ذِكْرُ كَتْبَةِ اللَّهِ ﷻ جَوَازًا مِنَ النَّارِ لِمَنِ اسْتَجَارَ مِنْهَا فِي عَقِبِ صَلَاةِ الْغَدَاةِ، وَالْمَغْرِبِ سَبْعَ مَرَّاتٍ نَعُوذُ بِاللَّهِ مِنْهَا

[Machine] We sent the Messenger of Allah ﷺ on a secret mission. When we reached the caves, I untethered my horse and raced ahead of my companions. Suddenly, the rocks echoed with a sound, and I said, "Say 'There is no god but Allah' for your safety," and they said it. My companions abandoned me and declared that we were forbidden from taking any spoils of war after they had already been in our hands. When we arrived in the presence of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , we informed him of what had transpired. He called me and praised my actions, saying, "Indeed, Allah has decreed for you such and such for each individual amongst them."  

ابن حبّان:٢٠٢٢أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو يَعْلَى قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا دَاوُدُ بْنُ رُشَيْدٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ حَسَّانَ الْكِنَانِيِّ عَنْ مُسْلِمِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ التَّمِيمِيِّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ

بَعَثَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فِي سَرِيَّةٍ فَلَمَّا بَلَغْنَا الْمُغَارَ اسْتَحْثَثْتُ فَرَسِي فَسَبَقْتُ أَصْحَابِي فَتَلَقَّانِي الْحَيُّ بِالرَّنِينِ فَقُلْتُ قُولُوا لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ تُحَرَّزُوا فَقَالُوهَا فَلَامَنِي أَصْحَابِي وَقَالُوا حُرِمْنَا الْغَنِيمَةَ بَعْدَ أَنْ رُدَّتْ بِأَيْدِينَا فَلَمَّا قَدِمْنَا عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَخْبَرُوهُ بِمَا صَنَعْتُ فَدَعَانِي فَحَسَّنَ لِي مَا صَنَعْتُ وَقَالَ «أَمَا إِنَّ اللَّهَ قَدْ كَتَبَ لَكَ بِكُلِّ إِنْسَانٍ مِنْهُمْ كَذَا وَكَذَا»

A similar tradition (to No. 5061) has been transmitted by Muslim ibn al-Harith ibn Muslim at-Tamimi on the authority of his father from the Prophet ﷺ through a different chain of narrators, up to "protection from it". But this version says: "before speaking to anyone". In this version Ali ibn Sahl said that his father told him. Ali and Ibn al-Musaffa said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent us on an expedition. When we reached the place of attack, I galloped my horse and outstripped my companions, and the people of that locality received me with a great noise. I said to them: Say "There is no god but Allah," and you will be protected. They said this. My companions blamed me, saying: You deprived us of the booty. When we came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, they told him what I had done. So he called me, appreciating what I had done, and said: Allah has recorded for you so and so (a reward) for every man of them. AbdurRahman said: I forgot the reward. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ then said: I shall write a will for you after me. He did this and stamped it, and gave it to me, saying....He then mentioned the rest of the tradition to the same effect. Ibn al-Musaffa said: I heard al-Harith ibn Muslim ibn al-Harith at-Tamimi transmitting it from his father.
