أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدَةُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ عَنْ سُوَيْدٍ عَنْ زُهَيْرٍ حَدَّثَنَا عَاصِمٍ الْأَحْوَلِ عَنْ أَبِي عُثْمَانَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو مُوسَى قَالَ
كُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فِي سَفَرٍ فَأَشْرَفَ النَّاسُ عَلَى وَادٍ فَجَهَرُوا بِالتَّكْبِيرِ وَالتَّهْلِيلِ اللهُ أَكْبَرُ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ وَرَفَعَ عَاصِمٌ صَوْتَهُ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «أَرْبَعُوا عَلَى أَنْفُسِكُمْ إِنَّ الَّذِي تَدَعُونَ لَيْسَ بِأَصَمَّ إِنَّهُ سَمِيعٌ قَرِيبٌ إِنَّهُ مَعَكُمْ» أَعَادَهَا ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ قَالَ أَبُو مُوسَى فَسَمِعَنِي أَقُولُ وَأَنَا خَلْفَهُ لَا حَوْلَ وَلَا قُوَّةَ إِلَّا بِاللهِ قَالَ «يَا عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ قَيْسٍ أَلَا أَدُلُّكَ عَلَى كَلِمَةٍ مِنْ كُنُوزِ الْجَنَّةِ؟» قُلْتُ بَلَى فِدَاكَ أَبِي وَأُمِّي قَالَ «لَا حَوْلَ وَلَا قُوَّةَ إِلَّا بِاللهِ»

✧ We were with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ on a journey when the people came upon a valley and raised their voices with takbir and tahlil: 'Allahu Akbar, la ilaha illa Allah.' Asim raised his voice, and the Prophet ﷺ said, 'Lower your voices upon yourselves. The One you are calling is not deaf. He is All-Hearing, Near; He is with you.' He repeated it three times. Abu Musa said: He heard me saying, while I was behind him, 'There is no power and no strength except with Allah.' He said, 'O Abdullah b. Qays, shall I not point you to a word from the treasures of Paradise?' I said, 'Yes, may my father and mother be your ransom.' He said, 'There is no power and no strength except with Allah.'
