أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ الْوَهَّابِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدٌ عَنْ أَبِي عُثْمَانَ النَّهْدِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي مُوسَى الْأَشْعَرِيِّ قَالَ
كُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فِي غَزَاةٍ فَجَعَلْنَا لَا نَصْعَدُ شَرَفًا وَلَا نَهْبِطُ وَادِيًا إِلَّا رَفَعْنَا أَصْوَاتَنَا بِالتَّكْبِيرِ قَالَ فَدَنَا مِنَّا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ «أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ أَرْبِعُوا عَلَى أَنْفُسِكُمْ فَإِنَّكُمْ لَا تَدْعُونَ أَصَمًّا وَلَا غَائِبًا إِنَّمَا تَدْعُونَ سَمِيعًا بَصِيرًا إِنَّ الَّذِي تَدْعُونَ أَقْرَبُ إِلَى أَحَدِكُمْ مِنْ عُنُقِ رَاحِلَتِهِ» ثُمَّ قَالَ «يَا عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ قَيْسٍ أَلَا أُعَلِّمُكَ كَلِمَةٍ هِيَ مِنْ كُنُوزِ الْجَنَّةِ؟ لَا حَوْلَ وَلَا قُوَّةَ إِلَّا بِاللهِ»

✧ We were with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ on a military expedition, and we never ascended an elevation or descended into a valley without raising our voices with takbir. He said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ came near to us and said: “O people, be easy on yourselves, for you are not calling upon one who is deaf or absent. You are only calling upon One who is All-Hearing, All-Seeing. Indeed, the One you are calling is closer to one of you than the neck of his mount.” Then he said: “O ‘Abdullah b. Qays, shall I not teach you a word that is from the treasures of Paradise? (It is:) There is no might and no power except with Allah.”
