[Machine] About his father who had witnessed the Battle of Badr with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , he said that he had observed the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in a night of prayer, during which the Messenger of Allah ﷺ kept vigil until dawn. When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ finished his prayer, Khubbab came to him and said, "O Messenger of Allah, I swear by my father and mother, you have prayed tonight a prayer that I have never seen you pray before." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Indeed, it was a prayer of desire and fear. I asked my Lord three things in it, and He gave me two and denied me one. I asked my Lord that He does not destroy us as He destroyed the previous nations, and He granted me that. I asked my Lord that He does not expose us to an enemy other than ourselves, and He granted me that. And I asked my Lord that He does not divide us into sects, and He denied me that."
عَنْ أَبِيهِ وَكَانَ قَدْ شَهِدَ بَدْرًا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ أَنَّهُ رَاقَبَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فِي لَيْلَةٍ صَلَّاهَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ كُلَّهَا حَتَّى كَانَ مَعَ الْفَجْرِ فَلَمَّا سَلَّمَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مِنْ صَلَاتِهِ جَاءَهُ خَبَّابٌ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ بِأَبِي أَنْتَ وَأُمِّي لَقَدْ صَلَّيْتَ اللَّيْلَةَ صَلَاةً مَا رَأَيْتُكَ صَلَّيْتَ نَحْوَهَا قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَجَلْ إِنَّهَا صَلَاةُ رَغَبٍ وَرَهَبٍ سَأَلْتُ رَبِّي فِيهَا ثَلَاثَ خِصَالٍ فَأَعْطَانِي اثْنَتَيْنِ وَمَنَعَنِي وَاحِدَةً سَأَلْتُ رَبِّي أَنْ لَا يُهْلِكَنَا بِمَا أَهْلَكَ بِهِ الْأُمَمَ قَبْلَنَا فَأَعْطَانِيهَا وَسَأَلْتُ رَبِّي أَنْ لَا يُظْهِرَ عَلَيْنَا عَدُوًّا مِنْ غَيْرِنَا فَأَعْطَانِيهَا وَسَأَلْتُ رَبِّي أَنْ لَا يَلْبِسَنَا شِيَعًا فَمَنَعَنِيهَا
