وَقَالَ أَبُو يَعْلَى: حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ حُصَيْنٍ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا فَرْقَدٌ السَّبَخِيُّ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ، عَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ ؓ قَالَ:

بَيْنَمَا نَحْنُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ بِالْأَبْطُحِ إِذْ قَامَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مُسْتَبْشِرًا إِلَى الْمَقَابِرِ، فَجَلَسَ عِنْدَ قَبْرٍ مِنْهَا، ثُمَّ جَلَسَ إِلَيْنَا كَئِيبًا، فَقُلْنَا: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، لَقَدْ قُمْتَ مِنْ عِنْدِنَا قَبْلُ مُسْتَبْشِرًا، وَرَجَعْتَ وَأَنْتَ كَئِيبٌ ؟ قَالَ ﷺ: اسْتَأْذَنْتُ رَبِّي أَنْ أَزُورَ قَبْرَ أُمِّي فَأَذِنَ لِي، أَوْ قَالَ: فَرَخَّصَ لِي، فَذَهَبْتُ لِأَشْفَعَ لَهَا فَمُنِعْتُ

✧ While we were with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ at al-Abtah, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ stood up cheerfully and went toward the graveyard. He sat by one of the graves, then he sat with us looking sorrowful. We said: 'O Messenger of Allah, you left us a while ago cheerful, and you have returned sorrowful?' He ﷺ said: 'I asked my Lord for permission to visit my mother's grave, and He permitted me—or he said: He gave me a dispensation—so I went to intercede for her, but I was prevented.'
