ahmad:17064Yazīd b. Hārūn > Abū Mālik > Ribʿī b. Ḥirāsh > Ḥudhayfah > a man Atá Bih Allāh ʿAz And Jal

[Machine] A man came to Allah and asked him, "What have you done in the world?" The man replied, "I have not done any good deeds, not even the weight of an atom, but I hope that you will forgive me for it." Allah said to him three times, "Did you ever receive any favor from me in the world, such as wealth, that you would lend to people and overlook their debts? Did you ever help those in need and show kindness to the less fortunate?" The man replied, "Yes, my Lord, I have done all of those things." Allah said, "We are more deserving of that than you. Forgive my servant." Abu Mas'ud said, "This is what I heard from the Messenger of Allah." Another man was commanded by his family, upon his death, to burn his body, grind it, and scatter it on a windy day. They did as commanded, and his remains were gathered to Allah. Allah asked him, "What made you do this?" The man replied, "O Lord, no one disobeyed You more than I did. I hoped for salvation." Allah said, "Forgive my servant." Abu Mas'ud said, "This is what I heard from the Messenger of Allah."  

أحمد:١٧٠٦٤حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مَالِكٍ عَنْ رِبْعِيِّ بْنِ حِرَاشٍ عَنْ حُذَيْفَةَ

أَنَّ رَجُلًا أَتَى بِهِ اللهُ ﷻ فَقَالَ مَاذَا عَمِلْتَ فِي الدُّنْيَا؟ فَقَالَ لَهُ الرَّجُلُ مَا عَمِلْتُ مِنْ مِثْقَالِ ذَرَّةٍ مِنْ خَيْرٍ أَرْجُوكَ بِهَا فَقَالَهَا لَهُ ثَلَاثًا وَقَالَ فِي الثَّالِثَةِ أَيْ رَبِّ كُنْتَ أَعْطَيْتَنِي فَضْلًا مِنْ مَالٍ فِي الدُّنْيَا فَكُنْتُ أُبَايِعُ النَّاسَ وَكَانَ مِنْ خُلُقِي أَتَجَاوَزُ عَنْهُ وَكُنْتُ أُيَسِّرُ عَلَى الْمُوسِرِ وَأُنْظِرُ الْمُعْسِرَ فَقَالَ ﷻ نَحْنُ أَوْلَى بِذَلِكَ مِنْكَ تَجَاوَزُوا عَنْ عَبْدِي فَغُفِرَ لَهُ فَقَالَ أَبُو مَسْعُودٍ هَكَذَا سَمِعْتُ مِنْ فِي رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَرَجُلٌ آخَرُ أَمَرَ أَهْلَهُ إِذَا مَاتَ أَنْ يُحَرِّقُوهُ ثُمَّيَطْحَنُوهُ ثُمَّ يُذَرُّوهُ فِي يَوْمِ رِيحٍ عَاصِفٍ فَفَعَلُوا ذَلِكَ بِهِ فَجُمِعَ إِلَى رَبِّهِ ﷻ فَقَالَ لَهُ مَا حَمَلَكَ عَلَى هَذَا؟ قَالَ يَا رَبِّ لَمْ يَكُنْ عَبْدٌ أَعْصَى لَكَ مِنِّي فَرَجَوْتُ أَنْ أَنْجُوَ قَالَ اللهُ ﷻ تَجَاوَزُوا عَنْ عَبْدِي فَغُفِرَ لَهُ قَالَ أَبُو مَسْعُودٍ هَكَذَا سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْ فِي رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ
