حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْيَمَانِ، حَدَّثَنَا صَفْوَانُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو، عَنْ شُرَيْحِ بْنِ عُبَيْدٍ الْحَضْرَمِيِّ، يَرُدُّهُ إِلَى أَبِي ذَرٍّ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ: لَمَّا كَانَ الْعَشْرُ الْأَوَاخِرُ اعْتَكَفَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ، فَلَمَّا صَلَّى النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ صَلَاةَ الْعَصْرِ مِنْ يَوْمِ اثْنَيْنِ وَعِشْرِينَ، قَالَ: "إِنَّا قَائِمُونَ اللَّيْلَةَ إِنْ شَاءَ اللهُ، فَمَنْ شَاءَ مِنْكُمْ أَنْ يَقُومَ فَلْيَقُمْ " وَهِيَ لَيْلَةُ ثَلَاثٍ وَعِشْرِينَ، فَصَلَّاهَا النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ جَمَاعَةً بَعْدَ الْعَتَمَةِ حَتَّى ذَهَبَ ثُلُثُ اللَّيْلِ، ثُمَّ انْصَرَفَ، فَلَمَّا كَانَ لَيْلَةُ أَرْبَعٍ وَعِشْرِينَ لَمْ يُصَلِّ شَيْئًا وَلَمْ يَقُمْ، فَلَمَّا كَانَ لَيْلَةُ خَمْسٍ وَعِشْرِينَ قَامَ بَعْدَ صَلَاةِ الْعَصْرِ يَوْمَ أَرْبَعٍ وَعِشْرِينَ فَقَالَ: "إِنَّا قَائِمُونَ اللَّيْلَةَ إِنْ شَاءَ اللهُ، يَعْنِي لَيْلَةَ خَمْسٍ وَعِشْرِينَ، فَمَنْ شَاءَ فَلْيَقُمْ " فَصَلَّى بِالنَّاسِ حَتَّى ذَهَبَ ثُلُثُ اللَّيْلِ، ثُمَّ انْصَرَفَ، فَلَمَّا كَانَ لَيْلَةُ سِتٍّ وَعِشْرِينَ لَمْ يَقُلْ شَيْئًا وَلَمْ يَقُمْ، فَلَمَّا كَانَ عِنْدَ صَلَاةِ الْعَصْرِ مِنْ يَوْمِ سِتٍّ وَعِشْرِينَ قَامَ فَقَالَ: "إِنَّا قَائِمُونَ إِنْ شَاءَ اللهُ، يَعْنِي لَيْلَةَ سَبْعٍ وَعِشْرِينَ، فَمَنْ شَاءَ أَنْ يَقُومَ فَلْيَقُمْ ". قَالَ أَبُو ذَرٍّ: فَتَجَلَّدْنَا لِلْقِيَامِ فَصَلَّى بِنَا النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حَتَّى ذَهَبَ ثُلُثَا اللَّيْلِ، ثُمَّ انْصَرَفَ إِلَى قُبَّتِهِ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ فَقُلْتُ لَهُ: إِنْ كُنَّا لَقَدْ طَمِعْنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَنْ تَقُومَ بِنَا حَتَّى تُصْبِحَ. فَقَالَ: "يَا أَبَا ذَرٍّ، إِنَّكَ إِذَا صَلَّيْتَ مَعَ إِمَامِكَ وَانْصَرَفْتَ إِذَا انْصَرَفَ، كُتِبَ لَكَ قُنُوتُ لَيْلَتِكَ " (١)، ، °
Translation
English translation
It is narrated from Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him) that once we observed the fasts of Ramadan with the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ). The Prophet (ﷺ) did not perform Qiyam (night prayer) with us for the entire month. When the 24th night came, the Prophet (ﷺ) performed Qiyam with us until about a third of the night had passed. When the next night came, the Prophet (ﷺ) did not perform Qiyam with us again. On the 26th night, he performed such a long Qiyam with us that about half the night had passed. I said, "O Messenger of Allah! If only you would continue to lead us in prayer for the rest of the night?" The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "When a person stands with the Imam and remains with him until he finishes, it is counted for him as if he spent the whole night in prayer."
