بَابُ: كَيْفَ يَدْعُو لِلذِّمِّيِّ؟Chapter: How to pray for a non-Muslim
Hadith 1112
حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ تَلِيدٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي عَاصِمُ بْنُ حَكِيمٍ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ يَحْيَى بْنَ أَبِي عَمْرٍو السَّيْبَانِيَّ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عُقْبَةَ بْنِ عَامِرٍ الْجُهَنِيِّ، أَنَّهُ مَرَّ بِرَجُلٍ هَيْئَتُهُ هَيْئَةُ مُسْلِمٍ، فَسَلَّمَ، فَرَدَّ عَلَيْهِ: وَعَلَيْكَ وَرَحْمَةُ اللهِ وَبَرَكَاتُهُ، فَقَالَ لَهُ الْغُلاَمُ: إِنَّهُ نَصْرَانِيٌّ، فَقَامَ عُقْبَةُ فَتَبِعَهُ حَتَّى أَدْرَكَهُ فَقَالَ: إِنَّ رَحْمَةَ اللهِ وَبَرَكَاتَهُ عَلَى الْمُؤْمِنِينَ، لَكِنْ أَطَالَ اللَّهُ حَيَاتَكَ، وَأَكْثَرَ مَالَكَ وَوَلَدَكَ.
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Uqbah bin Amir Juhani (may Allah be pleased with him) that he passed by a man whose appearance was like that of a Muslim. The man greeted with salam, so Sayyiduna Uqbah (may Allah be pleased with him) replied: «وعلیک ورحمۃ اللہ وبرکاتہ». His servant said to him: That man is a Christian. Sayyiduna Uqbah (may Allah be pleased with him) got up, went after that man, found him and said: Allah’s mercy and His blessings are for the people of faith, but may Allah grant you a long life and increase you in wealth and children.
