حَدَّثَنَا مَسْعَدَةُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ الْعَطَّارُ الْمَكِّيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ الْمُنْذِرِ الْحِزَامِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، مَوْلَى مُزَيْنَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا عِكْرِمَةُ بْنُ مُصْعَبِ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ أَبِي قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي قَتَادَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ، عَنْ أَبِي قَتَادَةَ قَالَ:
خَرَجَ مُعَاذُ بْنُ جَبَلٍ لِطَلَبِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ، فَلَمْ يَجِدْهُ، فَطَلَبَهُ فِي بُيُوتِهِ، فَلَمْ يَجِدْهُ، فَأَتْبَعَهُ فِي سِكَّةٍ سِكَّةٍ حَتَّى دُلَّ عَلَيْهِ فِي جَبَلِ ثَوَابٍ، فَخَرَجَ حَتَّى رَقِيَ جَبَلَ ثَوَابٍ، فَنَظَرَ يَمِينًا وَشِمَالًا، فَبَصُرَ بِهِ فِي الْكَهْفِ الَّذِي اتَّخَذَ النَّاسُ إِلَيْهِ طَرِيقًا إِلَى مَسْجِدِ الْفَتْحِ، قَالَ مُعَاذٌ: فَإِذَا هُوَ سَاجِدٌ، فَهَبَطْتُ مِنْ رَأْسِ الْجَبَلِ، وَهُوَ سَاجِدٌ، فَلَمْ يَرْفَعْ رَأْسَهُ حَتَّى أَسَأْتُ بِهِ الظَّنَّ، فَظَنَنْتُ أَنْ قَدْ قُبِضَ، فَلَمَّا رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، لَقَدْ أَسَأْتُ بِكَ الظَّنَّ، فَظَنَنْتُ أَنَّ قَدْ قُبِضْتَ، فَقَالَ: جَاءَنِي جِبْرِيلُ - عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ - بِهَذَا الْمَوْضِعِ، فَقَالَ: إِنَّ اللهَ - عَزَّ وَجَلَّ - يُقْرِئُكَ السَّلَامَ، وَيَقُولُ لَكَ: مَا تُحِبُّ أَنْ أَصْنَعَ بِأُمَّتِكَ ؟ قُلْتُ: اللهُ أَعْلَمُ، فَذَهَبَ، ثُمَّ جَاءَنِي، فَقَالَ: إِنَّهُ يَقُولُ: لَا أَسُوءُكَ فِي أُمَّتِكَ، فَسَجَدْتُ؛ فَأَفْضَلُ مَا يُتَقَرَّبُ بِهِ إِلَى اللهِ السُّجُودُ

✧ Mu'adh b. Jabal went out seeking the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, but he did not find him. He searched for him in his houses but did not find him. He followed him from lane to lane until he was directed to him on Mount Thawab. He went out and climbed Mount Thawab, looked right and left, and caught sight of him in the cave that people had taken as a path to the Mosque of Victory. Mu'adh said: "There he was, prostrating. I descended from the top of the mountain while he was prostrating, and he did not raise his head until I thought ill of him, thinking that he had been taken in death. When he raised his head, I said: 'O Messenger of Allah, I thought ill of you, thinking that you had passed away.' He said: 'Jibril ﷺ came to me in this spot and said: "Verily Allah, Mighty and Majestic, sends you greetings of peace and says to you: What would you love Me to do with your nation?" I said: "Allah knows best." He departed, then came back to me and said: "He says: I will not cause you grief regarding your nation." So I prostrated. The best means by which one draws near to Allah is prostration.'"
