذَلِكَ فِي الْمَجْلِسِ ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ قَالَ ابْنُ أُمِّ عَبْدٍ: فَمَنْ أَنْتَ ؟ قُلْتُ: امْرُؤٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الشَّامِ، قَالَ ابْنُ أُمِّ عَبْدٍ: نِعْمَ الْحَيُّ أَهْلُ الشَّامِ لَوْلَا وَاحِدَةٌ، قَالَ الْحَارِثُ: وَمَا تِلْكَ الْوَاحِدَةُ ؟ قَالَ: لَوْلَا أَنَّهُمْ يَشْهَدُونَ عَلَى أَنْفُسِهِمْ أَنَّهُمْ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ قَالَ: فَاسْتَرْجَعَ الْحَارِثُ مَرَّتَيْنِ أَوْ ثَلَاثًا وَقَالَ: صَدَقَ مُعَاذٌ عِنْدَمَا قَالَ لِي، فَقَالَ ابْنُ أُمِّ عَبْدٍ: وَمَا قَالَ يَا ابْنَ أَخِي ؟ قَالَ: حَذَّرَنِي زَلَّةَ الْعَالِمِ، وَاللهِ مَا أَنْتَ يَا ابْنَ مَسْعُودٍ إِلَّا أَحَدَ رَجُلَيْنِ إِمَّا رَجُلٌ أَصْبَحَ عَلَى يَقِينٍ، وَيَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ فَأَنْتَ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ أَوْ رَجُلٌ مُرْتَابٌ لَا تَدْرِي أَيْنَ مَنْزِلَتُكَ، قَالَ ابْنُ مَسْعُودٍ: صَدَقَ أَخِي إِنَّهَا زَلَّةٌ فَلَا تُؤَاخِذْنِي بِهَا، فَأَخَذَ ابْنُ مَسْعُودٍ بِيَدِ الْحَارِثِ فَانْطَلَقَ بِهِ إِلَى رَحْلِهِ فَمَكَثَ عِنْدَهُ مَا شَاءَ اللهُ، ثُمَّ قَالَ الْحَارِثُ: لَا بُدَّ لِي أَنْ أُطَالِعَ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللهِ سَلْمَانَ الْفَارِسِيَّ بِالْمَدَائِنِ، فَانْطَلَقَ الْحَارِثُ حَتَّى قَدِمَ عَلَى سَلْمَانَ بِالْمَدَائِنِ فَلَمَّا سَلَّمَ عَلَيْهِ قَالَ: مَكَانَكَ حَتَّى أَخْرُجَ إِلَيْكَ، قَالَ الْحَارِثُ: وَاللهِ مَا أَرَاكَ تَعْرِفُنِي يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ اللهِ، قَالَ: بَلَى، عَرَفَتْ رُوحِي رُوحَكَ قَبْلَ أَنْ أَعْرِفَكَ إِنَّ الْأَرْوَاحَ عِنْدَ اللهِ جُنُودٌ مُجَنَّدَةٌ فَمَا تَعَارَفَ مِنْهَا ائْتَلَفَ وَمَا تَنَاكَرَ مِنْهَا فِي غَيْرِ اللهِ اخْتَلَفَ، فَمَكَثَ عِنْدَهُ مَا شَاءَ اللهُ أَنْ يَمْكُثَ، ثُمَّ رَجَعَ إِلَى الشَّامِ فَأُولَئِكَ الَّذِينَ كَانُوا يَتَعَارَفُونَ فِي اللهِ وَيَتَزَاوَرُونَ فِي اللهَ
✧ He arrived with Mu'adh from Yemen and stayed with him in his house and his dwelling. Then the plague struck them, and Mu'adh, Abu 'Ubaydah b. al-Jarrah, Shurahbil b. Hasanah, and Abu Malik were all afflicted on a single day. 'Amr b. al-'As, when he sensed the plague, fled and was terrified with a great terror and said: O people, disperse into these mountain passes, for a matter from Allah has descended upon you; I see it as nothing but punishment and plague. Shurahbil b. Hasanah said to him: You lie; we accompanied the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and you are more astray than the donkey of your household. 'Amr said: You speak the truth. Mu'adh b. Jabal said to 'Amr b. al-'As: You lie; it is not the plague, nor punishment, but it is the mercy of your Lord, the call of your Prophet, and the taking of the righteous. O Allah, give the family of Mu'adh the fullest share of this mercy. He said: By evening, his son 'Abd al-Rahman was afflicted—the most beloved of creation to him, after whom he had his kunya. Mu'adh returned from the mosque and found him distressed, and said: O 'Abd al-Rahman, how are you? He replied: O my father, the truth from your Lord, so do not be among the doubters. Mu'adh said: And we, if Allah wills, you will find me among the patient. He died that night, and he buried him the next day. Mu'adh b. Jabal sent al-Harith b. 'Umayrah to Abu 'Ubaydah b. al-Jarrah to ask how he was. Abu 'Ubaydah showed him his affliction in his hand, and al-Harith b. 'Umayrah wept and was frightened when he saw it. Abu 'Ubaydah swore by Allah that he would not love to have in its place red camels. He said: Al-Harith returned to Mu'adh and found him unconscious, so al-Harith wept and sought to make others weep. Then Mu'adh regained consciousness and said: O son of the Humayri woman, why do you weep over me? I seek refuge in Allah from you. Al-Harith said: By Allah, I do not weep over you. Mu'adh said: Then over what do you weep? He said: I weep over what I have missed from you—the two times of day, morning and evening. Mu'adh said: Sit me up. He sat him up in his lap and said: Listen to me, for I enjoin upon you a bequest. As for what you weep over—your coming in the morning and evening—knowledge is in its place between the two covers of the mushaf. If its interpretation is difficult for you, then seek it after me from three: 'Uwaymir Abu al-Darda', or Salman al-Farisi, or Ibn Umm 'Abd. And I warn you against the slip of the scholar and the argument of the hypocrite. Then death's agony intensified for Mu'adh; he struggled as no one had struggled. Whenever he recovered from a swoon, he opened his eyes and said: Choke me with Your choking, for by Your might, You know that I love You. He said: When he passed away, al-Harith set out until he came to Abu al-Darda' in Hims and stayed with him as long as Allah willed. Then al-Harith said: My brother Mu'adh enjoined me to you, Salman al-Farisi, and Ibn Umm 'Abd. I see myself as nothing but departing to Iraq. He came to Kufa and attended the gathering of Ibn Umm 'Abd morning and evening. While he was thus in the gathering one day, Ibn Umm 'Abd said: Who are you? I said: A man from the people of Syria. Ibn Umm 'Abd said: What an excellent tribe are the people of Syria, were it not for one thing. Al-Harith said: What is that one thing? He said: Were it not that they testify against themselves that they are among the people of Paradise. He said: Al-Harith said 'Indeed we belong to Allah' twice or three times and said: Mu'adh spoke the truth in what he told me. Ibn Umm 'Abd said: And what did he say, O son of my brother? He said: He warned me against the slip of the scholar. By Allah, O Ibn Mas'ud, you are but one of two men: either a man who has entered upon certainty and testifies that there is no god but Allah, so you are among the people of Paradise, or a man in doubt who does not know where your station is. Ibn Mas'ud said: My brother spoke the truth; it is a slip, so do not hold me to account for it. Ibn Mas'ud took al-Harith by the hand and went with him to his dwelling, and he stayed with him as long as Allah willed. Then al-Harith said: I must visit Abu 'Abd Allah Salman al-Farisi in al-Mada'in. Al-Harith set out until he came to Salman in al-Mada'in. When he greeted him, Salman said: Stay where you are until I come out to you. Al-Harith said: By Allah, I do not think you know me, O Abu 'Abd Allah. He said: Yes, my soul knew your soul before I knew you. Indeed souls are troops mustered by Allah; those that knew one another came together, and those that did not know one another separated over other than Allah. He stayed with him as long as Allah willed. Then he returned to Syria. Those are the ones who knew one another for the sake of Allah and visited one another for the sake of Allah.
