حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ حَدَّثَنَا رِفَاعَةُ بْنُ يَحْيَى بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ رِفَاعَةَ بْنِ رَافِعٍ الزُّرَقِيُّ عَنْ عَمِّ أَبِيهِ مُعَاذِ بْنِ رِفَاعَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ

صَلَّيْتُ خَلْفَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ، فَعَطَسْتُ، فَقُلْتُ: الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ حَمْدًا كَثِيرًا طَيِّبًا مُبَارَكًا فِيهِ، مُبَارَكًا عَلَيْهِ، كَمَا يُحِبُّ رَبُّنَا وَيَرْضَى. فَلَمَّا صَلَّى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ انْصَرَفَ، فَقَالَ: «مَنِ الْمُتَكَلِّمُ فِي الصَّلَاةِ؟» فَلَمْ يَتَكَلَّمْ أَحَدٌ. ثُمَّ قَالَهَا الثَّانِيَةَ: «مَنِ الْمُتَكَلِّمُ فِي الصَّلَاةِ؟» فَلَمْ يَتَكَلَّمْ أَحَدٌ. ثُمَّ قَالَهَا الثَّالِثَةَ: «مَنِ الْمُتَكَلِّمُ فِي الصَّلَاةِ؟» فَقَالَ رِفَاعَةُ بْنُ رَافِعِ بْنِ عَفْرَاءَ: أَنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ. قَالَ: «كَيْفَ قُلْتَ؟» قَالَ: قُلْتُ: الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ حَمْدًا كَثِيرًا طَيِّبًا مُبَارَكًا فِيهِ، مُبَارَكًا عَلَيْهِ، كَمَا يُحِبُّ رَبُّنَا وَيَرْضَى. فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ: «وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ، لَقَدِ ابْتَدَرَهَا بِضْعَةٌ وَثَلَاثُونَ مَلَكًا، أَيُّهُمْ يَصْعَدُ بِهَا».

I prayed behind the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and I sneezed, so I said: “Praise be to Allah—much, good, and blessed praise, blessed in it and upon it, as our Lord loves and is pleased with.” When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ finished the prayer, he turned and said: “Who was the one speaking during the prayer?” No one spoke. Then he said it a second time: “Who was the one speaking during the prayer?” No one spoke. Then he said it a third time: “Who was the one speaking during the prayer?” Rifā‘ah ibn Rāfi‘ ibn ‘Afrā’ said: “It was I, O Messenger of Allah.” He said: “What did you say?” He replied: “I said: ‘Praise be to Allah—much, good, and blessed praise, blessed in it and upon it, as our Lord loves and is pleased with.’” The Prophet ﷺ said: “By the One in Whose hand is my soul, indeed thirty-some angels rushed to it, each of them seeking to be the one to take it up.”
