"بَيْنَمَا ثَلاَثَةُ نَفَرٍ يَمْشُونَ أخَذَهُمْ المَطَرُ فَأوَوْا إِلَى غَارٍ فِى جَبَل فَانْحَطَّ عَلَى فَمِ الغَارِ صَخْرَةٌ مِنَ الجَبَلِ فَانْطَبَقَتْ عَلَيْهِمْ، فَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ لِبَعْضٍ: انْظُرُوا أعْمَالًا عَمِلتُمُوهَا صَالِحَةً لله فَادْعُوا بِهَا لَعَلَّهُ يُفَرِّجُهَا عَنْكُمْ، فَقَالَ أحَدُهُمْ: اللَّهُمَّ إِنَّهُ كَانَ لِى وَالِدَانِ شَيْخَانِ كَبِيرَانِ وَامْرَأتِى وَلِىَ صِبْيَةٌ صِغَارٌ أرْعَى عَلَيْهِمْ، فَإِذَا ارْحلت (*) عَلَيْهِمْ حَلَبْتُ فَبَدَأتُ بِوَالِدَىَّ فَسَقَيْتهُمَا قَبْلَ بَنِىَّ، وَإنِّي نَأَى بِى ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ الشَّجَرُ فَلَمْ آتِ حَتَّى أمْسَيْتُ فَوَجَدْتُهُمَا قَدْ نَامَا، فَحَلَبْتُ كَمَا كُنْتُ أحْلُبُ فَجِئْتُ بِالحِلاَبِ فَقُمْتُ عِنْدَ رُءُوسِهِمَا أكْرَهُ أَنْ أوقِظَهُمَا مِنْ نَوْمِهِمَا وَأكْرَهُ أَنْ أسْقىَ الصِّبْيَةَ قَبْلَهُمَا، وَالصِّبْيَةُ يَتَضَاغَوْنَ عِنْدَ قَدَمَىَّ، فَلَمْ يَزَلْ ذَلِكَ دَأبِى وَدَأبَهُمْ حتَّى طَلَعَ الفَجْرُ، فَإنْ كنتَ تَعْلَمُ أنِّى فَعَلتُ ذَلِكَ ابْتِغَاءَ وَجْهِكَ فَافْرُجْ لَنَا منْهَا فُرْجَةً نَرَى مِنْهَا السَّمَاءَ، فَفَرَّجَ الله مِنْهَا فُرْجَةً، فَرَأَوْا مِنْهَا السَّمَاءَ، وَقَالَ الآخَرُ: اللَّهُمَّ إِنَّهُ كَانَتْ لِى ابْنَةُ عَمٍّ أحْبَبْتُهَا كَأشَدِّ مَا يُحِبُ الرَّجُلُ النِّسَاءَ، وَطَلَبَتُ إِلَيْهَا نَفْسَهَا فَأبَتْ حتَّى آتِيْهَا بِمِائَةِ دينَارٍ فَتَعِبْتُ حَتَّى جَمَعْتُ مائَةَ دينَارٍ فَجِئْتُهَا بِهَا، فَلَمَّا وَقَعْتُ بَيْنَ رِجْلَيْهَا قَالَتْ: يَا عَبْدَ الله اتَّقِ الله وَلاَ تَفْتَح الخَاتَم إِلَّا بِحَقِّهِ، فَقُمْتُ عَنْهَا، فَإِنْ كُنْتَ تَعْلَمُ أنِّى فَعَلتُ ذَلِكَ ابتِغَاءَ وَجْهِكَ فَافْرُجْ لَنَا مِنْهَا فُرْجَةً، فَفَرَّج لَهُمْ، وَقَالَ الآخَرُ: اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّى اسْتَأجَرْتُ أَجِيرًا بِفَرَقِ أُرْزٍ، فَلَمَّا قَضَى عَمَلَهُ قَالَ: أعْطِنِى حَقِّى فَعَرَضْتُ عَلَيْهِ فَرَقَهُ فَرَغِبَ عَنْهُ، فَلَمْ أزَلْ أَزْرَعُهُ حتَّى جَمَعْتُ مِثهُ بَقَرًا وَرِعَاءَهَا، فَجَاءَنِى فَقَالَ: اتَّقِ

الله وَلا تَظلِمْنِى حَقِّى، قُلتُ: اذْهَبْ إِلَى ذَلِكَ البَقَرِ وَرِعَائِهَا فَخُذْهَا، فَقَاَل: اتَّقِ الله وَلاَ تَسْتَهْزِئ بِى، فَقُلتُ: إِنِّى لاَ أَسْتَهْزِئُ بِكَ خُذْ ذَلِكَ البَقَرَ وَرِعَاءَها، فَأخَذَهُ فَذَهَبَ بِهِ، فَإِنْ كنْتَ تَعْلَمُ أَنِّى فَعَلتُ ذَلِكَ ابْتِغَاءَ وَجْهِكَ فَافْرُجْ مَا بَقِىَ، فَفَرَجَ الله مَا بَقِىَ".

The Prophet ﷺ said, "While three persons were walking, rain began to fall and they had to enter a cave in a mountain. A big rock rolled over and blocked the mouth of the cave. They said to each other, 'Invoke Allah with the best deed you have performed (so Allah might remove the rock)'. One of them said, 'O Allah! My parents were old and I used to go out for grazing (my animals). On my return I would milk (the animals) and take the milk in a vessel to my parents to drink. After they had drunk from it, I would give it to my children, family and wife. One day I was delayed and on my return I found my parents sleeping, and I disliked to wake them up. The children were crying at my feet (because of hunger). That state of affairs continued till it was dawn. O Allah! If You regard that I did it for Your sake, then please remove this rock so that we may see the sky.' So, the rock was moved a bit. The second said, 'O Allah! You know that I was in love with a cousin of mine, like the deepest love a man may have for a woman, and she told me that I would not get my desire fulfilled unless I paid her one-hundred Dinars (gold pieces). So, I struggled for it till I gathered the desired amount, and when I sat in between her legs, she told me to be afraid of Allah, and asked me not to deflower her except rightfully (by marriage). So, I got up and left her. O Allah! If You regard that I did if for Your sake, kindly remove this rock.' So, two-thirds of the rock was removed. Then the third man said, 'O Allah! No doubt You know that once I employed a worker for one Faraq (three Sa's) of millet, and when I wanted to pay him, he refused to take it, so I sowed it and from its yield I bought cows and a shepherd. After a time that man came and demanded his money. I said to him: Go to those cows and the shepherd and take them for they are for you. He asked me whether I was joking with him. I told him that I was not joking with him, and all that belonged to him. O Allah! If You regard that I did it sincerely for Your sake, then please remove the rock.' So, the rock was removed completely from the mouth of the cave."

Three men trapped in a cave find an exit based on prior good deeds done sincerely for the sake of God

bukhari:2272Abū al-Yamān > Shuʿayb > al-Zuhrī > Sālim b. ʿAbdullāh > ʿAbdullāh b. ʿUmar

I heard Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, "Three men from among those who were before you, set out together till they reached a cave at night and entered it. A big rock rolled down the mountain and closed the mouth of the cave. They said (to each other), Nothing could save you from this rock but to invoke Allah by giving reference to the righteous deed which you have done (for Allah's sake only).'"

"So, one of them said, 'O Allah! I had old parents and I never provided my family (wife, children, etc.) with milk before them. One day, by chance I was delayed, and I came late (at night) while they had slept. I milked the sheep for them and took the milk to them, but I found them sleeping. I disliked providing my family with the milk before them. I waited for them and the bowl of milk was in my hand and I kept on waiting for them to get up till the day dawned. Then they got up and drank the milk. O Allah! If I did that for Your Sake only, please relieve us from our critical situation caused by this rock.' So, the rock shifted a little but they could not get out."

The Prophet ﷺ added, "The second man said, 'O Allah! I had a cousin who was the dearest of all people to me and I wanted to have sexual relations with her but she refused. Later she had a hard time in a famine year and she came to me and I gave her one-hundred-and-twenty Dinars on the condition that she would not resist my desire, and she agreed. When I was about to fulfill my desire, she said: It is illegal for you to outrage my chastity except by legitimate marriage. So, I thought it a sin to have sexual intercourse with her and left her though she was the dearest of all the people to me, and also I left the gold I had given her. O Allah! If I did that for Your Sake only, please relieve us from the present calamity.' So, the rock shifted a little more but still they could not get out from there."

The Prophet ﷺ added, "Then the third man said, 'O Allah! I employed few laborers and I paid them their wages with the exception of one man who did not take his wages and went away. I invested his wages and I got much property thereby. (Then after some time) he came and said to me: O Allah's slave! Pay me my wages. I said to him: All the camels, cows, sheep, and slaves you see, are yours. He said: O Allah's slave! Don't mock me. I said: I am not mocking you. So, he took all the herd and drove them away and left nothing. O Allah! If I did that for Your Sake only, please relieve us from the present suffering.' So, that rock shifted completely and they got out walking."  

البخاري:٢٢٧٢حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْيَمَانِ أَخْبَرَنَا شُعَيْبٌ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ حَدَّثَنِي سَالِمُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عُمَرَ ؓ قَالَ

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ: «انْطَلَقَ ثَلاَثَةُ رَهْطٍ مِمَّنْ كَانَ قَبْلَكُمْ حَتَّى أَوَوُا الْمَبِيتَ إِلَى غَارٍ فَدَخَلُوهُ فَانْحَدَرَتْ صَخْرَةٌ مِنَ الْجَبَلِ فَسَدَّتْ عَلَيْهِمُ الْغَارَ فَقَالُوا إِنَّهُ لاَ يُنْجِيكُمْ مِنْ هَذِهِ الصَّخْرَةِ إِلاَّ أَنْ تَدْعُوا اللَّهَ بِصَالِحِ أَعْمَالِكُمْ۔»

«فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ مِنْهُمُ: اللَّهُمَّ كَانَ لِي أَبَوَانِ شَيْخَانِ كَبِيرَانِ وَكُنْتُ لاَ أَغْبِقُ قَبْلَهُمَا أَهْلاً وَلاَ مَالاً فَنَأَى بِي فِي طَلَبِ شَىْءٍ يَوْمًا فَلَمْ أُرِحْ عَلَيْهِمَا حَتَّى نَامَا فَحَلَبْتُ لَهُمَا غَبُوقَهُمَا فَوَجَدْتُهُمَا نَائِمَيْنِ وَكَرِهْتُ أَنْ أَغْبِقَ قَبْلَهُمَا أَهْلاً أَوْ مَالاً فَلَبِثْتُ وَالْقَدَحُ عَلَى يَدَىَّ أَنْتَظِرُ اسْتِيقَاظَهُمَا حَتَّى بَرَقَ الْفَجْرُ فَاسْتَيْقَظَا فَشَرِبَا غَبُوقَهُمَا۔ اللَّهُمَّ إِنْ كُنْتُ فَعَلْتُ ذَلِكَ ابْتِغَاءَ وَجْهِكَ فَفَرِّجْ عَنَّا مَا نَحْنُ فِيهِ مِنْ هَذِهِ الصَّخْرَةِ۔ فَانْفَرَجَتْ شَيْئًا لاَ يَسْتَطِيعُونَ الْخُرُوجَ۔»

قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ: «وَقَالَ الآخَرُ اللَّهُمَّ كَانَتْ لِي بِنْتُ عَمٍّ كَانَتْ أَحَبَّ النَّاسِ إِلَىَّ فَأَرَدْتُهَا عَنْ نَفْسِهَا فَامْتَنَعَتْ مِنِّي حَتَّى أَلَمَّتْ بِهَا سَنَةٌ مِنَ السِّنِينَ فَجَاءَتْنِي فَأَعْطَيْتُهَا عِشْرِينَ وَمِائَةَ دِينَارٍ عَلَى أَنْ تُخَلِّيَ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَ نَفْسِهَا فَفَعَلَتْ حَتَّى إِذَا قَدَرْتُ عَلَيْهَا قَالَتْ لاَ أُحِلُّ لَكَ أَنْ تَفُضَّ الْخَاتَمَ إِلاَّ بِحَقِّهِ فَتَحَرَّجْتُ مِنَ الْوُقُوعِ عَلَيْهَا فَانْصَرَفْتُ عَنْهَا وَهْىَ أَحَبُّ النَّاسِ إِلَىَّ وَتَرَكْتُ الذَّهَبَ الَّذِي أَعْطَيْتُهَا۔ اللَّهُمَّ إِنْ كُنْتُ فَعَلْتُ ذَلِكَ ابْتِغَاءَ وَجْهِكَ فَافْرُجْ عَنَّا مَا نَحْنُ فِيهِ۔ فَانْفَرَجَتِ الصَّخْرَةُ غَيْرَ أَنَّهُمْ لاَ يَسْتَطِيعُونَ الْخُرُوجَ مِنْهَا۔»

قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ: «وَقَالَ الثَّالِثُ اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي اسْتَأْجَرْتُ أُجَرَاءَ فَأَعْطَيْتُهُمْ أَجْرَهُمْ غَيْرَ رَجُلٍ وَاحِدٍ تَرَكَ الَّذِي لَهُ وَذَهَبَ فَثَمَّرْتُ أَجْرَهُ حَتَّى كَثُرَتْ مِنْهُ الأَمْوَالُ فَجَاءَنِي بَعْدَ حِينٍ فَقَالَ يَا عَبْدَ اللَّهِ أَدِّ إِلَىَّ أَجْرِي فَقُلْتُ لَهُ كُلُّ مَا تَرَى مِنْ أَجْرِكَ مِنَ الإِبِلِ وَالْبَقَرِ وَالْغَنَمِ وَالرَّقِيقِ فَقَالَ يَا عَبْدَ اللَّهِ لاَ تَسْتَهْزِئْ بِي فَقُلْتُ إِنِّي لاَ أَسْتَهْزِئُ بِكَ فَأَخَذَهُ كُلَّهُ فَاسْتَاقَهُ فَلَمْ يَتْرُكْ مِنْهُ شَيْئًا اللَّهُمَّ فَإِنْ كُنْتُ فَعَلْتُ ذَلِكَ ابْتِغَاءَ وَجْهِكَ فَافْرُجْ عَنَّا مَا نَحْنُ فِيهِ فَانْفَرَجَتِ الصَّخْرَةُ فَخَرَجُوا يَمْشُونَ۔»

The Prophet ﷺ said, "While three men were walking, It started raining and they took shelter (refuge) in a cave in a mountain. A big rock rolled down from the mountain and closed the mouth of the cave. They said to each other, "Think of good deeds which you did for Allah's sake only, and invoke Allah by giving reference to those deeds so that He may remove this rock from you." One of them said, 'O Allah! I had old parents and small children and I used to graze the sheep for them. On my return to them in the evening, I used to milk (the sheep) and start providing my parents first of all before my children. One day I was delayed and came late at night and found my parents sleeping. I milked (the sheep) as usual and stood by their heads. I hated to wake them up and disliked to give milk to my children before them, although my children were weeping (because of hunger) at my feet till the day dawned. O Allah! If I did this for Your sake only, kindly remove the rock so that we could see the sky through it.' So, Allah removed the rock a little and they saw the sky. The second man said, 'O Allah! I was in love with a cousin of mine like the deepest love a man may have for a woman. I wanted to outrage her chastity but she refused unless I gave her one hundred Dinars. So, I struggled to collect that amount. And when I sat between her legs, she said, 'O Allah's slave! Be afraid of Allah and do not deflower me except rightfully (by marriage).' So, I got up. O Allah! If I did it for Your sake only, please remove the rock.' The rock shifted a little more. Then the third man said, 'O Allah! I employed a laborer for a Faraq of rice and when he finished his job and demanded his right, I presented it to him, but he refused to take it. So, I sowed the rice many time till I gathered cows and their shepherd (from the yield). (Then after some time) He came and said to me, 'Fear Allah (and give me my right)." I said, 'Go and take those cows and the shepherd.' He said, 'Be afraid of Allah! Don't mock at me.' I said, 'I am not mocking at you. Take (all that).' So, he took all that. O Allah! If I did that for Your sake only, please remove the rest of the rock.' So, Allah removed the rock."

Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Once three persons (from the previous nations) were traveling, and suddenly it started raining and they took shelter in a cave. The entrance of the cave got closed while they were inside. They said to each other, 'O you! Nothing can save you except the truth, so each of you should ask Allah's Help by referring to such a deed as he thinks he did sincerely (i.e. just for gaining Allah's Pleasure).' So one of them said, 'O Allah! You know that I had a laborer who worked for me for one Faraq (i.e. three Sas) of rice, but he departed, leaving it (i.e. his wages). I sowed that Faraq of rice and with its yield I bought cows (for him). Later on when he came to me asking for his wages, I said (to him), 'Go to those cows and drive them away.' He said to me, 'But you have to pay me only a Faraq of rice,' I said to him, 'Go to those cows and take them, for they are the product of that Faraq (of rice).' So he drove them. O Allah! If you consider that I did that for fear of You, then please remove the rock.' The rock shifted a bit from the mouth of the cave. The second one said, 'O Allah, You know that I had old parents whom I used to provide with the milk of my sheep every night. One night I was delayed and when I came, they had slept, while my wife and children were crying with hunger. I used not to let them (i.e. my family) drink unless my parents had drunk first. So I disliked to wake them up and also disliked that they should sleep without drinking it, I kept on waiting (for them to wake) till it dawned. O Allah! If You consider that I did that for fear of you, then please remove the rock.' So the rock shifted and they could see the sky through it. The (third) one said, 'O Allah! You know that I had a cousin (i.e. my paternal uncle's daughter) who was most beloved to me and I sought to seduce her, but she refused, unless I paid her one-hundred Dinars (i.e. gold pieces). So I collected the amount and brought it to her, and she allowed me to sleep with her. But when I sat between her legs, she said, 'Be afraid of Allah, and do not deflower me but legally. 'I got up and left the hundred Dinars (for her). O Allah! If You consider that I did that for fear of you than please remove the rock. So Allah saved them and they came out (of the cave)."

Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "While three persons were traveling, they were overtaken by rain and they took shelter in a cave in a mountain. A big rock fell from the mountain over the mouth of the cave and blocked it. They said to each other. 'Think of such good (righteous) deeds which, you did for Allah's sake only, and invoke Allah by giving reference to those deeds so that Allah may relieve you from your difficulty. one of them said, 'O Allah! I had my parents who were very old and I had small children for whose sake I used to work as a shepherd. When I returned to them at night and milked (the sheep), I used to start giving the milk to my parents first before giving to my children. And one day I went far away in search of a grazing place (for my sheep), and didn't return home till late at night and found that my parents had slept. I milked (my livestock) as usual and brought the milk vessel and stood at their heads, and I disliked to wake them up from their sleep, and I also disliked to give the milk to my children before my parents though my children were crying (from hunger) at my feet. So this state of mine and theirs continued till the day dawned. (O Allah!) If you considered that I had done that only for seeking Your pleasure, then please let there be an opening through which we can see the sky.' So Allah made for them an opening through which they could see the sky. Then the second person said, 'O Allah! I had a she-cousin whom I loved as much as a passionate man love a woman. I tried to seduce her but she refused till I paid her one-hundred Dinars So I worked hard till I collected one hundred Dinars and went to her with that But when I sat in between her legs (to have sexual intercourse with her), she said, 'O Allah's slave! Be afraid of Allah ! Do not deflower me except legally (by marriage contract). So I left her O Allah! If you considered that I had done that only for seeking Your pleasure then please let the rock move a little to have a (wider) opening.' So Allah shifted that rock to make the opening wider for them. And the last (third) person said 'O Allah ! I employed a laborer for wages equal to a Faraq (a certain measure: of rice, and when he had finished his job he demanded his wages, but when I presented his due to him, he gave it up and refused to take it. Then I kept on sowing that rice for him (several times) till managed to buy with the price of the yield, some cows and their shepherd Later on the laborer came to me an said. '(O Allah's slave!) Be afraid o Allah, and do not be unjust to me an give me my due.' I said (to him). 'Go and take those cows and their shepherd. So he took them and went away. (So, O Allah!) If You considered that I had done that for seeking Your pleasure, then please remove the remaining part of the rock.' And so Allah released them (from their difficulty).

Three persons set out on a journey. They were overtaken by rain and they had to find protection in a mountain cave where at its mouth there fell a rock of that mountain and thus blocked them altogether. One of them said to the others: Look to your good deeds that you performed for the sake of Allah and then supplicate Allah, the Exalted, that He might rescue you (from this trouble). One of them said: 0 Allah, I had my parents who were old and my wife and my small children also. I tended the flock and when I came back to them in the evening, I milked them (the sheep, goats, cows, etc.) and first served that milk to my parents. One day I was obliged to go out to a distant place in search of fodder and I could not come back before evening and found them (the parents) asleep. I milked the animals as I used to milk and brought milk to them and stood by their heads avoiding to disturb them from sleep and I did not deem it advisable to serve milk to my children before serving them. My children wept near my feet. I remained there in that very state and my parents too until it was morning. And (0 Allah) if Thou art aware that I did this in order to seek Thine pleasure, grant us riddance from this trouble. (The rock slipped a bit) that they could see the sky. The second one said: 0 Allah, I had a female cousin whom I loved more than the men love the women. I wanted to have sexual intercourse with her; she refused but on the condition of getting one hundred dinirs. It was with very great difficulty that I could collect one hundred dinirs and then paid them to her and when I was going to have a sexual intercourse with her, that she said: Servant of Allah, fear Allah and do not break the seal (of chastity) but by lawful means. I got up. 0 Allah, if Thou art aware that I did this in order to seek Thine pleasure, rid us from this trouble. The situation was somewhat eased for them. The third one said: Allah, I employed a workman for a measure of rice. After he had finished his work I gave him his dues (in the form of) a measure of rice, but he did not accept them. I used these rice as seeds, and that gave a bumper crop and I became rich enough to have cows and flocks (in my possession). He came to me and said: Fear Allah, and commit no crueltv upon me in regard to my dues. I said to him: Takeaway this flock of cows and sheep. He said: Fear Allah and do not make a fun of me. I said: I am not making a fun of you. You take the cows and the flocks. So he took them. 0 Allah, if Thou art aware that I did it for Thine pleasure, case the situation for us. And Allah relieved them from the rest of the trouble.

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent Ghālib ibn ‘Abdullah al-Kalbi with Kalb, the Lion, to the tribe of Banī Mulawwah in al-Kudayd. He commanded him to change their position, so we went with him until we reached Qudayd. There, we met al-Harith ibn Mālik, who was from the tribe of Lays, so we captured him. He said, "I have only come to embrace Islam." Ghālib ibn ‘Abdullah said, "If you have come as a Muslim, then no harm will come to you for one day and one night. However, if you have come for something else, we will take precautions with you." He said, "I give you my word and security." So Ghālib ibn ‘Abdullah gave him a bond of safety, and then he left someone dark-skinned with him, who was with us. He said to him, "Stay with him until we pass by you. If he confronts you, grab his head." He said, "Then we continued until we reached the belly of al-Kudayd. We camped there after ‘Asr prayer. My companions sent me to a hilltop to observe the enemy. I lay on top of it until it was Maghrib time. A man among them came out and looked. He saw me lying on the hilltop and said to his wife, 'By Allah, I see someone lying on this hilltop. I did not see him in the morning. Be careful, lest the dogs have eaten some of our provisions.' She looked and said, 'No, by Allah, I have not lost anything.' He said, 'Then give me my bow and two arrows from my quiver.' She gave them to him, and he shot me with an arrow, which I placed by my side. I took it and did not move. Then he shot me with another arrow, which I placed on top of my right shoulder. I took it and did not move. He said to his wife, 'By Allah, these arrows have touched me. If they were enchanted, they would have moved. When it is morning, seek for my arrows and take them. However, do not bite them, for the dogs might be affected by them.' We waited there until their scent had dissipated, and they settled down or went to sleep. In the darkness of the night, we launched a surprise attack on them and killed those we killed from among them, and we took their flocks. We headed off swiftly until we passed by al-Harith ibn al-Barssā’, his friend. We took him with us. The people shouted aloud to their people in a state of shock, and we advanced swiftly. When there was nothing left between us and them except the belly of the valley, a flood came down between us and them, which Allah sent wherever He pleased. We had never seen anything like it before, neither rain nor hail. It came with something that no one can withstand. We saw them standing, looking at us, but none of them could advance, while we crossed it swiftly until it settled. Then we attacked them from a hidden position until we defeated them with what we had in our hands.

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Whoever among you can be like the companion of the Trench, then let him be like him." They said, "O Messenger of Allah, who is the companion of the Trench?" He said, "There were three men who went out during a rainy night and the sky became cloudy, so they sought shelter in a cave. A large rock rolled down from the top of the mountain and blocked the entrance. They tried to move it but were unable. One of them said to the others, 'Indeed, we have been afflicted with a great calamity, so let each of you supplicate to Allah with the best of his deeds, perhaps Allah will relieve us from this.' One of them said, 'O Allah, You know that I had parents who were elderly and I used to milk their animals and bring them the milk before I would consume anything myself. One day, I was delayed and they went to sleep before I could give them the milk. I stayed standing, with the container of milk in my hand, not wanting to burden them by waking them up or starting with anyone else before them. And my children were crying out of hunger around me. O Allah, if I did that seeking Your pleasure, then remove this harm from us.' Then the rock moved a bit. Another one said, 'O Allah, You know that I had a cousin whom I loved more than anything else of Your creation. I wanted her for myself, but she refused unless I paid her a hundred gold coins. So I struggled and worked hard until I earned a hundred gold coins and I gave them to her. When I sat with her, she said, 'Fear Allah and do not disgrace the signet ring.' So I stood up from her, and O Allah, if I did that seeking Your pleasure, then remove this harm from us.' Then the rock moved a bit more. The third one said, 'O Allah, You know that I worked for a man for a share of a of a camel loaded with food grains. When I completed my work and went to him to take my share, he gave me my due but he gave me an extra amount as a bonus. So I said to him, 'Fear Allah and do not be unfair in your dealings.' He replied, 'Take it, for it is a bonus from Allah to you.' O Allah, if I did that seeking Your pleasure, then remove this harm from us.' Then the rock moved completely and they were able to leave the cave."

[Machine] Zainab bint Rasul Allah (pbuh) said, as I was preparing in Mecca to go to my father, Hind bint Utbah ibn Rabiah followed me. She said, "O daughter of Muhammad, did it not reach me that you intend to leave with your father?" I said, "I did not intend that." She said, "O cousin's daughter, do not do that. If you have any needs for supplies for your journey and want me to deliver them to your father, I will do it because I have a need from you." Zainab said, "By Allah, I did not see it except for her to do so." She said, "But I was afraid of her, so I denied that I intended it and I prepared myself. When I finished my preparations, my brother-in-law Kananah ibn al-Rabi'a came and he brought a camel for me. I rode on it, and he took his bow and his spear and led me out in broad daylight while I was in my litter. The men of Quraysh spoke about it and went out in search of her until they caught up with her at Dhu Tuwa. The first one to reach her was Hubbab ibn al-Aswad ibn al-Muttalib ibn Asad ibn Abdul-Uzza, and Nafi' ibn Abd Qais al-Fihri, a relative of the Banu Abi 'Ubayd, from Iffriqiyyah. Hubbab intimidated them with his spear while she was in her litter, and the woman was pregnant as they claimed. When she was on the verge of giving birth, I exposed her belly, so her father-in-law blessed it and his spear fell. He said, "No man comes near me except that I will strike him with an arrow." The people hesitated about him, and Abu Sufyan of the Quraysh came to him in a delegation, saying, "O man, cease your actions against us until we converse with you." Then Abu Sufyan approached him until he stood in front of him and said, "Indeed, you did not achieve what you wanted. You left with the woman in public, and our misfortune and calamity are known. Muhammad (pbuh) has not come to us thinking that we have humiliated ourselves for our misfortune. It is weakness and despair for us. By my life, we are not withholding her from her father out of necessity, but return with the woman until the voices settle and people say that we have returned her, then secretly guide her back to her father." He did as he was told, and he returned and stayed for several nights until the voices settled. Then he took her out at night and handed her over to Zaid ibn Harithah and his companion.

[Machine] We were on a journey with the Prophet ﷺ, and we traveled throughout the night until we reached the end of the night before dawn. We had an encounter, and there is no better encounter for a traveler than it. We were only awakened by the heat of the sun, as it was the first time Bilal had awakened, followed by others. Umar ibn al-Khattab was the last to wake up. When the Prophet ﷺ slept, no one would wake him up until he woke up himself, because we did not know what would happen to him in his sleep. When Umar woke up and saw what had happened to the people, he became very upset and raised his voice in takbeer (saying Allahu Akbar). He continued to say takbeer and raise his voice until he woke up the Prophet ﷺ with his voice. The people complained to him about what had happened to them, and he said, "Do not worry, continue the journey." So we continued the journey, and soon after that, we stopped and the Prophet ﷺ called for wudu. He performed wudu and then the call to prayer was made, and he prayed with the people. He prolonged his prayer, and when a man wanted to leave, he did not pray with the people. The Prophet ﷺ asked him why he did not pray with the people, and he said it was because he had janabah (sexual impurity) and no water. The Prophet ﷺ told him to go to the nearby irrigated land (sa'id), as it would be sufficient for him. Then the people complained to him about thirst, so we stopped again and he called a man named Abu Raja' and called Ali. He told them to go and search for water, so they set off and met a woman with two water containers on a camel. They approached her and asked for water, and she said she had made a promise about the water until that time. They told her to go, and she asked where to go, and they said to the Prophet ﷺ. She asked if it was the one they called As-Saabi', and they confirmed. So she went with them to the Prophet ﷺ and told him what had happened. He called for a vessel and placed the water containers in it, then he rinsed his mouth and returned the water to the container, and then he repeated it with the water containers. Then he tied the mouths of the containers and let the water flow, and called out to the people to drink and quench their thirst. He gave the one who had janabah his portion and told him to pour the remaining water on himself. By Allah, she was still standing, watching what he was doing with her water. It seemed to us that they were even more amazed than she was. The Prophet ﷺ said, "Gather for her whatever is between a jar and a sa'iqa and a handful." So they gathered food for her in a garment and placed it in front of her. The Prophet ﷺ told her, "You know, by Allah, we did not take anything from your water, but it was Allah who provided it for us." She went to her people, who were waiting for her, and they asked her why she had been delayed. She said, "By Allah, I have never seen people like them before. Either they are sorcerers, or he is truly the messenger of Allah ﷺ." The Muslims would change places with those around her who were polytheists and would not be struck by the drought that followed. One day, she asked her people if they were interested in Islam, and they obediently went and all embraced Islam.

The Prophet ﷺ said, "While three persons were walking, rain began to fall and they had to enter a cave in a mountain. A big rock rolled over and blocked the mouth of the cave. They said to each other, 'Invoke Allah with the best deed you have performed (so Allah might remove the rock)'. One of them said, 'O Allah! My parents were old and I used to go out for grazing (my animals). On my return I would milk (the animals) and take the milk in a vessel to my parents to drink. After they had drunk from it, I would give it to my children, family and wife. One day I was delayed and on my return I found my parents sleeping, and I disliked to wake them up. The children were crying at my feet (because of hunger). That state of affairs continued till it was dawn. O Allah! If You regard that I did it for Your sake, then please remove this rock so that we may see the sky.' So, the rock was moved a bit. The second said, 'O Allah! You know that I was in love with a cousin of mine, like the deepest love a man may have for a woman, and she told me that I would not get my desire fulfilled unless I paid her one-hundred Dinars (gold pieces). So, I struggled for it till I gathered the desired amount, and when I sat in between her legs, she told me to be afraid of Allah, and asked me not to deflower her except rightfully (by marriage). So, I got up and left her. O Allah! If You regard that I did if for Your sake, kindly remove this rock.' So, two-thirds of the rock was removed. Then the third man said, 'O Allah! No doubt You know that once I employed a worker for one Faraq (three Sa's) of millet, and when I wanted to pay him, he refused to take it, so I sowed it and from its yield I bought cows and a shepherd. After a time that man came and demanded his money. I said to him: Go to those cows and the shepherd and take them for they are for you. He asked me whether I was joking with him. I told him that I was not joking with him, and all that belonged to him. O Allah! If You regard that I did it sincerely for Your sake, then please remove the rock.' So, the rock was removed completely from the mouth of the cave." (Using translation from Bukhārī 2215)

[Machine] "O Ibrahim, where are you going, leaving us in this valley that has no company or anything?" She said to him repeatedly, but he did not turn to her. She then asked him, "Did Allah command you to do this?" He said, "Yes." She said, "Then He will not let us perish." Then she returned, and Ibrahim set off facing the Kaaba, and he made the following supplication, raising his hands: "Indeed, I have settled my descendants in an uncultivated valley near Your sacred house, O Allah, [our Lord], that they may establish prayer. So make hearts among the people incline toward them and provide for them from the fruits that they might be grateful." (Quran 14:37) Then Ismail's mother breastfed and nursed Ismail until the water in the water-skin was depleted, causing her and her son to thirst and hunger. She disliked looking at her child in that state. She then saw Mount Safa closest to her, so she ascended it and looked to see if anyone was there. When she saw no one, she descended and walked briskly until she reached the valley, raising the edges of her dress to protect herself. She did this seven times. Ibn Abbas said: The Prophet ﷺ said, "That is why the people run between them." When she descended from Mount Marwah, she heard a voice, so she said, "Stay here, if you will" and listened again. When she heard nothing, she said, "I have heard you. If you have any means of assistance, then help us." Then she heard the sound again. She said, "Indeed, I have [now] perceived that I am being pursued." She hurried to the mountain and upon reaching it, she looked to see if anyone was there, but she found no one. She did this seven times. Ibn Abbas said: The Prophet ﷺ said, "May Allah have mercy on the mother of Ismail; if she had left the water flowing, it would have been a flowing stream." So she drank from it and nursed her child. The angel said to her, "Do not fear of being lost, for there is a house of Allah that will be constructed by this boy and his father, and Allah will never abandon them." The house was at a higher elevation than the surrounding land, like a fixed and firm mountain. Streams flowed from it on both sides. They lived in this manner until a group or a tribe passed by and saw birds circling above a specific location. They said, "There must be water there, this is the site we have been searching for." They sent someone, and behold, there was indeed water. They informed Ismail's family about it, and they settled there. Ismail grew up and learned Arabic from them. He amazed them with his intelligence. When he reached marriageable age, they married him to a woman from their tribe. Ismail's mother passed away.

bayhaqi:11640al-Sayyid Abū al-Ḥasan Muḥammad b. al-Ḥusayn b. Dāwud al-ʿAlawī ؒ > Abū Ḥāmid Aḥmad b. Muḥammad b. al-Ḥasan al-Ḥāfiẓ Sanah Khams And ʿIshrīn Withalāthimiāʾah > Muḥammad b. Yaḥyá al-Dhuhlī > Yaʿqūb b. Ibrāhīm b. Saʿd from my father > Ṣāliḥ b. Kaysān > Nāfiʿ > ʿAbdullāh b. ʿUmar

The Prophet ﷺ said, "While three men were walking, It started raining and they took shelter (refuge) in a cave in a mountain. A big rock rolled down from the mountain and closed the mouth of the cave. They said to each other, "Think of good deeds which you did for Allah's sake only, and invoke Allah by giving reference to those deeds so that He may remove this rock from you." One of them said, 'O Allah! I had old parents and small children and I used to graze the sheep for them. On my return to them in the evening, I used to milk (the sheep) and start providing my parents first of all before my children. One day I was delayed and came late at night and found my parents sleeping. I milked (the sheep) as usual and stood by their heads. I hated to wake them up and disliked to give milk to my children before them, although my children were weeping (because of hunger) at my feet till the day dawned. O Allah! If I did this for Your sake only, kindly remove the rock so that we could see the sky through it.' So, Allah removed the rock a little and they saw the sky. The second man said, 'O Allah! I was in love with a cousin of mine like the deepest love a man may have for a woman. I wanted to outrage her chastity but she refused unless I gave her one hundred Dinars. So, I struggled to collect that amount. And when I sat between her legs, she said, 'O Allah's slave! Be afraid of Allah and do not deflower me except rightfully (by marriage).' So, I got up. O Allah! If I did it for Your sake only, please remove the rock.' The rock shifted a little more. Then the third man said, 'O Allah! I employed a laborer for a Faraq of rice and when he finished his job and demanded his right, I presented it to him, but he refused to take it. So, I sowed the rice many time till I gathered cows and their shepherd (from the yield). (Then after some time) He came and said to me, 'Fear Allah (and give me my right)." I said, 'Go and take those cows and the shepherd.' He said, 'Be afraid of Allah! Don't mock at me.' I said, 'I am not mocking at you. Take (all that).' So, he took all that. O Allah! If I did that for Your sake only, please remove the rest of the rock.' So, Allah removed the rock." (Using translation from Bukhārī 2333)

"انْطَلَقَ ثَلاَثَةُ رَهْطٍ مِمَّنْ كَانَ قَبْلَكُمْ حَتَّى أَوَوُا المَبِيتَ إِلَى غَارٍ فَدَخَلُوهُ، فَانْحَدَرَتْ عَلَيْهِمْ صَخْرَةٌ مِنَ الجَبَلِ فَسَدَّتْ عَلَيْهِمُ الغَارَ، فَقَالُوا: إِنَّهُ لاَ ينجِيكُمْ مِنْ هَذِهِ الصَّخْرَةِ إِلَّا أَنْ تَدْعُوا الله بِصَالِحِ أعْمَالِكُمْ، قَالَ رَجُل مِنْهُمْ: اللَّهُمَّ كانَ لِى أبَوانِ شَيْخَانِ كبِيرَانِ، وَكنتُ لاَ أَغْبِقُ قَبْلَهُمَا أهْلًا وَلاَ مَالًا، فَنَأى بِى فِى طَلَبِ شَىْءٍ يَوْمًا فَلَمْ أُرِحْ عَلَيْهِمَا حَتَّى نَامَا، فَحَلَبْتُ لَهُمَا غُبُوقَهُمَا، فَوَجَدْتُهُمَا نَائِمِيْنِ، فَكَرِهْتُ أَنْ أَغْبِقَ قَبْلَهُمَا أهْلًا أو مَالًا، فَلَبِثْتُ وَالقَدَحُ عَلَى يَدَىَّ أنْتَظِرُ اسْتِيقَاظَهُمَا حَتَّى بَرِقَ الفَجْرُ، فَاسْتَيْقَظَا، فَشِرِبَا غُبُوقَهُمَا اللَّهُمَّ إِنْ كنتُ فَعَلتُ ذَلِكَ ابْتِغَاءَ وَجْهِكَ، فَفَرِّجْ عَنَّا مَا نَحْنُ فِيهِ مِنْ هَذِهِ الصَّخْرَةِ، فَانْفَرَجَتْ شَيْئًا لاَ يَسْتَطِيعُونَ الخُرُوجَ، وَقَالَ الآخَرُ: اللَّهُمَّ كَانَتْ لِى ابْنَةُ عَمٍّ كانَتْ أَحَبَّ النَّاسِ إِلَىَّ، فَأرَدْتُهَا عَلَى نَفْسِهَا فَامْتَنَعَتْ مِنِّى، حَتَّى أَلَمَّتْ بِهَا سَنَةٌ مِنَ السِّنِينَ فَجَاءَتْنِى فَأعْطَيْتُهَا عِشْرِينَ وَمِائَةَ دِينَارٍ عَلَى أَنْ تُخَلِّى بَيْنِى وَبَيْنَ نَفْسِهَا فَفَعَلَتْ، حَتَّى إِذَا قَدَرْتُ عَلَيْهَا قَالَتْ: لاَ أحِلُّ لَكَ أَنْ تَفُضَّ الخَاتَمَ إِلَّا بِحَقِّهِ، فَتَحَرَّجْتُ مِنَ الوُقُوع عَلَيْهَا، فَانْصَرَفْتُ عَنْهَا وَهِىَ أحَبُّ النَّاسِ إِلَىَّ، وَتَرَكْتُ الَّذِى أعْطَيْتُهَا، اللَّهُمَّ إِنْ كُنْتُ فَعَلتُ ذَلِكَ ابْتِغَاءَ وَجْهِكَ، فَأفْرِجْ عَنَّا مَا نَحْنُ فِيهِ، فَانْفَرَجَتِ الصَّخْرَةُ غَيْر أنَّهُمْ لاَ يَسْتَطِيعُونَ الخُرُوجَ مِنْهَا، وَقَالَ الثَّالِثُ: اللَّهُمَّ اسْتَأَجَرْتُ أجَرَاءَ فَأعْطَيْتُهُمْ أجْرَهُمْ غَيْرَ رَجُلٍ تَرَكَ الَّذِى لَهُ وَذَهَبَ، فَثَمَّرْتُ أجْرَهُ حَتَّى كَثُرَتْ مِنْهُ الأمْوَالُ فَجَاءَنِى بَعْدَ حِينٍ فَقَالَ: يَا عَبْدَ الله أَدِّ إِلَىَّ أجْرِى، فَقُلتُ لَهُ: كُلُّ مَا تَرَى مِنْ أجْرِكَ مِنَ الإِبِلِ وَالبَقَرِ وَالغَنَم وَالرَّقِيقِ، فَقَالَ: يَا عَبْدَ الله لاَ تَسْتَهْزِئْ بِى، فَقُلتُ: إِنِّى لاَ أَسْتَهْزِئُ بِكَ، فَأخَذَهُ كلَّهُ فَاسْتَاقَهُ فَلَمْ يَتْرُكْ مِنْهُ شَيْئًا. اللَّهُمَّ فَإِنْ كنتُ فَعَلتُ ذَلِكَ ابْتِغَاءَ وَجْهِكَ فَأفْرِجْ عَنَا مَا نَحْنُ فِيهِ، فَانْفَرَجَتِ الصَّخْرَةُ، فَخَرَجُوا يَمْشُونَ".

" (*) أُحْكُمْ فِيهِ مَا شِئْتَ فَغَضِبتَ عِنْدَ ذَلِكَ وَتَرَكَ إِجَارَتَهُ وَوَضَعْتُ حَقَّهُ

في جَانِبٍ منَ الْبَيْتِ مَا شَاءَ الله، ثُمَّ مَرَّتْ بِى بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ بَقَرٌ فَاشْتَرَيْتُ بِهِ فَصِيلًا مِنَ الْبَقَرِ فَأَمْسَكْتُهُ حَتَّى كَبِرَ ثُمَّ بِعْتُهُ، ثُمَّ صَرَفْتُ ثَمَنَهُ في بَقَرَةٍ فَحَمَلَتْ ثُمَّ تَوَالَدَتْ لَهَا حَتَّى مَا شَاءَ الله، ثُمَّ مَرَّ بِى بَعْدُ شَيْخ ضَعِيفٌ لَا أَعرِفهُ فَقَالَ لَهُ: إِنَّ لِى عِنْدَكَ حَقَّا فَذَكَّرهُ حَتَّى عَرَفْتُهُ، فَقُلْتُ: نَعَمْ إيَّاكَ أَبْغِى، فَعَرَضْتُهَا عَلَيْهِ جَمِيعًا، فَقُلْتُ: هَذَا حَقُّكَ، فَقَالَ: يَا عَبْدَ الله لَا تَسْتَهْزِئ بِى إِنْ لَمْ تَتَصَدَّقْ عَلَى فَأَعْطِنِى حَقِّى، فَقُلْتُ: وَالله مَا أَسْخَرُ مِنْكَ إِنَّهَا لَحَقُّكَ مَا لِى مِنْهَا شَىْءٌ فَدَفَعْتُهَا، اللَّهُمَّ إِنْ كُنْتُ فَعَلْتُ ذَلِكَ لِوَجْهِكَ فَافْرِجْ عَنَّا فَانْصدع الْجَبَلُ حَتَّى رَأوْا وأَبْصَرُوا وَقَالَ الآخَرُ: فَعَلْتُ حَسَنَةً مَرَّة، كَانَ عِنْدِى فَضْلٌ وَأَصَابَتِ النَّاسَ شِدَّةٌ فَجَاءَتْنِى امْرَأَةٌ تَطلبُ مِنِّى مَعْرُوفًا فَقُلْتُ لَهَا: لَا وَالله مَا دُونَ نَفْسِكِ فأبت عَلَىَّ، ثُمَّ رَجَعَتْ فَذَكَرْت ذَلِكَ لِزَوْجِهَا فَقَالَ: أَعْطِيهِ نَفْسَكِ فَأَغْنِى عِيَالَكِ، فَجَاءَتْنِى فَنَاشَدَتْنِى الله، فَقُلْتُ لَهَا: لَا وَالله مَا هُوَ دُونَ نَفْسِكِ، فَلَمَّا رَأَتْ ذَلِكَ أَسْلَمَتْ إِلَىَّ نَفْسَهَا، فَلَمَّا كَشَفْتُهَا وهَمَمْتُ بِهَا ارتَعَدْت مِنْ تَحْتِى، فَقُلْتُ لَهَا مَالَكِ؟ قَالَتْ: أخَافُ الله رَبَّ الْعَالِمينَ، فَقُلْتُ لَهَا: خِفْتِ الله في الشِّدَّةِ وَلَمْ أَخفْهُ في الرَّخَاءِ فَتَرَكْتُهَا وَأَعْطَيْتُهَا مَا يَحِقُّ عَلَىَّ بِما كَشَفْتُهَا، اللَّهُمَّ إِنْ كُنْتُ فَعَلْتُ ذَلِكَ لِوَجْهِكَ فَأفْرِجْ عَلَيْنَا، فَانْصَدَعَ الْجَبَلُ وَعَرَفُوا وَتَبَيَّنَ لَهُمْ، قَالَ الآخَرُ قَدْ عَملْتُ حَسَنَةً مَرَّةً كَانَ لِى أَبَوَانِ شَيْخَانِ كَبِيرَانِ، وَكَانَتْ لِى غَنَمٌ فَأُطْعِمُ أَبَوَاىَ وَأَسْقِيهِمَا ثُمَّ أَرْجِعُ إِلَى غَنَمِى، فَلَمَّا كانَ ذَات يَوْمٍ أَصَابَنِى غَيْثٌ فَمَسَّنِى فَلَم أَرْجِعْ حَتَّى أَمْسيْتُ فَأتَيْتُ أَهْلِى فَأَخَذْتُ مَحْلَبِى فَحَلَبْتُ وَتَرَكْتُ غَنَمِى قَائِمَةً فَمَضَيْتُ إِلَى أَبَوَاىَ لأَسْقِيَهُمَا فَوَجَدْتَهُمَا قَدْ نَامَا، فَشَقَّ عَلَىَّ أَنْ أُوقِظَهُمَا، وَشَقَّ عَلَىَّ أَنْ أَتْرُكَ غَنَمِى فَمَا بَرِحْتُ جَالِسًا وَمَحْلَبِى عَلَى يَدَىَّ حَتَّى أَيْقَظَهُمَا الصُّبْحُ، اللَّهُمَّ إِنْ كُنْتُ فَعَلَتُ ذَلِكَ لِوَجْهِكَ فَافْرِجْ عَنَّا، فَقَالَ الْجَبَلُ طَاقّ فَفَرَّجَ الله عَنْهُمْ فَخَرجُوا".

"عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ: خَرَجَ ثَلَاثَةُ نَفَرٍ فَأَصَابَتْهُمُ السَّمَاءُ فَدَخَلُوا غَارًا فَانْطَبَقَ عَلَيْهِمُ الجَبَلُ، فَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ لِبَعْضٍ: هَذَا بِأعْمَالِكُمْ، فليقم كل رجل منكم فَلْيَدْعُ اللهَ - تَعَالَى- بِخَيْرِ عَمَلٍ عَمِلَهُ، فَقَامَ أَحَدُهُمْ فَقَالَ: اللَّهُمَّ إِنْ كُنْتَ تَعْلَمُ أَنَّهُ كَانَ لِي أَبَوَانِ كَبِيرَانِ وَكُنْتُ لَا أَغْتَبِقُ حَتَّى أَغْبِقَهُمَا، وَأَنِّي أَتَيْتُهُمَا لَيْلَةً بِغَبُوقِهِمَا فَقُمْتُ عَلَى رُؤُسِهِمَا فَوَجَدْتُهُمَا نَائِمَيْنِ، فَكَرِهْتُ أَنْ أُنَبِّهَهُمَا من نومهما وكرهت أن أنصرف حتى يغتبقا، فلم أزل قائما على رؤوسهما حَتَّى نَظَرْتُ إِلَى الفَجْرِ، اللَّهُمَّ! إِنْ كُنْتَ تَعْلَمُ أَنَّ ذَلِكَ كَذَلِكَ فَافْرُجْ بِنَا، فَانْصَدعَ الحَجَرُ حَتَّى نَظَرُوا إِلى الضَّوْءِ، ثُمَّ قَالَ الآخَرُ: اللَّهُمَّ! إِنْ كُنْتَ تَعْلَمُ أَنَّهُ كَانَتْ لِي ابْنَةُ عَمٍّ وَكُنْتُ أُحِبُّهَا حُبًا شَدِيدًا، وَأَنِّي تَمَنَّيْتُهَا لنَفْسِي فَقَالَتْ: لا إِلَّا بِمِائَة دِينَارٍ فَجَمَعْتُهَا لَهَا، فَلَمَّا أَمْكَنَتْنِي مِنْ نَفْسِهَا قَالَتْ: لَا يَحِلُّ لك أن تفض الخَاتَمَ إِلَّا بِحَقِّهِ، فَقُمْتُ فَتَرَكْتُهَا، اللَّهُمَّ! إِنْ كُنْتَ تَعْلَمُ أَنَّ ذَلِكَ كَذَلِكَ فَافْرُجْ عَنَّا، فَانْفَرَجَ الجَبَلُ

حَتَّى كَادُوا يَخْرُجُونَ، ثُمَّ قَامَ الآخَرُ فَقَالَ: اللَّهُمَّ! إِنْ كُنْتَ تَعْلَمُ أَنَّهُ كَانَ [لِي] أُجَرَاءُ كَثِيرٌ وَكَانَ لَا يَبِيتُ لأَحَدٍ منهم عِنْدِي أَجْرٌ، وَإِنَّ أَجِيرًا مِنْهُمْ تَرَكَ أجره عندي، وَإِنِّي زَرَعْتُهُ فَأخْصَبَ، فَاتَّخَدتُ مِنْهُ عَبِيدًا وَمَالًا كَثِيرًا فَأَتَى بَعْدَ حِينٍ فَقَالَ: يَا عَبْدَ اللهِ! أَعْطِنِي أَجْرِي، قُلْتُ: هَذَا كُلُّهُ أَجْرُكَ، قَالَ: يَا عَبْدَ اللهِ! لا تتلاعب بِي. فَقُلْتُ: ما أتلاعب بِكَ، فَأَخَذَهُ كُلَّهُ وَلَمْ يَتْرُكْ مِنْهُ قَلِيلًا وَلَا كَثِيرًا، اللَّهُمَّ! إِنْ كُنْتَ تَعْلَم أَنَّ ذَلِكَ كَذَلِكَ فَافْرُجْ عَنَّا، فَانْفَرَجَ الجَبَلُ عَنْهُمْ فَخَرَجُوا".
