أَخْبَرَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ سَعِيدِ بْنِ سِنَانٍ الطَّائِيُّ بِمَنْبَجَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ حَفْصٍ النُّفَيْلِيُّ قَالَ قَرَأْنَا عَلَى مَعْقِلِ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ أَنَّهَا أَخْبَرَتْهُ
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ خَرَجَ لَيْلَةً فِي رَمَضَانَ فَصَلَّى فِي الْمَسْجِدِ فَصَلَّى رِجَالٌ وَرَاءَهُ بِصَلَاتِهِ فَأَصْبَحَ النَّاسُ فَتَحَدَّثُوا بِذَلِكَ فَاجْتَمَعَ أَكْثَرَهُمْ مِنْهُمْ فَخَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ الثَّانِيَةَ فَصَلَّوْا بِصَلَاتِهِ فَأَصْبَحَ النَّاسُ فَتَحَدَّثُوا بِذَلِكَ فَاجْتَمَعَ أَهْلُ الْمَسْجِدِ لَيْلَةَ الثَّالِثَةِ فَخَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَصَلَّوْا بِصَلَاتِهِ فَلَمَّا كَانَتِ اللَّيْلَةُ الرَّابِعَةُ عَجَزَ الْمَسْجِدُ عَنْ أَهْلِهِ فَلَمْ يَخْرُجْ إِلَيْهِمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِلَّا لِصَلَاةِ الْفَجْرِ فَلَمَّا قُضِيَتْ صَلَاةُ الْفَجْرِ أَقْبَلَ عَلَى النَّاسِ فَتَشَهَّدَ ثُمَّ قَالَ «أَمَّا بَعْدُ فَإِنَّهُ لَمْ يَخْفَ عَلَيَّ مَكَانُكُمْ وَلَكِنِّي خَشِيتُ أَنْ تُفْرَضَ عَلَيْكُمْ فَتَقْعُدُوا عَنْهَا» وَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يُرَغِّبُهُمْ فِي قِيَامِ شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ مِنْ غَيْرِ أَنْ يَأْمُرَهُمْ بِقَضَاءِ أَمْرٍ فِيهِ يَقُولُ «مَنْ قَامَ رَمَضَانَ إِيمَانًا وَاحْتِسَابًا غُفِرَ لَهُ مَا تَقَدَّمَ مِنْ ذَنْبِهِ» فَخَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَالْأَمْرُ عَلَى ذَلِكَ ثُمَّ كَانَ الْأَمْرُ عَلَى ذَلِكَ فِي خِلَافَةِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ وَصَدْرًا مِنْ خِلَافَةِ عُمَرَ رِضْوُانُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِمْ أَجْمَعِينَ

✧ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ went out one night in Ramadan and prayed in the mosque, and some men prayed behind him following his prayer. In the morning the people talked about it, and a larger number of them gathered. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ went out the second night and they prayed following his prayer. In the morning the people talked about it, and the people of the mosque gathered on the third night. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ went out and they prayed following his prayer. When it was the fourth night, the mosque could not contain its people, but the Messenger of Allah ﷺ did not come out to them until the dawn prayer. When the dawn prayer was completed, he turned to the people, pronounced the testimony of faith, and said, "To proceed: your being here was not hidden from me, but I feared that it would be made obligatory upon you and you would fail to do it." And the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to encourage them to stand in prayer during the month of Ramadan without commanding them to perform it as a duty, saying, "Whoever stands in prayer during Ramadan out of faith and seeking reward, his previous sins will be forgiven." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ passed away while the matter was on that basis, then it remained so during the caliphate of Abu Bakr and the early part of the caliphate of Umar, ؓ.
