قَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ: وَرَوَى مَرْزُوقٌ، هُوَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ، عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ:
إِذَا كَانَ يَوْمُ عَرَفَةَ إِنَّ اللهَ يَنْزِلُ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ فَيُبَاهِي بِهِمُ الْمَلَائِكَةَ، فَيَقُولُ: انْظُرُوا إِلَى عِبَادِي أَتَوْنِي شُعْثًا غُبْرًا، ضَاحِينَ مِنْ كُلِّ فَجٍّ عَمِيقٍ، أُشْهِدُكُمْ أَنِّي قَدْ غَفَرْتُ لَهُمْ. فَتَقُولُ لَهُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ: أَيْ رَبِّ فِيهِمْ فُلَانٌ يَزْهُو وَفُلَانٌ وَفُلَانٌ، قَالَ: يَقُولُ اللهُ: " قَدْ غَفَرْتُ لَهُمْ " قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: " فَمَا مِنْ يَوْمٍ أَكْثَرُ عَتِيقًا مِنَ النَّارِ مِنْ يَوْمِ عَرَفَةَ

✧ When it is the Day of 'Arafah, Allah descends to the lowest heaven and boasts about them to the angels, saying: Look at My servants, they have come to Me disheveled and dusty, having come from every deep mountain pass. I call you to witness that I have forgiven them. The angels say: O Lord, among them is so-and-so who is conceited, and so-and-so and so-and-so. He said: Allah says: I have forgiven them. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: There is no day on which more people are freed from the Fire than the Day of 'Arafah.
