وَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ، عَنْ عَاصِمٍ، عَنْ أَبِي عُثْمَانَ، عَنْ سَلْمَانَ ؓ، قَالَ:
يَأْتُونَ مُحَمَّدًا ﷺ، فَيَقُولُونَ لَهُ: يَا نَبِيَّ اللهِ أَنْتَ الَّذِي فَتَحَ اللهُ بِكَ وَخَتَمَ بِكَ، وَغَفَرَ لَكَ مَا تَقَدَّمَ مِنْ ذَنْبِكَ، وَمَا تَأَخَّرَ، جِئْتَ فِي هَذَا الْيَوْمِ آمِنًا، وَتَرَى مَا نَحْنُ فِيهِ، فَقُمْ فَاشْفَعْ لَنَا إِلَى رَبِّنَا، فَيَقُولُ ﷺ: أَنَا صَاحِبُكُمْ، فَيَخْرُجُ فَيَحُوشُ النَّاسَ، حَتَّى يَنْتَهِيَ إِلَى بَابِ الْجَنَّةِ، فَيَأْخُذُ بِحَلْقَةٍ فِي الْبَابِ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ، فَيَقْرَعُ الْبَابَ، فَيُقَالُ: مَنْ هَذَا ؟ فَيُقَالُ: مُحَمَّدٌ، فَيُفْتَحُ لَهُ حَتَّى يَقُومَ بَيْنَ يَدَيِ اللهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ، فَيَسْتَأْذِنُ فِي السُّجُودِ، فَيُؤْذَنُ لَهُ، فَيُنَادَى: يَا مُحَمَّدُ ارْفَعْ رَأْسَكَ، وَسَلْ تُعْطَهْ، وَاشْفَعْ تُشَفَّعْ، وَادْعُ تُجَبْ، قَالَ: فَيُفْتَحُ لَهُ بَابٌ مِنَ الثَّنَاءِ عَلَيْهِ وَالتَّحْمِيدِ وَالتَّمْجِيدِ، مَا لَمْ يَفْتَحْ لِأَحَدٍ مِنَ الْخَلَائِقِ، فَيُنَادَى: يَا مُحَمَّدُ ارْفَعْ رَأْسَكَ، سَلْ تُعْطَهْ، وَاشْفَعْ تُشَفَّعْ، وَادْعُ تُجَبْ، فَيَرْفَعُ رَأْسَهُ، فَيَقُولُ: رَبِّ أُمَّتِي، رَبِّ أُمَّتِي، مَرَّتَيْنِ أَوْ ثَلَاثًا، قَالَ سَلْمَانُ ؓ: فَيَشْفَعُ فِي كُلِّ مَنْ كَانَ فِي قَلْبِهِ مِثْقَالُ حَبَّةٍ مِنْ حِنْطَةٍ مِنْ إِيمَانٍ، أَوْ مِثْقَالُ شَعِيرَةٍ مِنْ إِيمَانٍ، أَوْ مِثْقَالُ حَبَّةٍ مِنْ خَرْدَلٍ مِنْ إِيمَانٍ، فَذَلِكَ هُوَ الْمَقَامُ الْمَحْمُودُ

✧ They will come to Muhammad ﷺ and say to him: 'O Prophet of Allah, you are the one through whom Allah opened and sealed, and He forgave you your past and future sins. You have come on this day in safety, and you see what we are in. So arise and intercede for us with our Lord.' He ﷺ will say: 'I am your companion.' Then he will go out and gather the people until he reaches the gate of Paradise. He will take hold of a golden ring on the gate and knock on it. It will be said: 'Who is this?' It will be said: 'Muhammad.' Then it will be opened for him until he stands before Allah, mighty and majestic be He. He will ask permission to prostrate, and permission will be given to him. Then it will be called out: 'O Muhammad, raise your head, ask and you will be given, intercede and you will be granted intercession, and supplicate and you will be answered.' He said: Then a door of praise, glorification, and magnification will be opened for him such as has not been opened for anyone among creation. Then it will be called out: 'O Muhammad, raise your head, ask and you will be given, intercede and you will be granted intercession, and supplicate and you will be answered.' He will raise his head and say: 'My Lord, my community; my Lord, my community,' two or three times. Salman ؓ said: Then he will intercede for everyone who had in his heart the weight of a grain of wheat of faith, or the weight of a barley grain of faith, or the weight of a mustard seed of faith. That is the praiseworthy station.
