أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو يَعْلَى حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ الطَّالَقَانِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ عَنْ مُغِيرَةَ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَالَ
أَتَى عَلْقَمَةُ الشَّامَ فَدَخَلَ الْمَسْجِدَ فَصَلَّى فِيهِ ثُمَّ مَالَ إِلَى حَلْقَةٍ فَجَلَسَ فِيهَا قَالَ فَجَاءَ رَجُلٌ فَجَلَسَ إِلَى جَنْبِي فَقُلْتُ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ إِنِّي لَأَرْجُو أَنْ يَكُونَ اللَّهُ قَدِ اسْتَجَابَ دَعْوَتِي قَالَ وَذَلِكَ الرَّجُلُ أَبُو الدَّرْدَاءِ فَقَالَ «وَمَا ذَاكَ؟ » فَقَالَ عَلْقَمَةُ دَعَوْتُ اللَّهَ أَنْ يَرْزُقَنِيَ جَلِيسًا صَالِحًا فَأَرْجُو أَنْ تَكُونَ أَنْتَ فَقَالَ «مَنْ أَنْتَ؟ » قُلْتُ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْكُوفَةِ أَوْ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْعِرَاقِ ثُمَّ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْكُوفَةِ فَقَالَ أَبُو الدَّرْدَاءِ «أَلَمْ يَكُنْ فِيكُمْ صَاحِبُ السِّرِّ الَّذِي لَا يَعْلَمُهُ غَيْرُهُ أَحَدٌ يَعْنِي حُذَيْفَةَ » قَالَ ثُمَّ قَالَ «أَتَحْفَظُ كَمَا كَانَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ يَقْرَأُ؟ » قُلْتُ نَعَمْ قَالَ «{وَاللَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَى وَالنَّهَارِ إِذَا تَجَلَّى} قَالَ عَلْقَمَةُ فَقُلْتُ وَالذَّكَرِ وَالْأُنْثَى فَقَالَ أَبُو الدَّرْدَاءِ وَاللَّهِ الَّذِي لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا هُوَ هَكَذَا أَقْرَأَنِيهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ مِنْ فِيهِ إِلَى فِيَّ فَمَا زَالَ هَؤُلَاءِ حَتَّى كَادُوا يَرُدُّونَنِي عَنْهَا»

✧ Al-Qama from Sham came and entered the mosque and performed prayer in it. Then he approached a group and sat among them. A man came and sat next to me, so I said, "Praise be to Allah, I hope that Allah has answered my prayer." He said, "And who is that?" al-Qama said, "I prayed to Allah to grant me a righteous companion, and I hope it is you." Abu Al-Darda' said, "Who are you?" I said, "I am from the people of Kufa or from the people of Iraq, and then from the people of Kufa." Abu Al-Darda' said, "Didn't you have the one who possesses the secret that no one else knows, meaning Hudhayfah?" He said, "Then he said, “Do you preserve it as Abdullah used to recite?’ I said, ‘Yes.’ He said, ‘{By the night when it covers, and [by] the day when it appears}.’ Al-Qama said, "So I said, 'And the male and the female.' Abu Al-Darda' said, 'By Allah, whom there is no deity except Him, this is how the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to recite it, from (fihi) to (fiiya).' They continued on like this until they almost turned me away from it."
