ذِكْرُ الْبَيَانِ بِأَنَّ الْمَرْءَ عَلَيْهِ إِذَا تَخَلَّى لُزُومُ الْبُكَاءِ عَلَى مَا ارْتَكَبَ مِنَ الْحَوْبَاتِ، وَإِنْ كَانَ بَائِنًا عَنْهَا مُجِدًّا فِي إِتْيَانِ ضِدِّهَا
[Machine] Ibn Umar, tell us about the most amazing thing you saw from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . He remained silent for a while and then said, "One night, Aisha asked me, 'O Ibn Umar, can you let me worship my Lord tonight?' I said, 'By Allah, I love being close to you and I love what makes you happy.' He then got up and performed ablution, and then he stood to pray. Aisha said, 'He kept crying until his tears wetted his garment.' She added, 'Then he cried even more until his tears reached his beard.' She further said, 'He continued crying even more until his tears flowed on the ground.' Bilal came to announce the prayer and when the Prophet saw him, he cried even more." Bilal asked him, "O Messenger of Allah, why do you cry while Allah has forgiven your past and future sins?" The Prophet replied, "Shouldn't I be a grateful servant? Tonight, an Ayah was revealed to me that says, 'Woe unto the person who recites the verse and does not reflect upon it: Verily, in the creation of the heavens and the earth...' The entire verse."
Note: Some interpret the end of the verse as "there are signs for those who reflect" rather than "the entire verse."
ابْنُ عُمَيْرٍ أَخْبِرِينَا بِأَعْجَبِ شَيْءٍ رَأَيْتِهِ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ فَسَكَتَتْ ثُمَّ قَالَتْ لَمَّا كَانَ لَيْلَةٌ مِنَ اللَّيَالِي قَالَ «يَا عَائِشَةُ ذَرِينِي أَتَعَبَّدُ اللَّيْلَةَ لِرَبِّي» قُلْتُ وَاللَّهِ إِنِّي لَأُحِبُّ قُرْبَكَ وَأُحِبُّ مَا سَرَّكَ قَالَتْ فَقَامَ فَتَطَهَّرَ ثُمَّ قَامَ يُصَلِّي قَالَتْ فَلَمْ يَزَلْ يَبْكِي حَتَّى بَلَّ حِجْرَهُ قَالَتْ ثُمَّ بَكَى فَلَمْ يَزَلْ يَبْكِي حَتَّى بَلَّ لِحْيَتَهُ قَالَتْ ثُمَّ بَكَى فَلَمْ يَزَلْ يَبْكِي حَتَّى بَلَّ الْأَرْضَ فَجَاءَ بِلَالٌ يُؤْذِنُهُ بِالصَّلَاةِ فَلَمَّا رَآهُ يَبْكِي قَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ لِمَ تَبْكِي وَقَدْ غَفَرَ اللَّهُ لَكَ مَا تَقَدَّمَ وَمَا تَأَخَّرَ؟ قَالَ «أَفَلَا أَكُونُ عَبْدًا شَكُورًا لَقَدْ نَزَلَتْ عَلَيَّ اللَّيْلَةَ آيَةٌ وَيْلٌ لِمَنْ قَرَأَهَا وَلَمْ يَتَفَكَّرْ فِيهَا {إِنَّ فِي خَلْقِ السَّمَوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ }» الْآيَةَ كُلَّهَا
