حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ الْمِقْدَامِ أَبُو الأَشْعَثِ الْعِجْلِيُّ الْبَصْرِيُّ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ عَنْ عَاصِمٍ الأَحْوَلِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ سَرْجِسَ قَالَ
أَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ وَهُوَ فِي نَاسٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ فَدُرْتُ هَكَذَا مِنْ خَلْفِهِ فَعَرَفَ الَّذِي أُرِيدُ فَأَلْقَى الرِّدَاءَ عَنْ ظَهْرِهِ فَرَأَيْتُ مَوْضِعَ الْخَاتَمِ عَلَى كَتِفَيْهِ مِثْلَ الْجُمْعِ حَوْلَهَا خِيلانٌ كَأَنَّهَا ثَآلِيلُ فَرَجَعْتُ حَتَّى اسْتَقْبَلْتُهُ فَقُلْتُ غَفَرَ اللَّهُ لَكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ فَقَالَ وَلَكَ فَقَالَ الْقَوْمُ أَسْتَغْفَرَ لَكَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ؟ فَقَالَ نَعَمْ وَلَكُمْ ثُمَّ تَلا هَذِهِ الآيَةَ ﴿وَاسْتَغْفِرْ لِذَنْبِكَ وَلِلْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَالْمُؤْمِنَاتِ

"I came to Allah’s Messenger ﷺ, while he was among a group of his Companions, so I circled like this behind him. He understood what I wanted, so he threw the cloak off his back. I thus saw the place of the Seal on his shoulders, like a clenched fist surrounded by moles, as if they were warts. I came around to face him, and I said: 'May Allah forgive you, O Messenger of Allah!' He said: ‘And you,' so the people exclaimed: 'Allah’s Messenger ﷺ has asked forgiveness for you!' He said: 'Yes, and also for you!' Then he recited this Quranic verse: 'And ask forgiveness for your sin, and for the believing men and the believing women [was'tagh'fir li-dhanbika wa li’l mu'minina wal-mu’minat].”(Q.47:19).”’
