حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ عُمَرَ، أَخْبَرَنَا مَالِكٌ، عَنِ ابْنِ بُرَيْدَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ: خَرَجَ بُرَيْدَةُ عِشَاءً فَلَقِيَهُ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَأَخَذَ بِيَدِهِ فَأَدْخَلَهُ الْمَسْجِدَ فَإِذَا صَوْتُ رَجُلٍ يَقْرَأُ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " تُرَاهُ مُرَائِيًا؟ " فَأَسْكَتَ بُرَيْدَةُ فَإِذَا رَجُلٌ يَدْعُو. فَقَالَ: اللهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ بِأَنِّي أَشْهَدُ أَنَّكَ أَنْتَ اللهُ الَّذِي (١) لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ. الْأَحَدُ، ، الصَّمَدُ الَّذِي لَمْ يَلِدْ وَلَمْ يُولَدْ وَلَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ كُفُوًا أَحَدٌ. فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ، أَوْ قَالَ وَالَّذِي نَفْسُ مُحَمَّدٍ بِيَدِهِ لَقَدْ سَأَلَ اللهَ بِاسْمِهِ الْأَعْظَمِ الَّذِي إِذَا سُئِلَ بِهِ أَعْطَى، وَإِذَا دُعِيَ بِهِ أَجَابَ ". قَالَ: فَلَمَّا كَانَ مِنَ الْقَابِلَةِ خَرَجَ بُرَيْدَةُ عِشَاءً، فَلَقِيَهُ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَأَخَذَ بِيَدِهِ فَأَدْخَلَهُ الْمَسْجِدَ، فَإِذَا صَوْتُ الرَّجُلِ يَقْرَأُ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " أَتَقُولُهُ مُرَائِيُا؟ " فَقَالَ بُرَيْدَةُ: أَتَقُولُهُ مُرَائِيُا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " لَا. بَلْ مُؤْمِنٌ مُنِيبٌ، لَا. بَلْ مُؤْمِنٌ مُنِيبٌ ". فَإِذَا الْأَشْعَرِيُّ يَقْرَأُ بِصَوْتٍ لَهُ فِي جَانِبِ الْمَسْجِدِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " إِنَّ الْأَشْعَرِيَّ، أَوْ إِنَّ عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ قَيْسٍ، أُعْطِيَ مِزْمَارًا مِنْ مَزَامِيرِ دَاوُدَ ". فَقُلْتُ: أَلَا أُخْبِرُهُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ؟ قَالَ: " بَلَى فَأَخْبِرْهُ " فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ، فَقَالَ: أَنْتَ لِي صَدِيقٌ أَخْبَرْتَنِي عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِحَدِيثٍ (١)، ، . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .، ، . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .، ، . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .، ،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Buraidah (may Allah be pleased with him) that once he went out at night and met the Noble Prophet (ﷺ). The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) took his hand and entered the mosque. Suddenly, the voice of a man reciting the Qur'an was heard. The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Do you think he is a show-off?" Buraidah (may Allah be pleased with him) remained silent. That man was supplicating: "O Allah! I ask You because I bear witness that You are Allah, there is no deity except You, You are One, Self-Sufficient, He begets not, nor is He begotten, and there is none like unto Him." The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) said, "By the One in Whose hand is my soul, he has asked Allah by His Greatest Name; when He is asked by it, He surely gives, and when supplicated by it, He surely answers." The next night, Buraidah (may Allah be pleased with him) again went out after 'Isha and again met the Noble Prophet (ﷺ), and the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) again took his hand and entered the mosque. Similarly, the voice of a man reciting the Qur'an was heard. The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) asked, "Do you think he is a show-off?" Buraidah (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "O Messenger of Allah! Do you think he is a show-off?" The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) said twice, "No, rather he is one who turns (to Allah) and a believer." This voice was that of Abu Musa Ash'ari (may Allah be pleased with him), who was reciting the Qur'an in a corner of the mosque. The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Ash'ari has been given one of the beautiful tones of Dawud (peace be upon him)." I said, "O Messenger of Allah! Should I not inform him of this?" The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Why not, inform him." So I informed him of this. He said, "You are my friend, for you have told me a hadith of the Noble Prophet (ﷺ)."
