وَقَالَ ابْنُ أَبِي عُمَرَ: حَدَّثَنَا الْمُقْرِئُ، حَدَّثَنَا الْمَسْعُودِيُّ، عَنِ الْقَاسِمِ، عَنْ حُذَيْفَةَ ؓ، قَالَ:

لَمَّا كَانَتْ لَيْلَةُ الْأَحْزَابِ أَصَابَ النَّاسَ جَهْدٌ شَدِيدٌ، وَأَصَابَهُمْ مِنَ الْبَرْدِ مَا لَمْ يُصِبْهُمْ مِثْلُهُ قَطُّ، وَرَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ قَائِمٌ يُصَلِّي، فَصَلَّى مَا شَاءَ اللهُ أَنْ يُصَلِّيَ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: مَنْ يَقُومُ الْآنَ فَيَعْلَمُ لَنَا خَبَرَ الْقَوْمِ، بَيَّضَ اللهُ وَجْهَهُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ ؟ قَالَ: فَوَاللهِ مَا اسْتَطَاعَ رَجُلٌ مِنْهُمْ أَنْ يَقُومَ لِمَا بِهِمْ مِنَ الشِّدَّةِ، ثُمَّ صَلَّى ﷺ مَا شَاءَ اللهُ أَنْ يُصَلِّيَ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: مَنْ يَقُومُ الْآنَ فَيَعْلَمُ لَنَا خَبَرَ الْقَوْمِ جَعَلَهُ اللهُ مَعِي فِي الْجَنَّةِ ؟ قَالَ: فَوَاللهِ مَا اسْتَطَاعَ رَجُلٌ مِنْهُمْ أَنْ يَقُومَ لِمَا هُمْ فِيهِ مِنَ الشِّدَّةِ، ثُمَّ قَالَ ﷺ: يَا فُلَانُ قُمْ، قَالَ: وَالَّذِي أَنْزَلَ عَلَيْكَ الْكِتَابَ لَا أَقُومُ إِلَيْكَ الْآنَ، ثُمَّ قَالَ ﷺ: يَا حُذَيْفَةُ قُمْ، قَالَ حُذَيْفَةُ: فَأَرَدْتُ أَنْ أَحْلِفَ كَمَا حَلَفَ صَاحِبِي، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ: إِنَّكُمْ لَحُلَّفٌ، قَالَ: فَقُمْتُ إِلَيْهِ ﷺ، فَقَالَ لِي: انْطَلِقْ فَاعْلَمْ لَنَا خَبَرَ الْقَوْمِ، وَلَا تُحْدِثَنَّ شَيْئًا حَتَّى تَرْجِعَ إِلَيَّ، قَالَ حُذَيْفَةُ: فَدَعَا لِي أَنْ يَحْفَظَنِي اللهُ مِنْ بَيْنِ يَدَيَّ وَمِنْ خَلْفِي حَتَّى أَرْجِعَ إِلَيْهِ، فَانْطَلَقْتُ وَبَيْنِي وَبَيْنَهُمْ سَبَخَةٌ يَابِسَةٌ، فَلَمْ أَنْشَبْ أَنْ قَطَعْتُهَا، فَإِذَا هُمْ فِي أَمْرٍ عَظِيمٍ، وَإِذَا أَبُو سُفْيَانَ يَصْطَلِي عَلَى نَارٍ لَهُمْ مِنَ الْبَرْدِ: وَإِذَا نُوَيْرَةٌ لَهُمْ تُضِيءُ أَحْيَانًا وَتَخْبُو أَحْيَانًا، فَإِذَا أَضَاءَتْ رَأَيْتُ مَنْ حَوْلَهَا، فَقُلْتُ: مَا أَنْتَظِرُ ؟ لَهَذَا عَدُوُّ اللهِ قَدْ رَأَيْتُ مَكَانَهُ، فَأَخَذْتُ سَهْمًا مِنْ كِنَانَتِي فَوَضَعْتُهُ فِي كَبِدِ الْقَوْسِ، ثُمَّ ذَكَرْتُ قَوْلَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ: لَا تُحْدِثَنَّ شَيْئًا حَتَّى تَرْجِعَ إِلَيَّ، فَأَلْقَيْتُهُ فِي الْكِنَانَةِ، ثُمَّ أَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ بِمَا هُمْ فِيهِ، فَجَعَلَ ﷺ يَحْمَدُ اللهَ تَعَالَى، فَأَرْسَلَ اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ الرِّيحَ، وَذَكَرَ الْآيَةَ: يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا اذْكُرُوا نِعْمَةَ اللهِ عَلَيْكُمْ الْآيَةَ

✧ On the night of the confederates, the people suffered severe hardship and cold such as they had never experienced before. The Messenger of God ﷺ stood praying, and he prayed as long as God willed. Then he said: Who will stand now and bring us news of the enemy? God will whiten his face on the Day of Resurrection. By God, no man among them was able to stand because of the hardship they were in. Then he ﷺ prayed as long as God willed, then said: Who will stand now and bring us news of the enemy? God will place him with me in Paradise. By God, no man among them was able to stand because of the hardship they were in. Then he ﷺ said: O so-and-so, stand. He said: By the One who sent down the Book upon you, I will not come to you now. Then he ﷺ said: O Hudhayfah, stand. Hudhayfah said: I wanted to swear as my companion had sworn, but the Prophet ﷺ said: You are indeed swearers. So I rose to him ﷺ, and he said to me: Go and bring us news of the enemy, and do not do anything until you return to me. Hudhayfah said: He prayed for me that God would protect me from before me and behind me until I returned. I went, and between me and them was a dry salt marsh, and I had hardly crossed it when I found them in a great state. Abu Sufyan was warming himself by a fire of theirs from the cold, and a small fire of theirs sometimes flared up and sometimes died down. When it flared up, I saw those around it. I said: What am I waiting for? This is an enemy of God, and I have seen his position. I took an arrow from my quiver and placed it in the bow, but then I remembered the Prophet's ﷺ words: Do not do anything until you return to me. So I threw it back into the quiver. Then I came to the Messenger of God ﷺ and told him what they were doing, and he ﷺ began to praise God Almighty. Then God, Mighty and Majestic, sent the wind, and he mentioned the verse: O you who believe, remember the favor of God upon you... (to the end of the verse).
