حَدَّثَنَا
يَحْيَى بْنُ حَبِيبٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا
خَالِدُ بْنُ الْحَارِثِ ، حَدَّثَنَا
مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَجْلَانَ ، عَنْ
عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مِقْسَمٍ ، عَنْ
جَابِرٍ ، ذَكَرَ قِصَّةَ مُعَاذٍ ، قَالَ : وَقَالَ يَعْنِي النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِلْفَتَى : " كَيْفَ تَصْنَعُ يَا ابْنَ أَخِي إِذَا صَلَّيْتَ ؟ قَالَ : أَقْرَأُ بِفَاتِحَةِ الْكِتَابِ ، وَأَسْأَلُ اللَّهَ الْجَنَّةَ ، وَأَعُوذُ بِهِ مِنَ النَّارِ ، وَإِنِّي لَا أَدْرِي مَا دَنْدَنَتُكَ وَلَا دَنْدَنَةُ مُعَاذٍ ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : إِنِّي وَمُعَاذٌ حَوْلَ هَاتَيْنِ ، أَوْ نَحْوَ هَذَا " .
Jabir narrated the story of Muadh and said: The prophet ﷺ said to a youth: My nephew, what do you do in prayer? He replied: I recited fatihat al-katab and I ask Allah for paradise and seek his refuge from hell-fire I do not understand well your sound and the sound of Muadh. The prophet ﷺ said: I and Muadh go around both (paradise and Hell-fire), or he said something similar.
