Majma al-Zawaid — Hadith 17573

عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - يَقُولُ : " إِنَّ إِبْلِيسَ قَالَ لِرَبِّهِ - عَزَّ وَجَلَّ - : وَعِزَّتِكَ وَجَلَالِكَ لَا أَبْرَحُ أُغْوِي بَنِي آدَمَ مَا دَامَتِ الْأَرْوَاحُ فِيهِمْ ، فَقَالَ لَهُ رَبُّهُ : فَبِعِزَّتِي وَجَلَالِي ، لَا أَبْرَحُ أَغْفِرُ لَهُمْ مَا اسْتَغْفَرُونِي " . رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ ، وَأَبُو يَعْلَى بِنَحْوِهِ ، وَقَالَ : " لَا أَبْرَحُ أُغْوِي عِبَادَكَ " . وَالطَّبَرَانِيُّ فِي الْأَوْسَطِ ، وَأَحَدُ إِسْنَادَيْ أَحْمَدَ رِجَالُهُ رِجَالُ الصَّحِيحِ ، وَكَذَلِكَ أَحَدُ إِسْنَادَيْ أَبِي يَعْلَى .
Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id al-Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: "Iblis said in the court of his Lord: By Your might and Your majesty, I will continually try to lead the children of Adam astray as long as their souls are in their bodies. The Lord said to him: By My might and My majesty, as long as they keep seeking My forgiveness, I will continually forgive them."
Ahmad recorded it, and Abu Ya'la recorded something similar, but he recorded these words: "I will continually try to lead Your servants astray."
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Awsat. The narrators of one of Ahmad's two chains are the narrators of the Sahih, and the same is true of the narrators of one of Abu Ya'la's two chains.
