Hadith 2030

(وَمِنْ طَرِيقٍ ثَانٍ) عَنْ عَبْدِ الْوَاحِدِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَوْفٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَوْفٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ خَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَتَوَجَّهَ نَحْوَ صَدَفَتِهِ فَدَخَلَ فَاسْتَقْبَلَ الْقِبْلَةَ فَخَرَّ سَاجِدًا فَأَطَالَ السُّجُودَ حَتَّى ظَنَنْتُ أَنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ قَبَضَ نَفْسَهُ فِيهَا، فَدَنَوْتُ مِنْهُ فَجَلَسْتُ فَرَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ فَقَالَ: ((مَنْ هَٰذَا؟)) قُلْتُ: عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ، قَالَ: ((مَا شَأْنُكَ؟)) قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ! سَجَدْتَّ سَجْدَةً خَشِيتُ أَنْ يَكُونَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ قَدْ قَبَضَ نَفْسَكَ فِيهَا، فَقَالَ: ((إِنَّ جِبْرِيلَ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ أَتَانِي فَبَشَّرَنِي فَقَالَ: إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ يَقُولُ: مَنْ صَلَّى عَلَيْكَ صَلَّيْتُ عَلَيْهِ، وَمَنْ سَلَّمَ عَلَيْكَ سَلَّمْتُ عَلَيْهِ، فَسَجَدْتُّ لِلَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ شُكْرًا))
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdur Rahman bin Awf (may Allah be pleased with him), he says: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) went out towards the tall date palms, entered among them, and fell into prostration facing the Qiblah. He (peace and blessings be upon him) remained in prostration for so long that I began to think that Allah Almighty had taken his soul. In any case, I sat down near him, and then the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) raised his head and said: Who is this? I said: Abdur Rahman. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: What happened to you? I said: O Messenger of Allah! You performed such a long prostration that I feared Allah Almighty had caused you to pass away. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: The matter is that Jibreel (peace be upon him) came to me and gave me this glad tidings: Allah Almighty says: Whoever prays for mercy upon you, I will send mercy upon him, and whoever sends peace upon you, I will send peace upon him. So I prostrated to Allah Almighty in gratitude.
