أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا بَكْرٌ وَهُوَ ابْنُ مُضَرَ عَنِ ابْنِ الْهَادِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ أَتَيْتُ الطُّورَ فَوَجَدْتُ ثَمَّ كَعْبًا فَمَكَثْتُ أَنَا وَهُوَ يَوْمًا
أُحَدِّثُهُ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَيُحَدِّثُنِي عَنِ التَّوْرَاةِ فَقُلْتُ لَهُ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «خَيْرُ يَوْمٍ طَلَعَتْ فِيهِ الشَّمْسُ يَوْمُ الْجُمُعَةِ فِيهِ خُلِقَ آدَمُ وَفِيهِ أُهْبِطَ وَفِيهِ تِيبَ عَلَيْهِ وَفِيهِ قُبِضَ وَفِيهِ تَقُومُ السَّاعَةُ مَا عَلَى الْأَرْضِ مِنْ دَابَّةٍ إِلَّا وَهِيَ تُصْبِحُ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ مُصِيخَةً حَتَّى تَطْلُعَ الشَّمْسُ شَفَقًا مِنَ السَّاعَةِ إِلَّا ابْنَ آدَمَ وَفِيهِ سَاعَةٌ لَا يُصَادِفُهَا مُؤْمِنٌ وَهُوَ فِي الصَّلَاةِ يَسْأَلُ اللهَ شَيْئًا إِلَّا أَعْطَاهُ إِيَّاهُ» فَقَالَ كَعْبٌ ذَلِكَ يَوْمٌ فِي كُلِّ سَنَةٍ؟ قُلْتُ بَلْ هِيَ فِي كُلِّ يَوْمِ جُمُعَةٍ فَقَرَأَ كَعْبٌ قَالَ صَدَقَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ هُوَ فِي كُلِّ جُمُعَةٍ فَخَرَجْتُ فَلَقِيتُ بَصْرَةَ بْنَ أَبِي بَصْرَةَ الْغِفَارِيَّ فَقَالَ مِنْ أَيْنَ جِئْتَ؟ قُلْتُ مِنَ الطُّورِ قَالَ لَوْ لَقِيتُكَ مِنْ قَبْلِ أَنْ تَأْتِيَهُ لَمْ تَأْتِهِ قُلْتُ لَهُ لِمَ؟ قَالَ إِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ لَا تُعْمَلُ الْمَطِيُّ إِلَّا إِلَى ثَلَاثَةِ مَسَاجِدَ الْمَسْجِدِ الْحَرَامِ وَمَسْجِدِي وَمَسْجِدِ بَيْتِ الْمَقْدِسِ [294] فَلَقِيتُ عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ سَلَامٍ فَقُلْتُ لَهُ لَوْ رَأَيْتَنِي خَرَجْتُ إِلَى الطُّورِ فَلَقِيتُ كَعْبًا فَمَكَثْتُ أَنَا وَهُوَ يَوْمًا أُحَدِّثُهُ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَيُحَدِّثُنِي عَنِ التَّوْرَاةِ فَقُلْتُ لَهُ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «خَيْرُ يَوْمٍ طَلَعَتْ فِيهِ الشَّمْسُ يَوْمُ الْجُمُعَةِ فِيهِ خُلِقَ آدَمُ وَفِيهِ أُهْبِطَ وَفِيهِ تِيبَ عَلَيْهِ وَفِيهِ قُبِضَ وَفِيهِ تَقُومُ السَّاعَةُ مَا عَلَى الْأَرْضِ مِنْ دَابَّةٍ إِلَّا وَهِيَ تُصْبِحُ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ مُصِيخَةً حَتَّى تَطْلُعَ الشَّمْسُ شَفَقًا مِنَ السَّاعَةِ إِلَّا ابْنَ آدَمَ وَفِيهِ سَاعَةٌ لَا يُصَادِفُهَا عَبْدٌ مُؤْمِنٌ وَهُوَ فِي الصَّلَاةِ يَسْأَلُ اللهَ شَيْئًا إِلَّا أَعْطَاهُ إِيَّاهُ» فَقَالَ كَعْبٌ ذَلِكَ يَوْمُ فِي كُلِّ سَنَةٍ؟ فَقَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ سَلَامٍ كَذَبَ كَعْبٌ قُلْتُ قَرَأَ كَعْبٌ فَقَالَ صَدَقَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَهُوَ فِي كُلِّ جُمُعَةٍ قَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ سَلَامٍ صَدَقَ كَعْبٌ إِنِّي لَأَعْلَمُ تِلْكَ السَّاعَةَ قُلْتُ يَا أَخِي حَدِّثْنِي بِهَا قَالَ هِيَ آخِرُ سَاعَةٍ مَنْ يَوْمِ الْجُمُعَةِ قَبْلَ أَنْ تَغِيبَ الشَّمْسُ فَقُلْتُ أَلَيْسَ قَدْ سَمِعْتَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «لَا يُصَادِفُهَا مُؤْمِنٌ وَهُوَ فِي الصَّلَاةِ وَلَيْسَتْ تِلْكَ السَّاعَةُ صَلَاةً» قَالَ أَلَيْسَ قَدْ سَمِعْتَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «مَنْ صَلَّى وَجَلَسَ يَنْتَظِرُ الصَّلَاةَ لَمْ يَزَلْ فِي صَلَاةٍ حَتَّى تَأْتِيَهُ الصَّلَاةُ الَّتِي تَلِيهَا؟» قُلْتُ بَلَى قَالَ فَهُوَ كَذَلِكَ

✧ I was narrating to him from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and he was narrating to me from the Torah. I said to him: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'The best day on which the sun rises is Friday. On it Adam was created, on it he was sent down, on it he was forgiven, on it he died, and on it the Hour will commence. There is no creature on earth except that it wakes on Friday listening intently until the sun rises, out of fear of the Hour, except the son of Adam. And in it there is an hour in which a believer, while in prayer, asking Allah for something, is given it.' Ka'b said: 'That is one day every year?' I said: 'Rather it is every Friday.' Ka'b recited and said: 'The Messenger of Allah ﷺ spoke the truth; it is every Friday.' I left and met Basrah b. Abi Basrah al-Ghifari, who said: 'Where have you come from?' I said: 'From the Mount.' He said: 'If I had met you before you went there, you would not have gone.' I said to him: 'Why?' He said: 'I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: "Mounts should not be saddled except to three mosques: al-Masjid al-Haram, this mosque of mine, and the Mosque of Jerusalem."' Then I met Abdullah b. Salam and said to him: 'If only you had seen me: I went out to the Mount and met Ka'b, and he and I spent a day, I narrating to him from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and he narrating to me from the Torah. I said to him: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "The best day on which the sun rises is Friday. On it Adam was created, on it he was sent down, on it he was forgiven, on it he died, and on it the Hour will commence. There is no creature on earth except that it wakes on Friday listening intently until the sun rises, out of fear of the Hour, except the son of Adam. And in it there is an hour in which a believing servant, while in prayer, asking Allah for something, is given it." Ka'b said: "That is one day every year?" Abdullah b. Salam said: "Ka'b lied." I said: "Ka'b recited and said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ spoke the truth, and it is every Friday." Abdullah b. Salam said: "Ka'b spoke the truth. Indeed I know that hour." I said: "O my brother, tell me it." He said: "It is the last hour of Friday before the sun sets." I said: "Did you not hear the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: 'A believer does not encounter it while in prayer, and that hour is not a time of prayer'?" He said: "Did you not hear the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: 'Whoever prays and sits waiting for the prayer, he remains in prayer until the next prayer comes to him'?" I said: "Yes." He said: "So it is like that."
