حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ الْأَوْزَاعِيَّ، يَقُولُ: أَخْبَرَنِي هَارُونُ بْنُ رِئَابٍ، عَنِ الْأَحْنَفِ بْنِ قَيْسٍ، قَالَ: دَخَلْتُ بَيْتَ الْمَقْدِسِ، فَوَجَدْتُ فِيهِ رَجُلًا يُكْثِرُ السُّجُودَ، فَوَجَدْتُ فِي نَفْسِي مِنْ ذَلِكَ، فَلَمَّا انْصَرَفَ قُلْتُ: أَتَدْرِي عَلَى شَفْعٍ انْصَرَفْتَ أَمْ عَلَى وِتْرٍ؟ قَالَ: إِنْ أَكُ لَا أَدْرِي، فَإِنَّ اللهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ يَدْرِي، ثُمَّ قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي حِبِّي أَبُو الْقَاسِمِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ. ثُمَّ بَكَى، ثُمَّ قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي حِبِّي أَبُو الْقَاسِمِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ. ثُمَّ، ، بَكَى، ثُمَّ قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي حِبِّي أَبُو الْقَاسِمِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ: "مَا مِنْ عَبْدٍ يَسْجُدُ لِلَّهِ سَجْدَةً، إِلَّا رَفَعَهُ اللهُ بِهَا دَرَجَةً، وَحَطَّ عَنْهُ بِهَا خَطِيئَةً، وَكَتَبَ لَهُ بِهَا حَسَنَةً ". قَالَ: قُلْتُ: أَخْبِرْنِي مَنْ أَنْتَ يَرْحَمُكَ اللهُ؟ قَالَ: أَنَا أَبُو ذَرٍّ، صَاحِبُ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ. فَتَقَاصَرَتْ إِلَيَّ نَفْسِي (١)،

Translation

English translation

Mutarrif says that once I was sitting with some people of the Quraysh when a man came and started praying. He would perform ruku and sujood, then stand up and again perform ruku and sujood, and would not sit in between. I said, "By Allah! It seems as if he does not know anything, whether to end the prayer with salam on even or odd rak'ahs." The people said to me, "Why don't you go to him and explain to him?" So I went to him and said, "O servant of Allah! It seems that you do not know whether to end the prayer on even or odd rak'ahs." He said, "Allah knows, I heard the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) say: 'Whoever performs a sajdah for Allah, Allah writes for him one good deed, forgives one sin, and raises him one degree.'" I asked him, "Who are you?" He replied, "I am Abu Dharr." So I returned to my companions and said, "May Allah give you a bad reward on behalf of your companions; you sent me to teach religion to a companion of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him)."
