"إِنَّ ثَلاَثَةَ نَفَرٍ فِيمَا سَلفَ مِنَ الزَّمَانِ انْطَلَقُوا يَرْتَادُونَ لأَهْلِهِمْ فَأَخَذَتْهُمُ السَّمَاءُ فَدَخَلُوا غَارًا فَسَقَطَ عَلَيْهِمْ حَجَرٌ مُتَجَافٍ حَتَّى مَا يَرَوْنَ مِنْهُ خَصَاصَةً، فَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ لِبَعْضٍ: قَدْ عَفَا الحَجَرُ وَعَفَا الأَثَرُ، وَلاَ يَعْلَمُ مَكَانَكُمْ إلَّا الله فَادْعُوا الله ﷻ بِأَوْثَقِ أَعْمَالِكُمْ. فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ مِنْهُمْ: اللَّهُمَّ إِنْ كنْتَ تَعْلَمُ أَنَّهُ كَانَ لِى وَالِدَانِ فَكُنْتُ أَحْلُبُ لَهُمَا فِى إِنَائِهِمَا فآتِيهِمَا فَإِذَا وَجَدْتُهُمَا رَاقِدَيْنِ قُمْتُ عَلَى رُءُوسِهِمَا كرَاهَةَ أَنْ أَرُدَّ سِننَتَهُمَا فِى رُءُوسِهِمَا حَتَّى يَسْتَيقِظَا مَتَى اسْتَيْقَظَا، اللَّهُمَّ إِنْ كُنْتَ تَعْلَمُ أَنِّى إِنَّمَا فَعَلتُ ذَلِكَ رَجَاءَ رَحْمَتِكَ وَمَخَافَةَ عَذَابِكَ فَفَرِّجْ عَنَّا، فَزَالَ ثُلُثُ الحَجَرِ.

وَقَالَ الثانِى: اللَّهُمَّ إِنْ كنتَ تَعْلَمُ أَنِّى اسْتَأجَرْتُ أَجِيرًا عَلَى عَمَلٍ يَعْمَلُهُ فَأَتَانِى يَطْلُبُ أَجْرَهُ وَأَنَا غَضْبَانُ فَزَبَرْتُهُ فَانْطَلَقَ وَتَرَكَ أَجْرَهُ فَجَمَعْتُهُ وَثَمَّرْتُهُ حَتَّى كَانَ مِنْهُ كُلُّ الْمَالِ، فَأَتَانى يَطْلُبُ أَجْرَهُ فَدَفَعْتُ إِلَيْهِ ذَلِكَ كُلَّهُ، وَلَوْ شِئْتُ لَمْ أُعْطِهِ إِلَّا أجْرَهُ الأَوَّلَ، اللَّهُمَّ إِنْ كُنْتَ تَعْلَمُ أَنِّى إِنَّمَا فَعَلتُ ذَلِكَ رَجَاءَ رَحْمِتَكَ، وَمَخَافَةَ عَذَابِكَ فَفَرِّجْ عَنَّا، فَزَالَ ثُلُثَا الحَجَر.

وَقَالَ الثَّالِثُ: اللَّهُمَّ إِنْ كُنْتَ تَعْلَمُ أَنَّهُ أَعْجَبَتْهُ امْرَأَةٌ فَجَعَلَ لَهَا جُعْلًا فَلَمَّا قَدَرَ عَلَيْهَا وَفَّرَ لَهَا نَفْسَهَا وَسَلَّمَ لهَا جُعْلَهَا، اللَّهُمَّ إِنْ كنتَ تَعْلَمُ أَنِّى إِنَّمَا فَعَلتُ ذَلِكَ رَجَاءَ رَحْمَتِكَ، وَمَخَافَةَ عَذَابِكَ فَفَرِّجْ عَنَّا فَزَالَ الْحَجَرُ وَخَرَجُوا مَعَانِيقَ يَمْشُونَ ".

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."

bukhari:3465Ismāʿīl b. Khalīl > ʿAlī b. Mushir > ʿUbaydullāh b. ʿUmar > Nāfiʿ > Ibn ʿUmar

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).

[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."

ahmad:12454Yaḥyá b. Ḥammād > Abū ʿAwānah > Qatādah > Anas

[Machine] On the authority of the Prophet ﷺ , it is narrated that three people from the past generation went to visit their families. However, the sky closed in upon them and they sought refuge in a cave. A rock fell from above and blocked the entrance of the cave, leaving only a small gap. One of them said to the others, "The rock has fallen and no one knows our whereabouts except Allah. So, invoke Allah by your best actions." One of them said, "O Allah, if You know that I had two elderly parents, and I used to provide them with milk before my children and wife, and one day I could not find any milk for them until they had fallen asleep. When I came to them, I found them asleep. I hated to disturb their sleep by removing their mouths from my breasts, so I waited for their awakening. O Allah, if You know that I have done this for the sake of Your mercy and out of fear of Your punishment, then relieve us of our distress." One-third of the rock was removed. Another person said, "O Allah, if You know that I employed a worker and he completed his work except for a small part of it, and then he asked me for his wages, but I became angry and withheld his wages. Then, instead of paying him, I invested his wages, which multiplied until they became a huge amount. Now, he has come to me asking for his wages. O Allah, if You know that I have done this for the sake of Your mercy and out of fear of Your punishment, then relieve us of our distress." Another one-third of the rock was removed. The third person said, "O Allah, if You know that I had strong desire for a woman, and I requested her favors until she agreed, but she said, 'Fear Allah and do not break His covenant.' I abandoned what I desired and let her go. O Allah, if You know that I have done this for the sake of Your mercy and out of fear of Your punishment, then relieve us of our distress." The rock was then completely removed, and they exited the cave walking openly.

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)
