حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ، عَنْ يُونُسَ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " مَا مِنْ رَجُلٍ يَأْخُذُ مِمَّا فَرَضَ (٢) اللهُ وَرَسُولُهُ كَلِمَةً، أَوِ اثْنَتَيْنِ، أَوْ ثَلَاثًا، أَوْ أَرْبَعًا، أَوْ خَمْسًا، فَيَجْعَلُهُنَّ فِي طَرَفِ رِدَائِهِ، فَيَعْمَلُ بِهِنَّ وَيُعَلِّمُهُنَّ؟ "، قُلْتُ: أَنَا، وَبَسَطْتُ ثَوْبِي، وَجَعَلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُحَدِّثُ حَتَّى انْقَضَى حَدِيثُهُ، فَضَمَمْتُ ثَوْبِي إِلَى صَدْرِي، فَإِنِّي أَرْجُو أَنْ أَكُونَ لَمْ أَنْسَ حَدِيثًا سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْهُ (٣)،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that I once heard the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) saying: Is there any man who, on behalf of Allah and His Messenger, would acquire one word or two, three, four, or five words, place them in the corner of his sheet, learn them, and teach them to others? I presented myself. The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) said: Then spread your cloth. So I spread my cloth. The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) narrated the hadith and said: Attach it to your body. I pressed it to my chest. Because of this, I hope that after this, I have never forgotten any hadith that I heard from the Noble Prophet (ﷺ).
