حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْعَبَّاسِ الْأَصْبَهَانِيُّ ثنا أَبُو مَسْعُودٍ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ الْفُرَاتِ ثنا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ الدَّشْتَكِيُّ ثنا عَمْرُو بْنُ أَبِي قَيْسٍ عَنْ سِمَاكِ بْنِ حَرْبٍ عَنْ أَبِي أُمَيَّةَ الثَّقَفِيِّ عَنْ رَجُلٍ عَنْ عَمِّهِ قَالَ
خَرَجَ عَلَيْنَا مُعَاوِيَةُ وَقَدْ صَلَّيْنَا الظُّهْرَ وَنَحْنُ نَدْعُو اللهَ فَقَالَ مَكَانَكُمْ حَتَّى آتِيَكُمْ فَخَرَجَ عَلَيْنَا وَقَدِ ارْتَدَى فَلَمَّا صَلَّى الْعَصْرَ قَالَ أَلَا أُحَدِّثُكُمْ بِشَيْءٍ فَعَلَهُ أَصْحَابُ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ صَلُّوا مَعَهُ الْأُولَى ثُمَّ جَلَسُوا إِلَى أَنْ صَلُّوا مَعَهُ الْعَصْرَ فَخَرَجَ عَلَيْهِمْ فَقَالَ «مَا بَرَحْتُمْ بَعْدُ؟» قَالُوا لَا قَالَ «لَوْ رَأَيْتُمْ رَبَّكُمْ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى فَتْحَ بَابًا مِنْ أَبْوَابِ السَّمَاءِ يُبَاهِي مَلَائِكَتَهُ مَجَالِسَكُمْ وَأَنْتُمْ تَرْقُبُونَ الصَّلَاةَ»

✧ Mu'awiyah came out to us after we had prayed Zuhr while we were supplicating to Allah. He said: 'Stay where you are until I come to you.' He came out to us wearing a cloak and after he prayed 'Asr he said: 'Shall I not tell you something that the Companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ did? They prayed the first prayer with him, then sat until they prayed 'Asr with him. He came out to them and said: "Have you been sitting here all this time?" They said: "No." He said: "If you could see your Lord, blessed and exalted, He opened a gate of the gates of heaven and boasted to His angels about your gathering while you were waiting for the prayer."'
