أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو يَعْلَى قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْأَعْلَى بْنُ حَمَّادٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُعْتَمِرُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ عَنْ دَاوُدَ بْنِ أَبِي هِنْدَ عَنْ أَبِي حَرْبِ بْنِ أَبِي الْأَسْوَدِ الدِّيلِيِّ عَنْ عَمِّهِ عَنْ أَبِي ذَرٍّ قَالَ
أَتَانِي نَبِيُّ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَأَنَا نَائِمٌ فِي مَسْجِدِ الْمَدِينَةِ فَضَرَبَنِي بِرِجْلِهِ وَقَالَ «أَلَا أَرَاكَ نَائِمًا فِيهِ»؟ قُلْتُ بَلَى يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ غَلَبَتْنِي عَيْنِي قَالَ «فَكَيْفَ تَصْنَعُ إِذَا أُخْرِجْتَ مِنْهُ»؟ قُلْتُ مَا أَصْنَعُ يَا نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ أَضْرِبُ بِسَيْفِي؟ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «أَلَا أَدُلُّكَ عَلَى مَا هُوَ خَيْرٌ لَكَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ وَأَقْرَبُ رُشْدًا؟ تَسْمَعُ وَتُطِيعُ وَتَنْسَاقُ لَهُمْ حَيْثُ سَاقُوكَ»

✧ The Prophet of God ﷺ came to me while I was sleeping in the mosque of Madinah. He struck me with his foot and said: 'Do I not see you sleeping in it?' I said: 'Yes, O Messenger of God, my eyes overcame me.' He said: 'Then what will you do when you are expelled from it?' I said: 'What should I do, O Prophet of God? Should I strike with my sword?' The Prophet ﷺ said: 'Shall I not guide you to what is better for you than that and closer to right guidance? You hear and obey, and you will be driven along with them wherever they drive you.'
