أَخْبَرَنَا الصُّوفِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْجَعْدِ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا زُهَيْرُ بْنُ مُعَاوِيَةَ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ عَنْ فَرْوَةَ بْنِ نَوْفَلٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ
«هَلْ لَكَ فِي رَبِيبَةٍ لَنَا فَتَكْفُلُهَا زَيْنَبُ؟ » قَالَ ثُمَّ جَاءَ فَسَأَلَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَقَالَ تَرَكْتُهَا عِنْدَ أُمِّهَا قَالَ «فَمَجِيءٌ مَا جَاءَ بِكَ؟ » قَالَ جِئْتُ لِتُعَمِّلَنِي شَيْئًا أَقُولُهُ عِنْدَ مَنَامِي قَالَ «اقْرَأْ قُلْ يَا أَيُّهَا الْكَافِرُونَ ثُمَّ نَمْ عَلَى خَاتِمَتِهَا فَإِنَّهَا بَرَاءَةٌ مِنَ الشِّرْكِ»

✧ “Would you like to take charge of a stepdaughter of ours, Zaynab?” He said: “Then he came and the Prophet ﷺ asked him. He said: “I left her with her mother.” He said: “So what brings you?” He said: “I came so that you could teach me something to say when I sleep.” He said: “Recite: ‘Say: O disbelievers,’ then sleep upon its conclusion, for it is a declaration of freedom from polytheism.”
