حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الدَّبَرِيُّ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّزَّاقِ عِنْ مَعْمَرٍ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ وَعَاصِمٍ الْأَحْوَلِ عَنْ أَبِي قِلَابَةَ عَنْ عَوْفِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ الْأَشْجَعِيِّ قَالَ
كُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فِي سَفَرٍ فَنَزَلْنَا لَيْلَةً فَقُمْتُ أَطْلُبُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَلَمْ أَجِدْهُ وَوَجَدْتُ مُعَاذَ بْنَ جَبَلٍ وَأَبَا مُوسَى الْأَشْعَرِيَّ فَقَالَا مَا حَاجَتُكَ؟ قُلْتُ أَيْنَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَا مَا نَدْرِي فَبَيْنَمَا نَحْنُ عَلَى ذَلِكَ إِذْ سَمِعْنَا فِي أَعْلَى الْوَادِي هَزِيرًا كَهَزِيرِ الرَّحَى فَلَمْ يَلْبَثْ أَنْ جَاءَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَقُلْنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ فَقَدْنَاكَ اللَّيْلَةَ فَقَالَ «أَتَانِي آتٍ مِنْ رَبِّي فَخَيَّرَنِي بَيْنَ أَنْ تَكُونَ أُمَّتِي شَطْرَ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ وَبَيْنَ الشَّفَاعَةِ فَاخْتَرْتُ الشَّفَاعَةَ» فَقُلْنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ادْعُ اللهَ أَنْ يَجْعَلَنَا مِنْ أَهْلِ الشَّفَاعَةِ فَقَالَ «اللهُمَّ اجْعَلْنَا مِنْ أَهْلِهَا ثُمَّ أَتَيْنَا الْقَوْمَ فَأَخْبَرْنَاهُمْ» فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ادْعُ اللهَ أَنْ يَجْعَلَنَا مِنْ أَهْلِ شَفَاعَتِكَ فَقَالَ «اللهُمَّ اجْعَلْهُمْ مِنْ أَهْلِهَا» ثُمَّ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «إِنَّ شَفَاعَتِي لِمَنْ مَاتَ لَا يُشْرِكُ بِاللهِ شَيْئًا»

✧ We were with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ during a journey, and we stopped for the night. I got up to look for the Prophet ﷺ, but I couldn't find him. Instead, I found Mu'adh ibn Jabal and Abu Musa Al-Ash'ari, so I asked, "Where is the Messenger of Allah?" They replied, "We don't know." While we were in this situation, we heard a sound coming from the top of the valley, like the sound of a grinding mill. Soon after, the Prophet ﷺ came, and we said, "O Messenger of Allah, we lost you tonight." He said, "I was visited by a caller from my Lord who gave me the choice between having half of my Ummah enter Paradise and having the power of intercession. So I chose intercession." We said, "O Messenger of Allah, pray to Allah to make us among the people of your intercession." He said, "O Allah, make them among the people of intercession." Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Indeed, my intercession will be for those who die without associating anything with Allah."
