حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ زَيْدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي عُثْمَانَ، قَالَ: كُنْتُ مَعَ سَلْمَانَ الْفَارِسِيِّ تَحْتَ شَجَرَةٍ، وَأَخَذَ مِنْهَا غُصْنًا يَابِسًا فَهَزَّهُ حَتَّى تَحَاتَّ وَرَقُهُ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: يَا أَبَا عُثْمَانَ، أَلَا تَسْأَلُنِي لِمَ أَفْعَلُ هَذَا؟ قُلْتُ: وَلِمَ تَفْعَلُهُ؟ فَقَالَ: هَكَذَا فَعَلَ بِي رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَأَنَا مَعَهُ تَحْتَ شَجَرَةٍ، فَأَخَذَ مِنْهَا غُصْنًا يَابِسًا، فَهَزَّهُ حَتَّى تَحَاتَّ وَرَقُهُ فَقَالَ: " يَا سَلْمَانُ: أَلَا تَسْأَلُنِي لِمَ أَفْعَلُ هَذَا؟ " قُلْتُ: وَلِمَ تَفْعَلُهُ؟ قَالَ: " إِنَّ الْمُسْلِمَ إِذَا تَوَضَّأَ فَأَحْسَنَ الْوُضُوءَ، ثُمَّ صَلَّى الصَّلَوَاتِ الْخَمْسَ، تَحَاتَّتْ خَطَايَاهُ، كَمَا يَتَحَاتُّ هَذَا الْوَرَقُ "، وَقَالَ: {وَأَقِمِ الصَّلَاةَ طَرَفَيِ النَّهَارِ وَزُلَفًا مِنَ اللَّيْلِ إِنَّ الْحَسَنَاتِ يُذْهِبْنَ السَّيِّئَاتِ ذَلِكَ ذِكْرَى لِلذَّاكِرِينَ} [هود: ١١٤] (١)، ،

Abu Uthman says that once I was with Salman Farsi (may Allah be pleased with him) under a tree. He took hold of a dry branch of it and shook it, so its leaves began to fall. Then he said, "O Abu Uthman! Why do you not ask me why I did this?" I said, "Why did you do this?" He said, "Once I was with the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) under a tree, and the Prophet (ﷺ) did the same with me, and the same question and answer took place. After that, the Prophet (ﷺ) said that when a Muslim performs ablution well and offers the five prayers, his sins fall away just as these leaves are falling." Then the Prophet (ﷺ) recited this verse: 'And establish prayer at the two ends of the day and at the approach of the night. Indeed, good deeds do away with misdeeds. That is a reminder for those who remember.'
