عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ عَنِ ابْنِ الْأَدْرَعِ قَالَ كُنْتُ أَحْرُسُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ ذَاتَ لَيْلَةٍ فَخَرَجَ لِبَعْضِ حَاجَتِهِ قَالَ فَرَآنِي فَأَخَذَ بِيَدِي فَانْطَلَقْنَا فَمَرَرْنَا عَلَى رَجُلٍ يُصَلِّي يَجْهَرُ بِالْقُرْآنِ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ ”عَسَى أَنْ يَكُونَ مُرَاءً“ قَالَ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ يُصَلِّي يَجْهَرُ بِالْقُرْآنِ قَالَ فَرَفَضَ يَدِي ثُمَّ قَالَ ”إِنَّكُمْ لَنْ تَنَالُوا هَذَا الْأَمْرَ بِالْمُغَالَبَةِ“ قَالَ ثُمَّ خَرَجَ ذَاتَ لَيْلَةٍ وَأَنَا أَحْرُسُهُ لِبَعْضِ حَاجَتِهِ فَأَخَذَ بِيَدِي فَمَرَرْنَا عَلَى رَجُلٍ يُصَلِّي بِالْقُرْآنِ قَالَ فَقُلْتُ عَسَى أَنْ يَكُونَ مُرَاءً فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ ”كَلَّا إِنَّهُ أَوَّابٌ“ قَالَ فَنَظَرْتُ فَإِذَا هُوَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ ذُو الْبِجَادَيْنِ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn al-Adra’ (may Allah be pleased with him), he says: One night I was standing guard for the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and he came out for some need. When he saw me, he took my hand. As we walked, we passed by a man who was praying and reciting (the Qur’an) aloud. The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: It is possible that this is someone showing off. I said: O Messenger of Allah! He is performing prayer while reciting aloud. But the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) shook off my hand and then said: Even if you try, you cannot reach this station. Ibn al-Adra’ (may Allah be pleased with him) says: Once again, I was standing guard for the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) at night, and he came out for some need. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) took my hand, and as we walked, we passed by a man who was performing prayer while reciting aloud. I said: It is possible that this is someone showing off. The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Never, rather he is a person who turns to Allah Most High very much. When I looked, it was Sayyiduna Abdullah Dhu’l-Bijadayn (may Allah be pleased with him).
Brief Explanation
Benefits: … The title of Sayyiduna Abdullah radi Allahu anhu was "Dhul-Bijadayn." The reason for this is that when he accepted Islam, his father had all his clothes removed and left him naked. In this state, he reached his mother, who gave him a large cloth. He tore it into two parts: one he used as a lower garment (tehband), and the other he wrapped over the upper part of his body. For this reason, he became known by the title "Dhul-Bijadayn." The literal meaning of the word "bijad" is a striped sheet. The more well-known narration is that he was an orphan and his uncle raised him. When he became Muslim, his uncle took everything from him, even the clothes on his body. [الاصابۃ: ۲/ ۳۳۸] (Abdullah Rafiq)
