أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ فُورَكٍ، أخبرنا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا يُونُسُ بْنُ حَبِيبٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو دَاوُدَ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ، عَنْ ثَابِتٍ، وَحُمَيْدٍ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، عَنْ عُبَادَةَ بْنِ الصَّامِتِ،
" أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ خَرَجَ وَهُوَ يُرِيدُ أَنْ يُخْبِرَ أَصْحَابَهُ بِلَيْلَةِ الْقَدْرِ فَتَلَاحَى رَجُلَانِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: " خَرَجْتُ وَأَنَا أُرِيدُ أَنْ أُخْبِرُكُمْ بِلَيْلَةِ الْقَدْرِ فَتَلَاحَى رَجُلَانِ، فَاخْتَلَجَتْ مِنِّي فَاطْلُبُوهَا فِي الْعَشْرِ الْأَوَاخِرِ فِي سَابِعَةٍ تَبْقَى، أَوْ تَاسِعَةٍ تَبْقَى، أَوْ خَامِسَةٍ تَبْقَى "

"The Messenger of Allah ﷺ went out intending to inform his Companions about the Night of Decree (Laylat al-Qadr), but two men fell into a quarrel. So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "I went out intending to inform you about the Night of Decree, but two men quarreled, and it was taken away from me. So seek it in the last ten nights, on the seventh remaining, or the ninth remaining, or the fifth remaining."
