اُردوEn
عَنْ أَبِي مُنِيبٍ الْأَحْدَبِ قَالَ خَطَبَ مُعَاذٌ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ بِالشَّامِ فَذَكَرَ الطَّاعُونَ فَقَالَ إِنَّهَا رَحْمَةُ رَبِّكُمْ وَدَعْوَةُ نَبِيِّكُمْ وَقَبْضُ الصَّالِحِينَ قَبْلَكُمْ اللَّهُمَّ أَدْخِلْ عَلَى آلِ مُعَاذٍ نَصِيبَهُمْ مِنْ هَذِهِ الرَّحْمَةِ ثُمَّ نَزَلَ مِنْ مَقَامِهِ ذَلِكَ فَدَخَلَ عَلَى عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ مُعَاذٍ فَقَالَ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ {الْحَقُّ مِنْ رَبِّكَ فَلَا تَكُونَنَّ مِنَ الْمُمْتَرِينَ} [البقرة: 147] فَقَالَ مُعَاذٌ {سَتَجِدُنِي إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ مِنَ الصَّابِرِينَ} [الصافات: 102]
It is narrated from Abu Muneeb Ahadab that Sayyiduna Mu’adh (may Allah be pleased with him) delivered a sermon in Syria and, mentioning the plague, said: The plague is a mercy from your Lord upon you, and a supplication of your Prophet, and for those before you, it was the cause of the death of the righteous. O Allah! Send down upon the family of Mu’adh their share from this mercy. After this, Sayyiduna Mu’adh (may Allah be pleased with him) descended from the pulpit and came to his son Abdur Rahman. Abdur Rahman said: (الْحَقُّ مِنْ رَبِّكَ فَلا تَكُونَنَّ مِنَ الْمُمْتَرِينَ) .... The truth is from your Lord, so do not be among those who doubt. Hearing this, Sayyiduna Mu’adh (may Allah be pleased with him) said: (سَتَجِدُنِي إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ مِنَ الصَّابِرِينَ) .... Soon, if Allah wills, you will find me among the patient ones.
