وَقَالَ عَبْدُ بْنُ حُمَيْدٍ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ مَسْلَمَةَ، ثَنَا خَالِدُ بْنُ إِلْيَاسَ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ بْنِ رِفَاعَةَ، قَالَ:

دَخَلْتُ عَلَى جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ ؓ بِمَكَّةَ، فَوَجَدْتُهُ يُصَلِّي جَالِسًا، فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ، قَالَ: إِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ: مَا صَلَّى رَجُلٌ الْعَتَمَةَ فِي جَمَاعَةٍ ثُمَّ صَلَّى بَعْدَهَا مَا بَدَا لَهُ، ثُمَّ أَوْتَرَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَنَامَ، إِلَّا كَانَ تِلْكَ اللَّيْلَةَ كَأَنَّهُ لَقِيَ لَيْلَةَ الْقَدْرِ

✧ I entered upon Jabir b. Abdullah ؓ in Makkah and found him praying sitting down, and he mentioned the hadith: I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: No man prays the Isha prayer in congregation, then prays after it as much as he wishes, then prays witr before sleeping, except that on that night he is as if he encountered Laylat al-Qadr.
