[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Indeed, Allah descends to the lowest heaven and says, 'Is there anyone who asks that I may give him? Is there anyone who seeks forgiveness that I may forgive him? Is there anyone who repents that I may accept his repentance until dawn breaks?'"  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِنَّ اللهَ يَنْزِلُ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ الدُّنْيَا فَيَقُولُ هَلْ مِنْ سَائِلٍ يُعْطَى هَلْ مِنْ مُسْتَغْفِرٍ يَسْتَغْفِرُ هَلْ مِنْ تَائِبٍ يُتَابُ عَلَيْهِ حَتَّى يَنْشَقَّ الْفَجْرُ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "When one-third of the night has passed, Allah descends to the lowest heaven and remains there until dawn. He says, 'Is there anyone who calls upon Me, that I may answer him? Is there anyone who seeks My forgiveness, that I may forgive him? Is there anyone who is in need, that I may provide for him?'"  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِذَا ذَهَبَ ثُلُثُ اللَّيْلِ الْأَوَّلُ هَبَطَ اللهُ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ الدُّنْيَا فَلَا يَزَالُ بِهَا حَتَّى يَطْلُعَ الْفَجْرُ يَقُولُ قَائِلٌ أَلَا مِنْ دَاعٍ فَيُسْتَجَابُ لَهُ أَلَا مِنْ مَرِيضٍ يَسْتَشْفِي فَيُشْفَى أَلَا مِنْ مُذْنِبٍ يَسْتَغْفِرُ فَيُغْفَرُ لَهُ  

[Machine] "Indeed, the Prophet ﷺ said: 'Allah descends during the last third of the night and says, 'Whoever supplicates to Me, I will respond to him; whoever asks Me, I will give him; whoever seeks forgiveness from Me, I will forgive him.' This continues until the break of dawn.'"  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ يَنْزِلُ اللهُ لِشَطْرِ اللَّيْلِ فَيَقُولُ مَنْ يَدْعُونِي فَأَسْتَجِيبَ لَهُ مِنْ يَسْأَلُنِي فَأُعْطِيَهِ مَنْ يَسْتَغْفِرُنِي فَأَغْفِرَ لَهُ فَلَا يَزَالُ كَذَالِكَ حَتَّى تُرَجَّلَ الشَّمْسُ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Verily, Allah, the Blessed and Exalted, descends to the lowest heaven every night and says, 'Is there anyone seeking forgiveness so that I may forgive them? Is there anyone in need so that I may provide for them?'"  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ إِنَّ اللهَ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى يَنْزِلُ كُلَّ لَيْلَةٍ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ الدُّنْيَا فَيَقُولُ هَلْ مِنْ سَائِلٍ فَأُعْطِيَهِ هَلْ مِنْ مُسْتَغْفِرٍ فَأَغْفِرَ لَهُ  

The Prophet ﷺ said: “Al-hamdu lillahi nahmadhu wa nastaʿinuhu wa naʿudhu billahi min shururi anfusina wa min sayi'ati aʿmalina, man yahdihillahu fala mudilla lahu, wa man yudlil fala hadiya lahu. Wa ashadu an la ilaha illallahu wahduhu la sharika lahu, wa anna Muhammadan ʿabduhu wa rasuluhu. Amma baʿd. (Praise is to Allah, we praise Him and we seek His help. We seek refuge with Allah from the evil of our own souls and from our bad deeds, Whomsoever Allah guides will never be led astray; and whomsoever is led astray, no one can guide. I bear witness that none has the right to be worshiped but Allah, alone with no partner or associate, and that Muhammad is His slave and His Messenger. To proceed).” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 1893)   

عَلَّمَنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ التَّشَهُّدَ فِي الْحَاجَةِ «إِنَّ الْحَمْدَ لِلَّهِ نَسْتَعِينُهُ وَنَسْتَغْفِرَهُ وَنَعُوذُ بِاللهِ مِنْ شُرُورِ أَنْفُسِنَا مَنْ يَهْدِ اللهُ فَلَا مُضِلَّ لَهُ وَمَنْ يُضْلِلْ فَلَا هَادِيَ لَهُ وَأَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ وَأَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا عَبْدُهُ وَرَسُولُهُ» وَيَقْرَأُ ثَلَاثَ آيَاتٍ تَابَعَهُ الْمَسْعُودِيُّ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ taught us two sermons, the sermon of prayer and the sermon of necessity. As for the sermon of necessity, it begins with "Alhamdulillah, we seek His help and seek His forgiveness. We seek refuge in Allah from the evils of ourselves and from our bad deeds. Whoever Allah guides, no one can misguide him, and whoever He misguides, no one can guide him. I bear witness that there is no god but Allah and that Muhammad is His servant and Messenger." Zuhair stood and narrated to us, Amr bin Ali informed us, Khalaf bin Tamim narrated to us from Zuhair, who narrated to us from Abu Ishaq, who narrated from Abu Al-Ahwas, who narrated from Abdullah, who said: "When one of you wants to give a sermon of necessity, let him begin by saying 'Alhamdulillah, we seek His help, similar to it' and 'He is One, with no partner.' Shu'bah contradicted them and reported from Abu Ishaq, who narrated from Abu Ubaidah, who narrated from Abdullah."  

عَلَّمَنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ خُطْبَتَيْنِ خُطْبَةَ الصَّلَاةِ وَخُطْبَةَ الْحَاجَةِ أَمَّا خُطْبَةُ الْحَاجَةِ «الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ نَسْتَعِينُهُ وَنَسْتَغْفِرَهُ وَنَعُوذُ بِاللهِ مِنْ شُرُورِ أَنْفُسِنَا مِنْ يَهْدِ اللهُ فَلَا مُضِلَّ لَهُ وَمَنْ يُضْلِلْ فَلَا هَادِيَ لَهُ وَأَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ وَأَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا عَبْدُهُ وَرَسُولُهُ» [183] وَقَفَهَ زُهَيْرٌ 10251 أَخْبَرَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عَلِيٍّ حَدَّثَنَا خَلَفُ بْنُ تَمِيمٍ عَنْ زُهَيْرٍ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو إِسْحَاقَ عَنْ أَبِي الْأَحْوَصِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ قَالَ إِذَا أَرَادَ أَحَدُكُمْ أَنْ يَخْطُبَ بِخُطْبَةِ الْحَاجَةِ فَلْيَبْدَأْ فَلْيَقُلْ إِنَّ الْحَمْدَ لِلَّهِ نَسْتَعِينُهُ مِثْلَهُ سَوَاءٌ وَقَالَ «وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ» خَالَفَهُمَا شُعْبَةُ فَرَوَى عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ عَنْ أَبِي عُبَيْدَةَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ said: He taught us the sermon of necessity, saying, "All praise is due to Allah, the same way and more. Then he recited three verses: 'O you who have believed, fear Allah as He should be feared' (Al 'Imran 102), 'O mankind, fear your Lord, who created you from one soul' (An-Nisa' 1), and 'O you who have believed, fear Allah and speak words of appropriate justice' (Al-Ahzab 70). Then he mentioned his need.  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ عَلَّمَنَا خُطْبَةَ الْحَاجَةِ «الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ» مِثْلَهُ سَوَاءٌ وَزَادَ فِيهِ يَقْرَأُ ثَلَاثَ آيَاتٍ {يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا اتَّقُوا اللهَ حَقَّ تُقَاتِهِ} [آل عمران 102] و {يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ اتَّقُوا رَبَّكُمُ الَّذِي خَلْقَكُمْ مِنْ نَفْسٍ وَاحِدَةٍ} [النساء 1] و {يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا اتَّقُوا اللهَ وَقُولُوا قَوْلًا سَدِيدًا} [الأحزاب 70] ثُمَّ يَذْكُرُ حَاجَتَهُ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to teach us the speech of necessity, saying, "Indeed, all praise is due to Allah. We praise Him, seek His help, and seek refuge in Allah from the evil of ourselves. Whoever Allah guides, there is no misguidance for him, and whoever He misguides, there is no guidance for him. And I bear witness that there is no deity except Allah, alone, without any partners, and I bear witness that Muhammad is His slave and messenger." Abu Ubaydah said, "I heard Abu Musa saying, 'The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to say, "If you want, your sermon can include any of these verses from the Quran: 'Fear Allah as He deserves to be feared and do not die except as Muslims.' (Surah Al-Imran, 3:102) 'Fear Allah, in whom you ask each other for your rights, and fear the wombs (lest you sever its ties). Verily, Allah is ever watching over you.' (Surah An-Nisa', 4:1) 'Fear Allah and speak words of appropriate justice.' (Surah Al-Ahzab, 33:70) until 'great success.' (Surah An-Nisa’, 4:73).' Then he would speak about his need. Israel combined both of these (verses)."  

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يُعَلِّمُنَا خُطْبَةَ الْحَاجَةِ «إِنَّ الْحَمْدَ لِلَّهِ نَحْمَدُهُ وَنَسْتَعِينُهُ وَنَعُوذُ بِاللهِ مِنْ شُرُورِ أَنْفُسِنَا مَنْ يَهْدِ اللهُ فَلَا مُضِلَّ لَهُ وَمَنْ يُضْلِلْ فَلَا هَادِيَ لَهُ وَأَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ وَأَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا عَبْدُهُ وَرَسُولُهُ» [184] قَالَ أَبُو عُبَيْدَةَ وَسَمِعْتُ أَبَا مُوسَى يَقُولُ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ فَإِنْ شِئْتَ أَنْ تَصِلَ خُطْبَتَكَ بآيٍ مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ فَقُلِ {اتَّقُوا اللهَ حَقَّ تُقَاتِهِ وَلَا تَمُوتُنَّ إِلَّا وَأَنْتُمْ مُسْلِمُونَ} [آل عمران 102] {وَاتَّقُوا اللهَ الَّذِي تَسَّاءَلُونَ بِهِ وَالْأَرْحَامَ إنَّ اللهَ كَانَ عَلَيْكُمْ رَقِيبًا} [النساء 1] {اتَّقُوا اللهَ وَقُولُوا قَوْلًا سَدِيدًا} [الأحزاب 70] إِلَى {فَوْزًا عَظِيمًا} [النساء 73] أَمَّا بَعْدُ ثُمَّ تَكَلَّمْ بِحَاجِتِكَ جَمَعَهُمَا إِسْرَائِيلُ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ taught us the sermon of need, "Praise be to Allah, we praise Him and seek His help." Then he mentioned something similar to it and said, Abdullah said, "Then complete your sermon with three verses and narrate the Hadith."  

عَلَّمَنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ خُطْبَةَ الْحَاجَةِ «الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ نَحْمَدُهُ وَنَسْتَعِينُهُ» ثُمَّ ذَكَرَ مِثْلَهُ سَوَاءٌ وَقَالَ قَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ ثُمَّ تَصِلُ خُطْبَتَكَ بِثَلَاثِ آيَاتٍ وَسَاقَ الْحَدِيثَ  

[Machine] Narrated by the Prophet ﷺ : "Every task that is not commenced with the praise of Allah is incomplete." [185] 10256 Mahmood bin Khalid informed me, who reported that Al-Walid informed us, who reported that Sa'id bin Abd al-Aziz informed him from Az-Zuhri, who reported a similar statement. 10257 Qutaybah bin Sa'id informed us, who reported from Al-Laith, who reported from 'Uqail, who reported from Ibn Shihab, who reported as a Marasil (i.e., a person who is not named).  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ «كُلُّ أَمْرٍ ذِي بَالٍ لَا يُبْدَأُ فِيهِ بِحَمْدِ اللهِ أَقْطَعُ» [185] 10256 أَخْبَرَنِي مَحْمُودُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ حَدَّثَنَا الْوَلِيدُ حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ رَفَعَهُ مِثْلَهُ 10257 أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ عَنْ عُقَيْلٍ عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ مُرْسَلٌ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Every statement that does not begin with the mention of Allah is void."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «كُلُّ كَلَامٍ لَا يُبْدَأُ فِي أَوَّلِهِ بِذِكْرِ اللهِ فَهُوَ أَبْتَرُ»  

The Prophet ﷺ used to teach us the way of doing Istikhara (Istikhara means to ask Allah to guide one to the right sort of action concerning any job or a deed), in all matters as he taught us the Suras of the Qur'an. He said, "If anyone of you thinks of doing any job he should offer a two rakʿat prayer other than the compulsory ones and say (after the prayer): -- 'Allahumma inni astakhiruka bi'ilmika, Wa astaqdiruka bi-qudratika, Wa as'alaka min fadlika Al-ʿazlm Fa-innaka taqdiru Wala aqdiru, Wa ta'lamu Wala a'lamu, Wa anta 'allamu l-ghuyub. Allahumma, in kunta ta'lam anna hadha-lamra Khairun li fi dini wa ma'ashi wa'aqibati ʿAmri (or 'ajili ʿAmri wa'ajilihi) Faqdirhu wa yas-sirhu li thumma barik li Fihi, Wa in kunta ta'lamu anna hadha-lamra shar-run li fi dini wa ma'ashi wa'aqibati ʿAmri (or fi'ajili ʿAmri wa ajilihi) Fasrifhu anni was-rifni anhu. Waqdir li al-khaira haithu kana Thumma ardini bihi.' (O Allah! I ask guidance from Your knowledge, And Power from Your Might and I ask for Your great blessings. You are capable and I am not. You know and I do not and You know the unseen. O Allah! If You know that this job is good for my religion and my subsistence and in my Hereafter--(or said: If it is better for my present and later needs)--Then You ordain it for me and make it easy for me to get, And then bless me in it, and if You know that this job is harmful to me In my religion and subsistence and in the Hereafter--(or said: If it is worse for my present and later needs)--Then keep it away from me and let me be away from it. And ordain for me whatever is good for me, And make me satisfied with it). The Prophet ﷺ added that then the person should name (mention) his need. (Using translation from Bukhārī 1166)  

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يُعَلِّمُنَا الِاسْتِخَارَةَ فِي الْأُمُورِ كُلِّهَا كَمَا يُعَلِّمُنَا السُّورَةَ مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ يَقُولَ إِذَا هَمَّ أَحَدُكُمْ بِالْأَمْرِ فَلْيَرْكَعْ رَكْعَتَيْنِ مِنْ غَيْرِ الْفَرِيضَةِ ثُمَّ لِيَقُلْ اللهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْتَخِيرُكَ بِعِلْمِكَ وَأَسْتَقْدِرُكَ بِقُدْرَتِكَ وَأَسْأَلُكَ مِنْ فَضْلِكَ الْعَظِيمِ فَإِنَّكَ تَقْدِرُ وَلَا أَقْدِرُ وَتَعْلَمُ وَلَا أَعْلَمُ وَأَنْتَ عَلَّامُ الْغُيُوبِ اللهُمَّ إِنْ كُنْتَ تَعْلَمُ أَنَّ هَذَا الْأَمْرَ خَيْرٌ لِي فِي دِينِي وَمَعَاشِي وَعَاقِبَةِ أَمْرِي أَوْ قَالَ فِي عَاجِلِ أَمْرِي وَآجِلِهِ فَاقْدُرْهُ لِي وَيَسِّرْهُ لِي ثُمَّ بَارِكْ لِي فِيهِ وَإِنْ كُنْتَ تَعْلَمُ أَنَّ هَذَا الْأَمْرَ شَرٌّ لِي فِي دِينِي وَمَعَاشِي وَعَاقِبَةِ أَمْرِي أَوْ قَالَ فِي عَاجِلِ أَمْرِي وَآجِلِهِ فَاصْرِفْهُ عَنِّي وَاصْرِفْنِي عَنْهُ وَاقْدُرْ لِيَ الْخَيْرَ حَيْثُ كُنْتُ ثُمَّ أَرْضِنِي بِقَضَائِكَ  

قَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ سَرْجِسٍ كَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ إِذَا سَافَرَ يَقُولُ «اللهُمَّ أَنْتَ الصَّاحِبُ فِي السَّفَرِ وَالْخَلِيفَةُ فِي الْأَهْلِ اللهُمَّ اصْحَبْنَا فِي سَفَرِنَا وَاخْلُفْنَا فِي أَهْلِنَا اللهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ وَعْثَاءِ السَّفَرِ وَكَآبَةِ الْمُنْقَلَبِ وَالْحَوْرِ بَعْدَ الْكَوْرِ وَدَعْوَةِ الْمَظْلُومِ وَسُوءِ الْمَنْظَرِ فِي الْأَهْلِ وَالْمَالِ»  

When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ proceeded on journey, he would say: O Allah, Thou art the Companion in the journey, and the One Who looks after the family; O Allah, I seek refuge in Thee from the difficulty of travelling, finding harm when I return, and unhappiness in what I see coming to my family and property. O Allah, make the length of his journey short for us, and the journey easy for us. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 2598)  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَقُولُ إِذَا سَافَرَ «اللهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ وَعْثَاءِ السَّفَرِ وَكَآبَةِ الْمُنْقَلَبِ وَسُوءِ الْمَنْظَرِ فِي الْأَهْلِ وَالْمَالِ اللهُمَّ أَنْتَ الصَّاحِبُ فِي السَّفَرِ وَالْخَلِيفَةُ فِي الْأَهْلِ وَالْمَالِ اللهُمَّ اطْوِ لَنَا الْأَرْضَ وَهَوِّنْ عَلَيْنَا السَّفَرَ»  

[Machine] "When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ would leave for a journey, he would say, 'O Allah, grant us a safe journey that brings us the best forgiveness and pleasure from You. O Allah, in Your hand is all good, and You are able to do all things. O Allah, You are our companion on the journey and the guardian of our family. O Allah, make the journey easy for us and shorten the distance. O Allah, I seek refuge in You from the difficulties of travel and the change in conditions.'"  

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِذَا خَرَجَ إِلَى سَفَرٍ قَالَ «اللهُمَّ بَلَاغًا يَبْلُغُ خَيْرًا مَغْفِرَةً مِنْكَ وَرِضْوَانًا بِيَدِكَ الْخَيْرُ إِنَّكَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ اللهُمَّ أَنْتَ الصَّاحِبُ فِي السَّفَرِ وَالْخَلِيفَةُ فِي الْأَهْلِ اللهُمَّ هَوِّنْ عَلَيْنَا السَّفَرَ وَاطْوِ لَنَا الْأَرْضَ اللهُمَّ أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ وَعْثَاءِ السَّفَرِ وَكَآبَةِ الْمُنْقَلَبِ»  

[Machine] All praise is due to Allah who has subjected this for us and we were not capable of subjecting it. And to our Lord we will return. Then he glorified three times and praised three times. Then he said, "There is no deity except Allah, you are exalted. Indeed, I have wronged myself, so forgive me my sins. Indeed, He does not forgive sins except You." He said, "The Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , said the same thing one day, then he laughed. So I said, 'What made you laugh?' He said, 'Our Lord, blessed and exalted, marvels at His servant's saying: 'You are exalted. Indeed, I have wronged myself, so forgive my sins. Indeed, He does not forgive sins except You.'" He said, "My servant has known that he has a Lord who forgives sins."  

الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ {الَّذِي سَخَّرَ لَنَا هَذَا وَمَا كُنَّا لَهُ مُقْرِنِينَ وَإِنَّا إِلَى رَبِّنَا لَمُنْقَلِبُونَ} [الزخرف 14] ثُمَّ كَبَّرَ ثَلَاثًا وَحَمِدَ ثَلَاثًا ثُمَّ قَالَ «لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ سُبْحَانَكَ إِنِّي ظَلَمْتُ نَفْسِي فَاغْفِرْ لِي ذُنُوبِي إِنَّهُ لَا يَغْفِرُ الذُّنُوبَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ» فَقَالَ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ يَوْمًا مِثْلَ مَا قُلْتُ ثُمَّ اسْتَضْحَكَ فَقُلْتُ مِمَّ ضَحِكْتَ؟ قَالَ يَعْجَبُ رَبُّنَا تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى مِنْ قَوْلِ عَبْدِهِ «سُبْحَانَكَ إِنِّي ظَلَمْتُ نَفْسِي فَاغْفِرْ ذُنُوبِي إِنَّهُ لَا يَغْفِرُ الذُّنُوبَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ» قَالَ «عَلِمَ عَبْدِي أَنَّ لَهُ رَبًّا يَغْفِرُ الذُّنُوبَ»  

“When the Prophet ﷺ would travel, and he would mount his riding camel, he would gesture with his finger” – and Shuʿbah stretched out his finger – “and say: ‘O Allah You are the companion on the journey, and the caretaker for the family, O Allah, accompany us with Your protection, and return us in security, O Allah, I seek refuge in You from the difficulties of the journey, and from returning in great sadness (Allāhumma antaṣ-ṣāḥibu fis safari wal-khalīfatu fil-ahli, Allāhumma aṣḥabnā bi nuṣḥika waqlibnā bi-dhimmah, Allāhummazwi lanal-arḍa wa hawwin ʿalainas-safar, Allāhumma innī a’ūdhu bika min waʿthā’is-safari wa ka’ābatil-munqalab).’” (Using translation from Tirmidhī 3438)  

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِذَا سَافَرَ فَرَكِبَ رَاحِلَتَهُ قَالَ بِإِصْبُعِهِ وَمَدَّ شُعْبَةُ بِإِصْبُعِهِ فَقَالَ «اللهُمَّ أَنْتَ الصَّاحِبُ فِي السَّفَرِ وَالْخَلِيفَةُ فِي الْأَهْلِ اللهُمَّ زَوِّ لَنَا الْأَرْضَ وَهَوِّنْ عَلَيْنَا السَّفَرَ اللهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ وَعْثَاءِ السَّفَرِ وَكَآبَةِ الْمُنْقَلَبِ»  

[Machine] His father, the Prophet ﷺ, said: "I heard my father say that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'On the top of every camel there is a devil, so when you ride it, say the name of Allah and do not neglect your needs.'" Abu 'Abd al-Rahman, Usamah ibn Zaid, said, "He is not strong in hadith."  

وَقَدْ صَحِبَ أَبُوهُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبِي يَقُولُ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «عَلَى ذِرْوَةِ كُلِّ بَعِيرٍ شَيْطَانٌ فَإِذَا رَكِبْتُمُوهَا فَسَمُّوا وَلَا تَقْصُرُوا عَنْ حَاجَتِكُمْ» قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ أُسَامَةُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ لَيْسَ بِالْقَوِيِّ فِي الْحَدِيثِ  

[Machine] A man came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ wanting to travel. He said, "O Messenger of Allah, advise me?" He said, "I advise you to have fear of Allah and to remember Allah in every high place." When he departed, he said, "May Allah make the earth spacious for you and make your journey easy."  

أَنَّ رَجُلًا جَاءَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ يُرِيدُ سَفَرًا فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَوْصِنِي؟ قَالَ «أُوصِيكَ بِتَقْوَى اللهِ وَاذْكُرِ اللهَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَرَفٍ» فَلَمَّا وَلَّى قَالَ «زَوَى اللهُ لَكَ الْأَرْضَ وَهَوَّنَ عَلَيْكَ السَّفَرَ»  

“When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ would dispatch troops, he would say to the leader: ‘I commend to Allah’s keeping your religious commitment, your dignity and the end of your deeds.’” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 2826)   

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ لِلشَّاخِصِ «أَسْتَوْدِعِ اللهَ دَيْنَكَ وَأَمَانَتَكَ وَخَوَاتِمَ عَمَلِكَ»  

When the Prophet ﷺ wanted to say farewell to an army, he would say: I entrust to Allah your religion, what you are responsible for, and your final deeds. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 2601)   

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِذَا شَيَّعَ جَيْشًا فَبَلَغَ عَقَبَةَ الْوَدَاعِ قَالَ «أَسْتَوْدِعُ اللهَ دِينَكُمْ وَأَمَانَتَكُمْ وَخَوَاتِمَ أَعْمَالِكُمْ»  

[Machine] Should I not teach you, O son of my brother, something that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ taught me to say at the time of farewell? I said, "Yes." He said, "Say, 'I entrust you to the care of Allah, who does not lose His trusts.'"  

أَلَا أُعَلِّمُكَ يَا ابْنَ أَخِي شَيْئًا عَلَّمَنِيهِ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَقَوْلُهُ عِنْدَ الْوَدَاعِ؟ قُلْتُ بَلَى قَالَ قُلْ «أَسْتَوْدِعُكَ اللهَ الَّذِي لَا تَضِيعُ وَدَائِعُهُ»  

[Machine] Just as you are bidding farewell to me as the Prophet ﷺ bid me farewell, he took my hand and shook it, then he said, "I entrust Allah with your debts, trusts, and the outcome of your actions."  

كَمَا أَنْتَ حَتَّى أُوَدِّعَكَ كَمَا وَدَّعَنِي النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَأَخَذَ بِيَدِي فَصَافَحَنِي ثُمَّ قَالَ «أَسْتَوْدِعُ اللهَ دَيْنَكَ وَأَمَانَتَكَ وَخَوَاتِيمَ عَمَلِكَ»  

[Machine] "I bid you farewell as the Messenger of Allah ﷺ bid me farewell. He took my hand, shook it, and said, 'I entrust Allah with your debt, trust, and the final deeds of your actions.'  

أُوَدِّعُكَ كَمَا وَدَّعَنِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَأَخَذَ بِيَدِي فَحَرَّكَهَا وَقَالَ «أَسْتَوْدِعُ اللهَ دَيْنَكَ وَأَمَانَتَكَ وَخَوَاتِمَ عَمَلِكَ»  

[Machine] Regarding the farewell of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ to him, he said, "I entrust Allah with your religion, your trustworthiness, and the last deeds you will perform."  

عَنْ وَدَاعِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ إِيَّاهُ قَالَ «أَسْتَوْدِعُ اللهَ دَيْنَكَ وَأَمَانَتَكَ وَخَوَاتِيمَ عَمَلِكَ»  

[Machine] And he said, "I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say, 'Lokman the wise said, "Indeed, when Allah is entrusted with something, He preserves it, and indeed, I entrust Allah with your debt, integrity, the final outcomes of your deeds, and I send peace upon you."  

وَقَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ قَالَ لُقْمَانُ الْحَكِيمُ «إِنَّ اللهَ إِذَا اسْتُودِعَ شَيْئًا حَفِظَهُ وَإِنِّي أَسْتَوْدِعُ اللهَ دَيْنَكَ وَأَمَانَتَكَ وَخَوَاتِمَ عَمَلِكَ وَأَقْرَأُ عَلَيْكَ السَّلَامُ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Luqman the wise used to say, 'Verily, when Allah is entrusted with something, He protects it.'"  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ لُقْمَانُ الْحَكِيمُ يَقُولُ إِنَّ اللهَ إِذَا اسْتُودِعْ شَيْئًا حَفِظَهُ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ informed us that Luqman Al-Hakeem used to say, "Indeed, when Allah takes something into His trust, He protects it."  

أَخْبَرَنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَنَّ لُقْمَانَ الْحَكِيمَ كَانَ يَقُولُ إِنَّ اللهَ إِذَا اسْتُودِعَ شَيْئًا حَفِظَهُ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ informed us that Luqman the wise said: "Verily, when Allah is entrusted with something, He preserves it. And I entrust Allah with your religion, your trusts, and the outcomes of your deeds."  

إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ حَدَّثَنَا أَنَّ لُقْمَانَ الْحَكِيمَ قَالَ إِنَّ اللهَ إِذَا اسْتُودِعَ شَيْئًا حَفِظَهُ وَإِنِّي أَسْتَوْدِعُ اللهَ دِينَكُمْ وَأَمَانَاتِكُمْ وَخَوَاتِيمَ أَعْمَالِكُمْ  

[Machine] "He said, 'I do not have anything to give you, but I entrust to Allah your religion, your trusts, the seals of your deeds, and I recite upon you peace.'" [193] 10278 Ahmad bin Sulaiman informed us, Ubaidullah informed us, Isra'il narrated to us from Abu Sinan from Abu Ghalib who said: 'I was with Ibn 'Umar, along with Qaz'ah. When we left his presence, he walked with us and then said: 'I do not have anything to give you, but I entrust to Allah.' And he narrated the Hadith."  

«إِنَّهُ لَيْسَ عِنْدِي مَا أُعْطِيكُمَا وَلَكِنْ أَسْتَوْدِعُ اللهَ دِينَكُمَا وَأَمَانَاتِكُمَا وَخَوَاتِيمَ أَعْمَالِكُمَا وَأَقْرَأُ عَلَيْكُمَا السَّلَامُ» [193] 10278 أَخْبَرَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ أَخْبَرَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللهِ أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْرَائِيلُ عَنْ أَبِي سِنَانٍ عَنْ أَبِي غَالِبٍ قَالَ كُنْتُ عِنْدَ ابْنِ عُمَرَ أَنَا وَقَزْعَةُ فَلَمَّا خَرَجْنَا مِنْ عِنْدِهِ مَشَى مَعَنَا ثُمَّ قَالَ مَا عِنْدِي مَا أُعْطِيكُمْ وَلَكِنْ أَسْتَوْدِعُ اللهَ وَسَاقَ الْحَدِيثَ  

Qaza’ah said Ibn ‘Umar told me “Come, I see off you as the Apostle of Allaah ﷺ saw me off. I entrust to Allaah your religion what you are responsible for and your final deeds.” (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 2600)   

عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ انْتَظِرْ حَتَّى أُوَدِّعَكَ كَمَا كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يُوَدِّعُنَا «أَسْتَوْدِعُ اللهَ دَيْنِكَ وَأَمَانَتَكَ وَخَوَاتِمَ عَمَلِكَ»  

[Machine] "Lower your head until I bid you farewell with what the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to bid us farewell with, and he would say, 'I entrust to Allah your religion, your trustworthiness, and the end of your actions.'"  

ادْنُهْ حَتَّى أُوَدِّعَكَ بِمَا كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يُوَدِّعُنَا ثُمَّ يَقُولُ «أَسْتَوْدِعُ اللهَ دِينَكَ وَأَمَانَتَكَ وَخَوَاتِمَ عَمَلِكَ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Is not this (fulfilling my mission) sufficient for me?" I said, "O Messenger of Allah, I am a man who cannot ride horses." So, he struck my chest and said, "O Allah, make him steadfast and guide him." I then went out with fifty men from my people and we came upon them and burned them.  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «أَلَا تَكْفِينِي ذَا الْخَلَصَةِ؟» قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنِّي رَجُلٌ لَا أَثْبُتُ عَلَى الْخَيْلِ فَضَرَبَ فِي صَدْرِي وَقَالَ «اللهُمَّ ثَبِّتْهُ وَاجْعَلْهُ هَادِيًا مَهْدِيًّا» فَخَرَجْتُ فِي خَمْسِينَ مِنْ قَوْمِي فَأَتَيْنَاهَا فَأَحْرَقْنَاهَا  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was on a journey, and he had a young boy with him called Anjasha who would lead the people. The Prophet ﷺ said, "Woe to you, O Anjasha, take it easy with the reins."  

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فِي مَسِيرٍ لَهُ وَغُلَامٌ لَهُ يُقَالُ لَهُ أَنْجَشَةُ يَحْدُو بِالْقَوْمِ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «وَيْحَكَ يَا أَنْجَشَةُ رُوَيْدًا سَوْقَكَ بِالْقَوَارِيرِ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ came to Anjasha while he was driving with his wives, and he said, "Drive slowly and do not break the jars."  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ أَتَى عَلَى أَنْجَشَةَ وَهُوَ يَسُوقُ بِنِسَائِهِ فَقَالَ «رُوَيْدَكَ سَوْقَكَ وَلَا تَكْسِرِ الْقَوَارِيرَ»  

Anjasha, drive slowly; do not break the vessels of glass, meaning the weak women. (Using translation from Muslim 2323e)  

كَانَ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ حَادٍ حَسَنُ الصَّوْتِ فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «رُوَيْدَكَ يَا أَنْجَشَةُ لَا تُكْسَرُ الْقَوَارِيرُ» يَعْنِي ضَعَفَةَ النِّسَاءِ  

[Machine] I heard Anas say that while the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was walking, a man was urging his camel to hurry along with the women of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "O Anjasha, be gentle with the vessels."  

سَمِعْتُ أَنَسًا يَقُولُ بَيْنَمَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَسِيرُ وَحَادٍ يَحْدُو بِنِسَاءِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَرَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «يَا أَنْجَشَةُ ارْفُقْ بِالْقَوَارِيرِ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was driving the mothers of the believers, "Ruwaidah, O Anjasha, drive with your bottles."  

رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَهُوَ يَسُوقُ بِأُمَّهَاتِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ «رُوَيْدَكَ يَا أَنْجَشَةُ سَوْقَكَ بِالْقَوَارِيرِ»  

[Machine] She used to be with the wives of the Prophet ﷺ and a driver would drive them. So the Prophet ﷺ said, "Drive them gently, O Anjashah, for they are carrying fragile vessels."  

أَنَّهَا كَانَتْ مَعَ نِسَاءِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَسَوَّاقٌ يَسُوقُ بِهِنَّ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «رُوَيْدًا يَا أَنْجَشَةُ سَوْقَكَ بِالْقَوَارِيرِ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ spent the night with us and did not wake up for the Fajr prayer until the sun had risen.  

«كَانَ مَعَنَا لَيْلَةَ نَامَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَنْ صَلَاةِ الصُّبْحِ حَتَّى طَلَعَتِ الشَّمْسُ حَادِيَانِ»  

[Machine] He was with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ on a journey, so he said to him, "O Ibn Rawaha, get off and move the luggage." He said, "O Messenger of Allah, I have left that behind." So Umar said, "Listen and obey." So he threw himself and said, "O Allah, if it weren't for You, we would not have been guided, given charity, or prayed, so send down tranquility upon us and make our feet firm if we encounter [the enemy]."  

أَنَّهُ كَانَ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فِي مَسِيرٍ لَهُ فَقَالَ لَهُ «يَا ابْنَ رَوَاحَةَ انْزِلْ فَحَرِّكِ الرِّكَابَ» قَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ قَدْ تَرَكْتُ ذَاكَ فَقَالَ عُمَرُ اسْمَعْ وَأَطِعْ قَالَ فَرَمَى بِنَفْسِهِ وَقَالَ [البحر الرجز] اللهُمَّ لَوْلَا أَنْتَ مَا اهْتَدَيْنَا وَمَا تَصَدَّقْنَا وَمَا صَلَّيْنَا فَأَنْزِلَنَّ سَكِينَةً عَلَيْنَا وَثَبِّتِ الْأَقْدَامَ إِنْ لَاقَيْنَا  

[Machine] I saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ moving the soil of the trench until the soil covered his chest hair and he was reciting the poem of Abd Allah bin Rawahah (Bahar Rajz): "O Allah, if it were not for You, we would not have been guided, nor given in charity, nor prayed. So send tranquility upon us and keep our feet steady if we meet [the enemy]. Indeed, the first [enemies] have transgressed against us and if they intend to cause discord, we will confront them with it." Abu Abdullah Al-Rahman said, and it has been narrated from Salamah bin Al-Akwa that this 'rajz' (poem) was for his brother.  

رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَنْقُلُ تُرَابَ الْخَنْدَقِ حَتَّى وَارَى التُّرَابُ شَعْرَ صَدْرِهِ وَهُوَ يَرْتَجِزُ كَلِمَةَ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ رَوَاحَةَ [البحر الرجز] اللهُمَّ لَوْلَا أَنْتَ مَا اهْتَدَيْنَا وَلَا تَصَدَّقْنَا وَلَا صَلَّيْنَا فَأَنْزِلِنَّ سَكِينَةً عَلَيْنَا وَثَبِّتِ الْأَقْدَامَ إِنْ لَاقَيْنَا إِنَّ الْأُولَى بَغَوْا عَلَيْنَا وَإِنْ أَرَادُوا فِتْنَةً أَبَيْنَا يَمُدُّ بِهَا صَوْتَهُ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ وَقَدْ رُوِيَ عَنْ سَلَمَةَ بْنِ الْأَكْوَعِ أَنَّ هَذَا الرَّجَزَ لِأَخِيهِ  

On the day of the Battle of Khaibar my brother fought a fierce fight by the side of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. His sword rebounded and killed him. The Companions of the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon hill) talked about his death and doubted (whether it was martyrdom). (They said): (He is) a man killed by his own weapon, and expressed doubt about his affair. Salama said: When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ returned from Khaibar, I said: Messenger of Allah, permit me that I may recite to you some rajaz verses. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ permitted him. 'Umar b. Khattab said: I know what you will recite. I recited: By God, if God had guided us not, We would hive neither been guided aright nor practised charity, Nor offered prayers. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: What you have said is true, 'I (continued): And descend on us peace and tranquillity And keep us steadfast if we encounter (with our enemies) And the polytheists have rebelled against us. When I finished my rajaz, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Who composed these verses? I said: They were composed by my brother. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: May God show mercy to him! I said: By God, some people are reluctant to invoke God's mercy on him (because) they say he is a man who died by his own sword. (Hearing this) the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: He died as God's devotee and warrior. Ibn Shihab has said: I asked one of the sons of Salama (b. Akwa') about (the death of 'Amir). He related to me a similar tradition except that he said: When I said some people were reluctant invoke God's blessings on him, the Messenger of Allah (may peace be, upon him said: They lied. ('Amir) died as God's devotee and warrior (in the cause of Allah). For him there is a double reward, and he pointed out this by putting his two fingers together. (Using translation from Muslim 1802b)   

لَمَّا كَانَ يَوْمُ خَيْبَرَ قَاتَلَ أَخِي قِتَالًا شَدِيدًا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَارْتَدَّ عَلَيْهِ سَيْفُهُ فَقَتَلَهُ فَقَالَ أَصْحَابُ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فِي ذَلِكَ وَشَكُّوا فِيهِ رَجُلٌ مَاتَ بِسِلَاحِهِ قَالَ سَلَمَةُ فَقَفَلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مِنْ خَيْبَرَ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَتَأْذَنُ لِي أَنْ أَرْجُزَ بِكَ فَأَذِنَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ لَهُ عُمَرُ اعْلَمْ مَا تَقُولُ فَقُلْتُ [البحر الرجز] وَاللهِ لَوْلَا اللهُ مَا اهْتَدَيْنَا وَلَا تَصَدَّقْنَا وَلَا صَلَّيْنَا فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «صَدَقْتَ» فَأَنْزِلَنْ سَكِينَةً عَلَيْنَا وَثَبِّتِ الْأَقْدَامَ إِنْ لَاقَيْنَا وَالْمُشْرِكُونَ قَدْ بَغَوْا عَلَيْنَا فَلَمَّا قَضَيْتُ رَجَزِي قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «مَنْ قَالَ هَذَا؟» قُلْتُ أَخِي فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «يَرْحَمُهُ اللهُ» قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّ نَاسًا لَيَهَابُونَ الصَّلَاةَ عَلَيْهِ يَقُولُونَ رَجُلٌ مَاتَ بِسِلَاحِهِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «مَاتَ جَاهِدًا مُجَاهِدًا» قَالَ ابْنُ شِهَابٍ ثُمَّ سَأَلْتُ ابْنًا لِسَلَمَةَ بْنِ الْأَكْوَعِ فَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ أَبِيهِ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ غَيْرَ أَنَّهُ قَالَ حِينَ قُلْتُ إِنَّ نَاسًا يَهَابُونَ الصَّلَاةَ عَلَيْهِ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «كَذَبُوا مَاتَ جَاهِدًا مُجَاهِدًا فَلَهُ أَجْرُهُ مَرَّتَيْنِ» وَأَشَارَ بِإِصْبُعَيْهِ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ وَهَذَا عِنْدَنَا خَطَأٌ وَالصَّوَابُ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ كَعْبٍ عَنْ سَلَمَةَ بْنِ الْأَكْوَعِ وَاللهُ أَعْلَمُ 10292 أَخْبَرَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى بْنِ الْوَزِيرِ بْنِ سُلَيْمَانَ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ عُفَيْرٍ عَنِ اللَّيْثِ عَنِ ابْنِ مُسَافِرٍ عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ كَعْبِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ أَنَّ سَلَمَةَ بْنَ الْأَكْوَعِ قَالَ لَمَّا كَانَ يَوْمُ خَيْبَرَ قَاتَلَ أَخِي قِتَالًا شَدِيدًا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَذَكَرَ نَحْوَهُ وَزَادَ فِيهِ قَالُوا اكْفُرُوا فَقُلْنَا أَبَيْنَا  

" A listener listened to our praising Allah (for) His goodly trial of us. Our Lord! acompany us, guard us and bestow upon us Thy grace. I am seeker of refuge in Allah from the Fire." (Using translation from Muslim 2718)  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَانَ إِذَا كَانَ فِي سَفَرٍ فَأَسْحَرَ يَقُولُ «سَمِعَ سَامِعٌ بِحَمْدِ اللهِ وَحُسْنِ بَلَائِهِ عَلَيْنَا رَبَّنَا صَاحِبْنَا وَأَفْضِلْ عَلَيْنَا عَائِذًا بِاللهِ مِنَ النَّارِ»  

" There is no god but Allah, Allah is the Greatest." Thereupon Allah's Apostle ﷺ said: Verily, you are not supplicating One Who is deaf or absent. He said: Abu Musa or Abdullah b Qais, should I not direct you to the words (which form) the treasure of Paradise? I said: Messenger of Allah, what are these? He said:" There is no might and no power but that of Allah." (Using translation from Muslim 2704c)   

عَنْ أَبِي مُوسَى الْأَشْعَرِيِّ أَنَّهُمْ كَانُوا مَعَ نَبِيِّ اللهِ ﷺ وَهُمْ يَصْعَدُونَ فِي ثَنِيَّةٍ نَادَى لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ وَاللهُ أَكْبَرُ فَقَالَ نَبِيُّ اللهِ ﷺ «إِنَّكُمْ لَا تُنَادُونَ أَصَمَّ وَلَا غَائِبًا» ثُمَّ قَالَ «أَلَا أَدُلُّكَ عَلَى كَلِمَةٍ مِنْ كَنْزِ الْجَنَّةِ؟» قُلْنَا مَا هِيَ؟ قَالَ «لَا حَوْلَ وَلَا قُوَّةَ إِلَّا بِاللهِ» 10295 وَعَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْأَعْلَى عَنْ مُعْتَمِرِ بْنِ سُلَيْمَانَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ وَبِهِ  

[Machine] We were with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ on a journey, and the people approached a valley, so they loudly proclaimed "Allahu Akbar" and "La ilaha illallah." Aasim raised his voice, and the Prophet ﷺ said, "Make it four times upon yourselves, for the One you are calling upon is not deaf. Indeed, He hears and is near. He is with you." He repeated it three times. Abu Musa said, "Then he heard me saying it from behind him, 'There is no power or strength except with Allah.'" He said, "O Abdullah bin Qais, shall I guide you to a word from the treasures of Paradise?" I said, "Yes, may my father and mother be sacrificed for you." He said, "There is no power or strength except with Allah."  

كُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فِي سَفَرٍ فَأَشْرَفَ النَّاسُ عَلَى وَادٍ فَجَهَرُوا بِالتَّكْبِيرِ وَالتَّهْلِيلِ اللهُ أَكْبَرُ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ وَرَفَعَ عَاصِمٌ صَوْتَهُ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «أَرْبَعُوا عَلَى أَنْفُسِكُمْ إِنَّ الَّذِي تَدَعُونَ لَيْسَ بِأَصَمَّ إِنَّهُ سَمِيعٌ قَرِيبٌ إِنَّهُ مَعَكُمْ» أَعَادَهَا ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ قَالَ أَبُو مُوسَى فَسَمِعَنِي أَقُولُ وَأَنَا خَلْفَهُ لَا حَوْلَ وَلَا قُوَّةَ إِلَّا بِاللهِ قَالَ «يَا عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ قَيْسٍ أَلَا أَدُلُّكَ عَلَى كَلِمَةٍ مِنْ كُنُوزِ الْجَنَّةِ؟» قُلْتُ بَلَى فِدَاكَ أَبِي وَأُمِّي قَالَ «لَا حَوْلَ وَلَا قُوَّةَ إِلَّا بِاللهِ»  

‘Abd Allah bin ‘Umar said “When the Apostle of Allaah ﷺ returned from an expedition, Hajj or ‘Umrah on every rising piece of ground he would say three times “Allaah is Most Great” and he would say “There is no god bt Allaah alone who has no partner, to Whom the dominion belongs, to Whom praise is due, and Who is Omnipotent, serving, prostrating ourselves before our Lord and expressing praise. Allaah alone has kept his word, helped His servant and routed the confederate. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 2770)   

أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ إِذَا قَفَلَ مِنَ الْجَيْشِ أَوِ الْحَجِّ أَوِ الْعُمْرَةِ فَأَوْفَى عَلَى فَدْفَدٍ أَوْ ثَنِيَّةٍ يُكَبِّرُ ثَلَاثَ تَكْبِيرَاتٍ ثُمَّ يَقُولُ «لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ لَهُ الْمُلْكُ وَلَهُ الْحَمْدُ وَهُوَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ آيِبُونَ تَائِبُونَ عَابِدُونَ سَاجِدُونَ لِرَبِّنَا حَامِدُونَ صَدَقَ اللهُ وَعْدَهُ وَنَصَرَ عَبْدَهُ وَهَزَمَ الْأَحْزَابَ وَحْدَهُ»  

‘Abd Allah bin ‘Umar said “When the Apostle of Allaah ﷺ returned from an expedition, Hajj or ‘Umrah on every rising piece of ground he would say three times “Allaah is Most Great” and he would say “There is no god bt Allaah alone who has no partner, to Whom the dominion belongs, to Whom praise is due, and Who is Omnipotent, serving, prostrating ourselves before our Lord and expressing praise. Allaah alone has kept his word, helped His servant and routed the confederate. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 2770)   

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ إِذَا قَفَلَ مِنْ حَجٍّ أَوْ عَمْرَةٍ أَوْ غَزْوٍ فَأَوْفَى عَلَى فَدْفَدٍ مِنَ الْأَرْضِ قَالَ «لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ لَهُ الْمُلْكُ وَلَهُ الْحَمْدُ وَهُوَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ آيِبُونَ تَائِبُونَ لِرَبِّنَا حَامِدُونَ صَدَقَ اللهُ وَعْدَهُ وَنَصَرَ عَبْدَهُ وَهَزَمَ الْأَحْزَابَ وَحْدَهُ»  

[Machine] Jabir said, "When we used to travel with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, we would climb and say Takbir (Allahu Akbar). And when we would descend, we would say Tasbih (Subhan Allah)." Abu 'Abdur-Rahman Al-Hasan narrated this on the authority of Jabir from a written document, not from hearing it directly.  

قَالَ جَابِرٌ كُنَّا إِذَا كُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فِي سَفَرٍ فَصَعِدْنَا كَبَّرْنَا وَإِذَا انْحَدَرْنَا سَبَّحْنَا قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الْحَسَنُ عَنْ جَابِرٍ صَحِيفَةً وَلَيْسَ بِسَمَاعٍ  

Whenever we went up a place we would say, "Allahu--Akbar (i.e. Allah is Greater)", and whenever we went down a place we would say, "Subhan Allah." (Using translation from Bukhārī 2993)   

«كُنَّا إِذَا صَعِدْنَا كَبَّرْنَا وَإِذَا هَبَطْنَا سَبَّحْنَا»
