حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ، أَخْبَرَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ مُغِيرَةَ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ، أَنَّهُ قَدِمَ الشَّامَ فَدَخَلَ مَسْجِدَ دِمَشْقَ فَصَلَّى فِيهِ رَكْعَتَيْنِ وَقَالَ: اللهُمَّ ارْزُقْنِي جَلِيسًا صَالِحًا قَالَ: فَجَاءَ فَجَلَسَ إِلَى أَبِي الدَّرْدَاءِ فَقَالَ لَهُ أَبُو الدَّرْدَاءِ: مِمَّنْ أَنْتَ؟ قَالَ: مِنْ أَهْلِ الْكُوفَةِ قَالَ: كَيْفَ سَمِعْتَ ابْنَ أُمِّ عَبْدٍ يَقْرَأُ: وَاللَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَى وَالنَّهَارِ إِذَا تَجَلَّى؟ قَالَ عَلْقَمَةُ: " وَالذَّكَرِ وَالْأُنْثَى " فَقَالَ أَبُو الدَّرْدَاءِ: " لَقَدْ سَمِعْتُهَا مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَمَا زَالَ هَؤُلَاءِ حَتَّى شَكَّكُونِي " ثُمَّ قَالَ: أَلَمْ يَكُنْ فِيكُمْ صَاحِبُ الْوِسَادِ، وَصَاحِبُ السِّرِّ الَّذِي لَا يَعْلَمُهُ أَحَدٌ غَيْرُهُ، وَالَّذِي أُجِيرَ مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ عَلَى لِسَانِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ؟ وَصَاحِبُ الْوِسَادِ: ابْنُ مَسْعُودٍ، وَصَاحِبُ السِّرِّ حُذَيْفَةُ، وَالَّذِي أُجِيرَ مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ، ، عَمَّارٌ (١)،

Translation

English translation

Alqamah says that once I prayed two rak'ahs in the grand mosque of Damascus, Syria, and prayed for a good companion. There I met Abu Darda (may Allah be pleased with him). He asked me, "Where are you from?" I replied, "I am from the people of Kufa." He said, "Do you recite the Holy Qur'an according to the recitation of Ibn Mas'ud?" I said, "Yes!" He said, "Recite Surah Al-Lail for me." I recited it in that way. He said, "I heard the Prophet recite it in this manner. People argued with me about this so much that I began to doubt." Then he said, "Are there not among you 'the one with the pillow,' those who know secrets that no one else knows and who, by the words of the Prophet, were declared protected from Satan? The one with the pillow is Ibn Mas'ud, the knower of secrets is Hudhayfah, and the one protected from Satan is Ammar."
