أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ مَسْعُودٍ حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدٌ عَنْ هِشَامٍ عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ يَقُولُ

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِذَا بَقِيَ ثُلُثُ اللَّيْلِ يَنْزِلُ اللهُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى إِلَى السَّمَاءِ الدُّنْيَا فَيَقُولُ مَنْ ذَا الَّذِي يَدْعُونِي أَسْتَجِيبُ لَهُ مَنْ ذَا الَّذِي يَسْتَغْفِرُنِي أَغْفِرُ لَهُ مَنْ ذَا الَّذِي يَسْتَكْشِفُ الضُّرَّ أَكْشِفُ حَتَّى يَنْفَجِرَ الصُّبْحُ

✧ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "When a third of the night remains, Allah, Blessed and Exalted, descends to the lowest heaven and says: 'Who is there who supplicates to Me that I may answer him? Who is there who seeks My forgiveness that I may forgive him? Who is there who seeks relief from harm that I may relieve him?' until the morning breaks."
