ahmad:21556Abū ʿĀmir > ʿAbd al-Jalīl / Ibn ʿAṭiyyah > Muzāḥim b. Muʿāwiyah al-Ḍabbī > Abū Dhar

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ went out during the winter and the leaves were falling. He took hold of two branches from a tree and said, "This leaf is falling as sins fall from the Muslim servant when he offers Salah, intending the face of Allah."  

أحمد:٢١٥٥٦حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَامِرٍ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْجَلِيلِ يَعْنِي ابْنَ عَطِيَّةَ حَدَّثَنَا مُزَاحِمُ بْنُ مُعَاوِيَةَ الضَّبِّيُّ عَنْ أَبِي ذَرٍّ

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ خَرَجَ زَمَنَ الشِّتَاءِ وَالْوَرَقُ يَتَهَافَتُفَأَخَذَ بِغُصْنَيْنِ مِنْ شَجَرَةٍ قَالَ فَجَعَلَ ذَلِكَ الْوَرَقُ يَتَهَافَتُ قَالَ فَقَالَ يَا أَبَا ذَرٍّ قُلْتُ لَبَّيْكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ قَالَ إِنَّ الْعَبْدَ الْمُسْلِمَ لَيُصَلِّي الصَّلَاةَ يُرِيدُ بِهَا وَجْهَ اللهِ فَتَهَافَتُ عَنْهُ ذُنُوبُهُ كَمَا يَتَهَافَتُ هَذَا الْوَرَقُ عَنْ هَذِهِ الشَّجَرَةِ

"يَا أَبَا ذَرٍّ: إِنَّ الْعَبْدَ الْمُسْلِمَ يُصَلِّي الصَّلاَةَ يُريدُ بِهَا وَجْهَ الله - ﷻ - فَتَهَافَتْ عَنْهُ ذُنُوبُهُ كَمَا تَهَافَتَ هَذَا الْوَرَقُ عَنْ هَذِهِ الشَّجَرَةِ".
